Hi,
Wondering whats Mekedatu,, Its the route where only a goat can cross the river.... Lets explore whats it is... Join us coming Sunday for this trip.. Book your seats before it gets blocked.. Kids are also welcome @ your own risk...
Mekedatu (Kannada:ಮೇಕೆದಾಟು) is a location along Kaveri in Kanakapura Taluk of Ramanagara District. Sangama is the place where Arkavati merges with Kaveri. From this point, about 3.5 kilometers downstream, the river Kaveri flows through a deep and narrow gorge. Mekedatu' means 'goat's leap' in Kannada). The name comes from an incident which is believed to have been witnessed by herdsmen in that area a long time ago. It is said that a goat being chased by a tiger made a desperate attempt to save its life by leaping from one side of the gorge and managed to cross over the raging river below, whereas the tiger did not attempt to replicate this feat, and abandoned the chase. The point where the goat leapt has widened since then from erosion caused by the river Cauvery.
