The mighty Jog! This is one of the largest falls in India if I am not wrong and they did label that correctly. The fall is just humongous. The water falls from more than 100 meters tall cliff to a a pool below and it is very ferocious during the monsoon season. You can visit the top portion as well as the bottom, unfortunately we explored only the top as the time was running low. The bottom portion if I am not wrong can be accessed only through a long plight of steps. At the top of the falls, you can go to the edge of it and get scared of the steep fall to its bottom. It is a wonder that no one falls from the top as there are no railings at most of the places (may be due to the widening of river depending on the seasons). Monkeys are everywhere waiting to steel stuff from the visitors too. This is definitely an adventurous place which will pump your adrenaline to the max, and a must visit if you are near the area.
