Jogigundi Falls
Jogi Gundi
A small waterfall just outside Agumbe village, reached by a short forest trail. Below it lie a deep pool and ancient caves.
About 3 km from the village, the falls are a roughly 1 km walk along a forest path from the parking area, making them the most accessible waterfall in Agumbe. Water from the Malapraba River flows over the rock face into a deep pool below, known as the gundi. Legend says an ascetic (jogi) once meditated in a cave beside the pool, which gave the falls their name. The pool is deep with strong undercurrents, so swimming is strictly forbidden. In the rainy season, watch out for leeches and slippery rocks.
