WATERFALLS
Where gravity becomes poetry and water writes stories on stone
The Symphony of Cascades
In the heart of the Western Ghats, where mist weaves through ancient forests, water finds its voice. Each waterfall in Chikkamagaluru tells a different story—some thunder with monsoon fury, others whisper secrets to moss-covered stones.
From hidden gems accessible only by jeep tracks to sacred cascades blessed by centuries of devotion, these natural wonders invite you to witness the eternal dance between mountain and water.
Hebbe Falls
The Hidden Giant
Deep within coffee estates, where jeep tracks end and forest paths begin, Hebbe Falls reveals itself like a secret whispered by the mountains. Split into two dramatic cascades—Dodda Hebbe and Chikka Hebbe—this waterfall doesn't just fall; it dances down moss-covered rocks, creating pools that mirror the canopy above.
Thunder meets whisper, a symphony of falling water that drowns out the world.

Jhari Falls
Buttermilk Dreams
They call it Buttermilk Falls, where water transforms into a white veil against dark rock. Here, accessibility meets beauty—no arduous treks, just a gentle walk through coffee-scented air. Families picnic on smooth boulders while adventurous souls find hidden pools perfect for afternoon swims.
Gentle applause of water on stone, punctuated by children's laughter.
