Bhadra Dam is situated on the River Bhadra very near to the towns of Bhadravati and Shimoga. It is located just off the National Highway No. 206 (Chittoor to Honnavar via Shimoga). We took a left turn off this highway after passing Tarikere, when we were driving from Bangalore to Goa. We passed the Bhadra Tiger Reserve and Wildlife Sanctuary at Lakkavalli, where the Jungle Lodges and Resorts have a nice resort called the River Tern Lodge.
We stopped for a while to admire the imposing structure of the dam, but did not venture further as it was around midday and quite warm and sunny at that time. We crossed the bridge over the Bhadra River, which is known to be a habitat for the marsh crocodile and monitor lizards.
The Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary nearby has rich flora and fauna, and it would be worth stopping for a day or two at the River Tern Lodge for a safari and a boat ride in the Bhadra Reservoir.
