One of the numerous waterfalls
of the Western Ghats. This beautiful waterfall is at few
kilometers distance from the place Yana. |
|
Along with
the two huge rocks there is one more limestone rock
structure (which is quite small in size compared to
the giants) in the vicinity. When asked a localite said
the waterfall got the name as Vibhooti falls because
of this Lime Stone rock nearby.
|
|
Once the
Vaddi ghats are over you can feel the humidity of the
coastal Karnataka (Coast is few hours journey from here).
One will have to take a deviation at a place called Mabagi.
From here the water fall is around 3kms distance. Though
one finds few houses nearby the tentage and food are the
items one should pack. |

When we
visited this wonderful place we gave a visit to Yana also.
To our horror we saw roads under construction till the
foothill of the Giant rocks. In our previous visits we
enjoyed walking on a small path in the thick woods to
the place. One could not have imagined that there would
be a road sometime in future to Yana. Road for a four
wheeler. We believe it won't be long we have all the facilities
of a picnic spot. Why people are so fond of facilities? |
