About Jog Falls Tour Package:
Jog Falls is a waterfall on the Sharavati River in Siddapur Taluk, Uttara Kannada District. Its viewpoint is located in Sagara Taluk, Shimoga district of Karnataka, India. It is the second-highest plunge waterfall in India. It is a segmented waterfall that depends on rain and season to become a plunge waterfall. The falls are major tourist attractions and are ranked 36th in the list of free-falling waterfalls, 490th in the world by list of waterfalls by total height, and 128th in the list of single-drop waterfalls in the World by the waterfall database. Jog itself is a Kannada word, which means falls. Jog Falls are unique as the water does not stream down the rocks in a tiered fashion; it thunders down the slope losing contact with the rocks, making it the tallest un-tiered waterfall in India. Also known by alternative names of Gerusoppe Falls, Gersoppa Falls, and Jogada Gundi, it is one of the highest waterfalls in India. During monsoons, one can see a breathtaking view of the falls with rainbows coming now and then. Jog Falls is a combination of four different falls Raja, Rani, Rocket and Roarer. Each of these falls from a different height, with the highest one, Raja, falling from 830 feet. The correct answer is Mahatma Gandhi Waterfall. Jog or Gerosoppa Waterfall was renamed as Mahatma Gandhi Waterfall. It is the second-highest plunge waterfall
