Akkinkodlu waterfalls

Akkinkodlu trek has given me a lot of my needed adventures from the heavy downpour, middle of the jungle, to the difficult downer stream trek while we were all soaking wet. These are the kind of experiences that can definitely make better and tougher.
A simple hike for some might not be simple so always be ready, especially when the rain comes and the trail gets muddy and slippery that can make a supposed easy trail, difficult. And that’s what happened to me, to us, in Akkinkodlu waterfalls.
With a wonderful pleasant weather we drove car to Akkinkolu village, ride was very nice highly energetic and fully charged. We reached the village and parked our vechicle near by stream and started our trek.
The layers of the stream resembled some mini-falls with crystal clear water. It was white, so bright white then the body of the stream would eventually turn into a bluish colour. It’s is a perfect time for capturing moment, happy moments.
Rainy season had made its mark a wonderful stream we followed the stream started to walk against the downer stream. Throughout the walk was extremely wonderful but very dangerous since rocks are very slippery and a single neglected step could land any one in big injury and once in such a dense forest getting help is a dream.
We never expected that the trek would be that fast. But it was relatively fast and easy trek. It was just a 30 minute walk from the jump-off. I was catching my breath when I finally reached the small flat land and when I turned around I saw this beautiful. It’s tall about 60 feet. It was wide huge and majestic as the water touches the stream creates this dramatic mist of water.
Be careful with the rocks full of moss that when added with rain made very slippery. After a few minutes we all found our own spots to take some photos. We weren’t able to swim because it was already late and getting dark. We managed to reach the road before getting dark.

Madin Hole Waterfalls - Udupi

There is never ending excitement for monsoon treks every time there is something new happening and this time I chose Tombattu village know to have some real good waterfalls around, this place was very new to me I had heard that it to be quiet dangerous but that never deterred me from venturing there, I gathered information from my friend Rajesh Naik who knew few things and with a local friend and few articles I was all set to start..
So finally Sunday morning by 6.30 Me,Rohith,Ashok&Chandu started form Udupi & In between Sudheer, Mahesh& Mohan joined our team. Totally we are 7 with 4 bikes. Some places road was very bad and we struggled to drive, but it all part of this crazy adventure. After a long ride we reached this village & my friend’s relative joined to guide us.
He told he would take us to MadinHole Waterfalls, so we started to at 10. After 5 minutes walk we entered dense forest, by then it started raining. We crossed 3 streams, faced so many vipers on the way. Finally after one hour tough walk we reached the spot. When we saw the waterfalls we were awed by its beauty, such a huge & a very different waterfall surrounded by dark woods and hilly region; dense vegetation on the pinnacle, hanging creepers, and dark overhanging rocky cliffs made the falls more amazing.
You can enjoy various small waterfalls here which are about 15-20 meters high and main falls around 100 meters high. MadinHole is really a wonderful place where you can enjoy the beauty of the nature. We climbed one big rock to see enjoy more. We romanced with cold water sprays. Everyone took bath & enjoyed some time in this place, a wonderful soul stirring experience under a waterfall.
