Crossing the river Tunga at Hariharapura

Crossing the river Tunga at Hariharapura

River Tunga. We had to cross the river. And we had three options –

  • By bus over the bridge
  • Via the hanging bridge that was half a kilometer away
  • By walk through knee deep water

And we chose the last option

Place: Hariharapura, 15 KMs from Sringeri in Chikkamagalur district.

He saw me. Stopped his work for a moment. Smiled at me & continued with his chores.

Crossing the river was quite an adventure. Trying not to get our clothes wet & along with carrying the camera. Though it was knee-deep, currents were pretty strong.

    nice pictures and to cross the riven in knee deep water will be a real thrill and ofcourse managing your camera that is much tuffer task but u have taken a calculated risk in going with camera and come out successfully
    be care full yar your camera is master piece and you must preserve it safe
