==Etymology==
The word Hogenakal is formed of two Kannada words ''hoge'' and ''kal''. When the water falls on the rocks it appears as if ''hoge'' (smoke) is emanating from the top of the ''kal'' (rock) because of the force of the water, hence ''Hogenakkal'' (smoking rocks).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dharmapuri district - places of interest )〕 It is also called as ''Marikottayam'' by the people of Tamil Nadu.
