Bangalore Weekend Getaways - Mekedatu (Goat’s leap)


Mekedatu is situated at 98 KM from Bangalore , 35 Kms from Kanakapura to be specific.

Initially you reach a Sangama,the rivers Kaveri and Akravathy meet at this spot.The river is mild and you can cross the river just walking through it.

Once you reach the other side of the river, you have a special bus which is very specifically for pickup and drop to the "Mekedatu", the exact point where the rivers flows ferociously between rocks. If you plan properly you can take snacks and trek up the hill to the spot of "Mekdatu".While coming back we also visited Akravathy dam.
