Log Continued...

Once done with photography around, We continued our journey again towards the waterfalls. Since it was ghat road our speeds came down very much, and there were many blind curves with few bad patches around. Road was also inder construction, So gravels around. It was a quite a scary expereince for me because I fell already twice because of gravel on the road. , Raghu was ripping ahead of us on his fat footwear FZ. I remember that we have to take a right from the NH7 at Neredikonda village, its a small road as posted already by kiran. I will still doubtfull because there was no indication or board for it. The only board there was lying on the ground. So we enquired a guy over there to confirm that we are on right track.

Once every one arrived at the turning point, we started our ride back to waterfalls which was just 8kms away, Road was just 3mts wide with lots of patches and bumps, My pillion tejas must had great time . The road seems to be endless, it was like watching saas bahu serial which appears to end, but it doesnt, Out of from agricultural land we suddenly enter into dense forest, And temparature comes down quickly. Huge Teak trees around covering up sky with just small road, it was scenic beauty. Since I was in the lead, I got little time to stop and click few pics of my bike posing. , Then enters kiran who started clicking pics while I was posing along with my bike (My Avatar pic is shot by kiran ). Rest of the group reached the waterfalls and already parked their bike while we completed our small photosession and reached there. By the time I think adhish paid out parking amount, i.e. 10/- each bike . One parking done we moved ahead to gone down to see the waterfalls. I had gut feeling that every one would be definetly tired while they return. . Since I have already been to that place I was aware of it.

Reached the waterfalls, Bikes Parked. L->R Vishnu, Shashi & Booo.


Tejas, Enjoying the nature & He is relaxed now.


Lots of flowers & Butterflies in the lawn.




We had a two boards at the lawn, One board was intersteing to read which had some history about the waterfalls and its improtance, Another board was quite scary, Its said 408 steps. . I prefer to walk over the rocks rather than the steps which I felt was shortcut and can reach quciker than the steps. . Just after some time, We were able to see the top of the water falls, This part of the waterfall cannot be seen from the below. Check out the pciture below.

Top part of the waterfall.


After our small journey down the hill, we reached the bottom of the waterfalls, hmmmm..No water...this was my thought. But I heard localites saying that They havent seen this waterfall full since many years, So we can imagine how much rain is needed to fill it, This is very wide waterfall and slippery rocks. Last time I visited, We were not allowed even till the water since couple of days ago two students died as they slipped over the rocks. But this time, There was only a helpless gaurd who did nothing but blowing whistle. , By the time Me, kiran, Tejas & Shashi reached the bottom of the waterfalls...Prabhakar, Raghu, Shastry, Adhish & Vishnu were alread ready to have a bath under the water. Except me, prabhakar, kiran, tejas & shashi, rest all enjoyed the bath under the waterfalls. while taking the pics, we finisehd what ever snacks we had i.e. 4 moongdal's packets and two 500ml thumsup bottles along with a lays chips. . Humidity was high there and heat from the rocks was added twist to that. we were sweating badly and the guys in the water were enjoying. . Me, tejas & Prabhakr went till the mid height of the waterfalls where Booo, Adhish, Vishnu & shastry were enjoying open baths. .
