Abbi Falls, Madikeri (Coorg)

By -

Abbi Falls, also called Abbey Falls, is located at a distance of around 5 km from Madikeri city. It is the second most beautiful waterfall in the Coorg region. The word 'Abbi' means waterfalls in the local language of Coorg.

Abbi Falls is located inside a calm and pleasant coffee estate. The vehicles can go only to the entrance. From there, a downhill walk of about half a km will take us to the waterfalls. On the way to the waterfalls, we can view beautiful coffee plantations on both sides.

We can visit Abbi falls throughout the year, though the best season is during monsoon. During monsoon, the water flow is very high.

Coorg Travel Guide


Taking a bath in the waterfalls is not allowed. We can watch the beauty of waterfalls by standing in the hanging bridge in front of the falls. Don't miss Abbi Falls if you visit Coorg. It is one of the best destinations in Coorg, for sure.

Consecrated in March 2021, the 40 feet high Bala Murugan icon at Saveetha Medical College campus is the tallest image of Murugan in Chennai. Malaysia has 140 feet tall Murugan. In April 2022, the 146 feet tall image of Murugan was consecrated near Salem in Tamil Nadu. However, they are all stucco images. But, the one that we find on the college campus is a monolithic granite icon. Thus, it is the tallest stone icon of Murugan in the entire world. A stone weighing 320 tonnes was brought from Siruvambur near Wallajah, and it was carved to 140 tonnes to get this beautiful and gigantic sculpture. The entire temple complex is designed in the shape of the Devanagiri letter "Om", which can be appreciated in the aerial view.  The west-facing gigantic sculpture is located atop the star-shaped pedestal.

Navapashanam is an amalgam of nine poisonous herbs. It is said to act as a remedy for all types of diseases. It is believed that the Siddhas knew the secret formula to prepare this medicinal potion.  The sculpture of Murugan from the famous Palani is claimed to be made of Navapashanam. Similarly, there is a lesser-known temple near Chennai, which has a Navapashanam Murugan. In Hastinapuram near Chrompet in the southern outskirts of Chennai, in a congested lane called Masjid Street, this tiny temple of Bala Murugan is situated. Murugan, made of Navapashanam, is the presiding deity.  Jalakandeeswara Linga, Meenakshi, and the Siddha who found this temple are the other Murtis found in the temple. Happy travelling.
