Can anyone guess the place?? I dont think anyone can imagine Jog Falls like this. Jog Falls turned out to be Joke Falls when I visited the place post the monsoon season. There was hardly any water and the four falls namely Raja, Rani, Rocket and Roarer made me leave the place disappointed. The best time to visit Jog Falls is during the monsoons when the water gushes through the boulders with great force.
Signing Note: The biggest travel disappointment...!!
Route- Bengaluru- Tumkur- Shimoga- Sagar- Jog Falls
Distance- 385 Kms
This place is like this most of the time of the year , no surprise . Anyways did you go on the top of the falls . Its really wonderful experience .
ReplyDeleteThats really sad. I didnt know that you could go on top of the falls. will definitely try tht next time.

ReplyDeleteUh-Oh! :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to see Jog Falls when it's at its best (coz that means I get to see the pics :))
I hope the new year has been good so far. :)
I would definitely love to see in its full vigour. New year has been good so far.
DeleteThese pics are nothing like what i have heard--you must have been so disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI was expecting more water as I had been in the month of October. Was very disappointed to see this.
DeleteDisappointing for you, maybe but, looks quite beautiful in a photograph :))
ReplyDeleteMore water would have made the beauty a gorgeous one.
DeleteHi RN,
ReplyDeleteIt's okay, all of us face disappointments and letdowns. However, that bolsters the importance of tourist reviews and testimonials which can come in handy before visiting a tourist attraction. I wish you better luck next time around. :)

This was not a planned trip. I happened to pass by this place en route to Gokarna. Got to visit it during the monsoons.
Deleteyea quite a dry falls it is nowadays. even when i visited there last year pre-monsoon months, it was dry with a single flow of water. Not a beautiful view for any waterfalls but it is indeed a good click.. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you. I think the falls should be visited only during monsoons.
Deletethis is the only reason i havent visited the jog falls yet. we have been on that route a number of times, but never in monsoon... and going in monsoon isnt possible for me right now, thanks to school.. hope i can go someday though
ReplyDeleteMonsoons or immediately after it would be the apt time. This was not during summers but in October. So june to august would be the only time to see Jog in full splendour.
DeleteNice pics..But wondering to see the great falls like this !!!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Visit during monsoons to see it in its full fury. :)
DeleteNice write sir and wonderful pictures! We had been to Jog Falls during monsoon season and it was wonderful experience. Some tales are documented in my blog. Please have glance through if you wish: http://paadooru.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-day-long-stay-in-majestic-jog-falls.html
