Located
at a distance of 9km from the town of Madikeri, the Abbey falls produces
a spectacular sight of cascading water. Nestled amidst private coffee
plantations, the Abbey Falls provide a striking contrast to the sylvan
surroundings of Coorg. A narrow road winding through the green and dense
foliage of surrounding coffee plantations leads to Abbey Falls.
The gushing waters of the Abbey falls, tumbling down a rocky ravine,
results in a deafening sound that can be heard from a distance. During
the monsoon season, the Abbey swells with abundant seasonal rains with
water plunging down the mountain slope at enormous speed. The scenic
locales around the Abbe falls make for an ideal picnic destination.
