SIGANDUR

Sigandur has a small
Chowdeshwari temple, but very famous and
powerful. This place is nearer to Jog falls as
well, near Sagar. Sigandur is just around 25
kms from Sagar. We reach one bank of the
Sharavati backwaters. The place is very
picturesque and scenic. You wont get tired of
capturing photos here. And travelling to the
other bank, where the temple is located is
much more fun, since we need to go in the
launch here. And they charge just 2 Rs per
head and 5 Rs per vehicle. There are two
launches. They leave every 15 minutes or so.
And it is worth it. If you want to go through
road only to Sigandur, you need to take a
much more longer trip. The last trip of these
launches is around 6 pm. So if you need to go
after 6, you need to take a different route
towards Nittur from Sagar.Sagar is around 70
kms from Shimoga.
