The Unchalli
Waterfalls
Unchalli Falls Heggarne, a dreamy hamlet in Uttara Kannada region, is just 35 kms. from Siddapur. A further 5 kms. trek from Heggarne through thick forests brings you to the striking Unchalli Falls. The sound of the cataract hurtling down the hilly tract shatters the peace of the forests and the sight of the falls is unforgettable.
Also known as Lushington Falls, these falls were first discovered by J. D. Lushington, who was the Uttara Kannada District Collector of the British Government at that time. The cascade is also called Keppa Joga because of the deafening sound it makes.
