Barachukki

The eastern branch of the waterfall created by river Cauvery that flow around the island of Shivanasamudra is known as Barachukki. The waterfall has a height of about 69 metres. There is a narrow flight of about 200 concrete steps that lead down to the waterfall. The waterfall can be enjoyed from close quarters as there are shallow areas near the place where the water plunges. The way down to the waterfall is relatively safe as it fenced with railings and there are benches to sit on and relax for a while.
