Coorg Tour

One of the most off the radar places on your Coorg Tour is the origin region of River Kaveri. This serene region lies in the laps of Brahmgiri Hills and originates at Talakaveri.

From here, it slowly makes its way down the hill and finally meets with the sea at the Bay of Bengal. While it turns twists to reach the sea, the Kaveri river creates some beautiful natural wonders like the Shivanasamudra Falls and the Hogenakkal Falls which tourists visit on their Karnataka Tour . The unique part about the Kaveri River is that it chose to travel 760 km rather than a mere 100 km to merge with the sea. It seems quite something if one thinks about it.

According to the legends, Shiva and Parvati married at the famous Kailash Parvat. Everyone was there at that point to witness the wedding, because of which the earth started to tilt. Since this could be fatal, Agastya Rishi was went to the South of India to keep the balance. He was initially not willing, as he didn’t know from where he would get his Holy water for his everyday rituals. Lord Shiva then proceeded to fill holy water in his pot and asked him to go. Agastya Rishi then went down to the South and sat there in meditation.

Many other stories speak about the origin of River Kaveri, and your guide will tell you all of them.

Reaching Talakveri

Talakaveri has located about 45 km from Madikeri , and you can easily plan a half-day tour from Madikeri. The drive is quite pleasant and you will find yourself relishing the soft pastures and rural life of Coorg.

Once you reach the main entrance, you will notice a large arch that reaches the Talakaveri Tank. If you stand near the arch you will see the large green valley brimming with layers of hills, all of them are indifference shades of green. It is so picturesque and scenic. It is like watching a painting.

Before climbing the stairs, wash your feet and then start your climb. This is a holy place, you do need to take off your shoes and socks before you start your climb.

The Main Temple Tank

People also take some of the water from the tank home, to cleanse their houses.

The Temples – Agastheeswara and Ganesh Temple

These little shrines have added another layer of allure to the entire surrounding. Agastheeswara was erected by Agastya Muni when he had come here to restore balance.

Talacauvery, Coorg Overview

Talakaveri is the source of the river Kaveri, located on the Brahmagiri hill (not to be confused with the Brahmagiri range further south) near Bhagamandala in Kodagu district, Karnataka. Kodavas erected a tank which is now considered as its origin. It is believed that the river originates as a spring feeding a tank or a Kundike and then flows underground to re-emerge as Kaveri some distance away. The place has a temple dedicated to the Goddess Kaveriamma is located next to the tank and bathing in it on special occasions is considered holy.

On the Cauvery Changrandi day, thousands of pilgrims and tourists flock to the stream to witness the rise of the spring's fountainhead, when the river water gushes up at a predetermined moment.  One can climb the 407 steps to the top of the hill to get a birds-eye-view of the evergreen forested land and the misty hills of Coorg. The most exciting thing about the hills is that even when one is standing on the uppermost step, one can still hear the temple bells ringing down below in the temple. If one visits Talakaveri during the rainy season, one will be greeted by the mesmerising sight of the origin of the Kaveri River.

Cauvery is claimed to be originated from this lovely place in Talakaveri Coorg, the sacred and beautiful Talacauvery. Interestingly not only is the river an integral part of the place but also of its name 'Tala' 'Cauvery'. The lush meadows layering the beautiful hills are one among the rare sights to behold across India. Located at a high altitude of over twelve hundred metres, the wonderful site is naturally located on the misty ranges of Brahmagiri. Talacauvery is one of the several best places to visit in Coorg .

Cauvery has been a muse to writers like N. Raghunathan and Shankar Ram along with various local singers and composers. Mother Cauvery's shrine is sacredly placednear her birth site, 'Brahma Kundike'. The legends doing rounds locally claim that converting himself into the body of a crow, Lord Ganeshaspilt the pot of the meditating sage Agasthya. He has concealed Cauvery within that pot. That was how Cauvery took birth as she flowed through the lands of Talacauvery. The site of the famous Shiva-linga at a height is believed to be the spot where the Hindu Lord Shiva himself confronted sage Agasthya. All these legends add a fine historic touch to the place.

Major attractions

Talacauvery is a pilgrimage which offers believers and worshippers from across the world a range of legendary ancient temples and shrines. Along with the ages-oldShiva-linga found here, the Hindu lords Vinayaka and the legendary Agastheeshwara have been honoured by the shrines built here during ancient times. The holy Triveni Sangam at Bhagamandala is the holy confluence of Cauvery, Sujyoti and Kannike which make it a sacred site. All these counts among the key attractions here. It distinguishes itself as a prominent feature and is an essential addition to your Coorg Tour Packages .

One among the greatest attractions here is the auspicious festival of Tula Sankramana. This October festival is said to be the birthday of Goddess Kaveri as she gave her darshan on Earth for the first time ever. Brahma Kundike's holy waters are flooded with worshippers which are breathtakingly decorated with lighting diyas as the sacred river suddenly appears momentarily during this time and then returns back to its origin. The mystery behind this unusual yearly event is still unsolved which make Talacauvery even more interesting place to visit in Karnataka.

Talakaveri (Talacauvery)

Talakaveri (Talacauvery), one of the most sacred rivers of South India and equally important for the living beings, this the origin point of the river Kaveri. At a height of 1300 metres in the Brahmagiri hills, it starts its journey from the small pond called ‘Kundike’. Though there are a lot of mythological stories related to its origin, the common fact is that the river was the effort of sage Agasthya. On his request to Lord Shiva for a river equivalent to river Ganga, Agasthya was blessed to have this Kaveri and he himself chose this place as the starting point. The river runs for around 750 km as a lifeline to Karnataka and Tamil Nadu states and merges with the Bay of Bengal. A small spring of water originates from this tank. There is a small temple for Goddess Kavery. The place also has shrines to Lord Shiva and Lord Ganesh. Pilgrims wish to take a dip here to clean away from the sins. The entire panorama is scenic and inspiring.
