Jog Falls - Karnataka Jog Falls (Kannada-ಜೋಗ ಜಲಪಾತ ) are among the ten highest waterfalls in India, located in Shimoga District of Karnataka state. Created by Sharavathi River falling from a height of 253 meters (829 ft), Jog Falls is one of the major attractions in Karnataka tourism. It is also called by alternative names of Gerusoppe falls, Gersoppa Falls and Jogada Gundi. River Sharavathi splits up into four different tracks which are named in accordance with their perceived trajectories. Going from left to right respectively in the picture, the names and the reasons for naming are: - Raja (King): Named so because of its apparently 'dignified' and 'serene' fall. - Roarer: This stream appears out of a mass of rocks, making a tremendous amount of noise. - Rocket: Consists of a large volume of water streaming out of a small opening at a very high speed. - Rani (Queen), also called Lady: The stream has a winding, twisting trajectory, said to resemble the movements of a female dancer. Associated with the waterfall is the nearby Linganmakki Dam across river Sharavathi, and the hydro-electric power station that it serves. The power station has been operational since 1949, and is, at 1200 MW capacity, one of the largest hydro-electric stations in India and a significant source of electric power for Karnataka. The power station was previously named Krishna Rajendra hydro-electric project, after the King of Mysore at that time. The name was later changed to Mahatma Gandhi hydro-electric Project. It was served by Hirebhaskara dam until 1960. After 1960, thanks to visions of Sir M. Visvesvarayya, Linganmakki Dam, built across river Sharavathi is being used for power generation.
