Abbey Falls


Abbey Falls also known as Abbey Falls is at a distance of about 10kms from Madikeri Village of South Karnataka. Located Admist the Coffee Plantations, Abby Falls provides a beautiful resting place in the city. With the thunderous sound coming from the falls, it attracts all those who come to MEDIKERI and also those who do not visit this place. The Abbey Falls fall near the Coffee Plantations and the dense bushes and green tress where the Kaveri River cascades down the rock.

The roaring sounds of the falls are so much that they can be heard from a distance. The water flow is very high during the monsoon season which is also the best time to see the Abbey Falls. A hanging bridge is there which passes near the fall and gives a beautiful view of the Abbey Fall. Abbey Falls is surrounded by the greenery of the coffee plantations and the cardamom plantations.
