TheMoyar River (alsoMayar)[1] is one of the tributaries of theBhavani, which itself is a tributary of theKaveri inTamil Nadu,South India.
The Moyar river originates from a small town called Mayar off the Masinagudi–Ooty road. This is a natural line of separation between the state ofKarnataka andTamil Nadu and a separation between the forest ofBandipur National Park and theMudumalai sanctuary to the south.[2] The Moyar meets theBhavani River at theBhavanisagar reservoir on the plains ofTamil Nadu nearSatyamangalam.[3]
The Moyar River Gorge also known as Mysore Ditch is 20 km (12 mi) long. The river flows into the gorge belowTheppakadu in a roaring waterfall called Moyar Falls.[4] There is a point in gorge where Sigurhalla river fromSigur Plateau joins it after forming a 3 kms long gorge.
