Edmuri Falls

Posting an entry after a long time!!!

Take-Off:This time we have choosen "Edmuri Falls" as our destination, as we want to keep our trip short. We have taken-off at around 7:30 AM from David's home, picking up Sateesh and Srini and gearing towards Edmuri Falls. The carrier this time is Srini's Baleno, which he had bought recently !!!! We had our breakfast at Kadu-Mane and then we reached edmuri falls by 11 AM, (we had two Pit-stops in between!).

@ The Place: We played in the water for a good time and had some jacuzzi-kind of effect from the falling water!!!! I witnessed some somer-saults and stunts from David, as he is a pro-swimmer. Then,we headed towards a hotel to have some lunch and managed to get some in a Dhaba, on the way to Srirangapatnam. After lunch, we then proceeded to Rangantettu Bird sanctaury. It is a good place for its topography and pleasant climate You can see some migratory birds there (if there any!!!)

Reaching the Place:: Edmuri falls is on the way to KRS dam and around 15 – 20 km from Mysore. Follow the sinage boards to reach there. Also, one can take right diversion on the Bangalore – Mysore highway after Srirangapatnam.

About the Place:As it is not a true waterfall and so do not expect gushing water falling from greater peaks. It is a good picnic sport and an ideal place to spend a day there. . The Ranganathittu Bird Scantury is nearby(approx.10-15 Kms). One can plan like going to Edmuri falls in the morning and then to Ranganathittu Bird Scantury  (If possible, lastly to Brindavan garden in the evening.)
