  • This bridge had been the centre of activites of Jim Corebette while roaming in the jungles of Kaladhungi or surrounding areas.
  • Is this the bridge Jim Corbett writes about in Chapter one of Jungle Lore. He mentions the 'old wooden cantilever bridge over the Boar river at kaladhungi, listening to Dansay telling ghost stories...." ??
  • Most probably this is the very bridge Corbett talks about. However, it is now a steel structure.
  • The steel bridge is also old. Built in 1899. Please see pictures.
