Sathanur Reservoir

Reviewed By mageshmech - Bengaluru, India

After our temple visit in thiruvannamali, we went to this reservoir. i was visiting for the first time. The reservoir has so much of parks, children play area and statues around. We went during december, so the water level was full and had a nice view. the surrounding is very scenic and greenery. There is a crocodile bank which is must visit. Since the reservoir is a bit isolated into villages, we couldnt see much visitors even on weekends. But we should appreciate the staffs who are maintaining it very well. Good thing about this reservoir is one can go upto the top by car and park and then can walk on the dam to view the water level in reservoir. these days, in many reservoir they dont allow i guess. If initiatives are taken to popularize this reservoir, it will for sure pull visitors in volumes. Go for it!
