Overview
A tiered waterfall on a Bhadra headstream that drops about 168 metres in two stages, the upper Dodda Hebbe and the lower Chikka Hebbe. It stands in the middle of a working coffee estate roughly 8 km below Raj Bhavan, and the last stretch is not driveable in an ordinary car: the accepted way in is a shared four-wheel-drive jeep from Kemmanagundi followed by a walk of about a kilometre, with stream crossings. Full and loud from June to about December; a trickle by March.
