From Mangalore proceed 150 KMs via Udupi and Kundapur to Shirur. From here take a right turn to Tudalli (14 Kms), ahead and turn right to Athyadi (3 Kms). You can drive for another Km to the left from where the difficult trek of 3 Kms with an average elevation of 30 degrees in the wild Western Ghats begins to reach the base of this Kudumari falls also called Belligundi / Chakthikal falls. The path is almost non-existent and there is 200% chance of getting lost. So get a guide and a FAB. If you can reach the base early in the day, try to climb the entire ghat to reach the top. Better idea is to start from the top and descend. Reach Kattinkaru either from Kollur or from Shimoga - Sagar - Kargal. Another route is Thirthalli - Hulikal - Nagara - Kattinkaru. The view from the top and even around the base is breath-taking. Once again, don't go without a guide.
From here, Kosalli Falls is just 7 Kms away which involves comparatively easy trek of 3 Kms
