Shivanasamudra Falls is a cluster of waterfalls on the borders of Malavalli, Mandya and Kollegala, Chamarajanagara, in Karnataka, India, situated along the river Kaveri.
Shivanasamudra Falls is home to one of the first hydro-electric power stations in Asia, which was set up in 1902.
[2] The island town of Shivanasamudra divides the river into twin waterfalls.
[5] This is due to the Kaveri river itself splitting a few kilometers to the south into western and eastern branches.
There is another approach to the Gaganachukki falls from the Darga Hazrath Mardane Gaib (Imam Ali).
[8] Despite warnings being posted, people climb down the rocks and attempt to view the waterfalls from behind/top, resulting in many fatal accidents.
Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple located here is built in the Dravidian style of architecture.
Madhya Ranga is an ancient temple housing a beautiful idol, yet being located remotely sees few visitors.
