The river crossing isn't always running
Tungabhadra crossing, Hampi, Karnataka
Published Oct 10, 2026 · RegretMap travel note
The situation
Hampi's sites are split by the Tungabhadra, and the boat crossing to the Virupapur Gaddi and Anegundi side is suspended when the water is high. The road around takes much longer.
What catches people out
Staying on one bank and planning your days on the other can strand you.
The lesson
Check whether the crossing is operating before choosing which side to stay on.
