My favorite Place while I Solo Ride

 

Jog Falls

    As I visited Jog Falls during end of monsoon in early September, we saw plenty of pretty rain-fed waterfalls on the way. Driving through the beautiful Sharavathi valley, I stopped at many viewpoints – best being the Sharavathi suspension bridge over the ragingly flowing Sharavathi river. I drove through foggy roads surrounded by dense forests with picture-postcard gorgeous views. It was an adventure to drive through low visibility (just a couple of metres) due to heavy fog and rain.



Best time to visit Jog Falls, Karnataka - India

    Monsoon season is undoubtedly the best time to visit Jog Falls in Karnataka. We heard from locals that usually the gates of Linganamakki dam are opened on 15th of August (Independence Day in India) every year. So, August to October is the best time to visit Jog Falls, Karnataka. The weather will remain rainy, foggy and misty during this time, so keep your raincoats and umbrellas handy and be patient for the clouds to move away from the waterfall. You may find only a thin stream of water trickling down the hill if you visit the waterfall in any of the other months.

Everyone in group has different opinion and you are never free to do what you feel like. Being alone gives you this opportunity. If you want to waste one day lying down beside a river bank, you do it, without answering to anyone. 1.        Learn to be Independent When you are alone, in the middle of nowhere, you cannot blame anyone else for your problems.
