Abbey Falls

Located 8 km from Madikeri, it is one of the most visited places of Coorg. Part of river Cauvery, it is a small waterfall gushing from a height of around 60 feet. The small pathway from the car parking spot to the fall is flanked by coffee plantations from either side. A hanging bridge has been built across the falls to offer an unimpeded view to the visitors.

Coorg, like many other hill stations hasn’t been spared by the monsters of commercialization. Its proximity to Bangalore, one of the largest cities of India, attracts hordes of tourists every week. Despite being such a popular tourist destination, the place still exudes an innate charm and sublime character that brings joy to the solitude seeking traveller.
