Shivanasamudra Water Falls

85 Kms from Mysore, river Cauvery gushes down a 75 meter deep gorge in form of two waterfalls (Gaganachukki & Barachukki). These falls are best during the monsoons, nevertheless their beauty mesmerises tourists throughout the year. Its a nature lovers paradise. Shivanasamudra has India's first Hydro-Electric Power Station which was set up in 1902 by the then Maharaja of Mysore.
