Hanumana Gundi Falls

Hanumana Gundi Falls is a multi-tiered waterfall within Kudremukh National Park in the Chikkamagaluru region. The water flows over natural rock faces in a series of cascades that descend gradually down the hillside.

Stone steps were built along the hillside during the late 20th century to improve visitor access to the waterfall base. This construction project made the site easier to reach for people exploring the national park.

The waterfall takes its name from the Hindu deity Hanumana and holds meaning for people living in the surrounding Western Ghats region.

You will descend a lengthy staircase through forested terrain to reach the base of the waterfall. Visiting early in the day helps you avoid crowds and take advantage of better natural lighting.

The water splits into separate streams at multiple points before converging at the base pool. This creates a visually interesting pattern when viewing the falls from different vantage points along the descent.
