Kokkare Belluru

Bheemeswari

Just drive some 1000 Kilometers from Bangalore off the Kanakapura Road to reach Bheemeswari which is a small town standing on the beautiful banks or river Kaveri. The river here is known for its treasures of Mahseer – a fresh water fish that has always excited anglers and leisure fish catchers. Professional anglers from all across the continent visit Bheemeswari for camps and spend months here with a hope to catch a Mahseer. This place offers international standard camping and accommodation facilities with delectable food.

You may take up private vehicles to visit Bheemeswari and the best time for a visit here is from August to February when famous fishes and other breeds are in abundance. The fishes here are just to be angled and not eaten as the fishes are not killed here.

Hogenakkal

It is a collection of many astounding waterfalls and you may need to hire a boatman to reach the waterfalls and a ride through them. The main excitement here is to reach closest to the gushing waters to enjoy the splash or to get wet under it. You can also observe wonderful rocks here that are carved into eccentric but beautiful shapes by the falling water. Winters and after monsoon months are best times to visit Hogenakkal. Avoid being here in summers as the afternoons get too hot. You may book cheap flights to start early in the morning to keep away from heat.
