Benne Hole Falls is a waterfall 36 km from Sirsi in Uttara Kannada, formed by a tributary of the Aghanashini River as it flows through the Devimane Ghat area of the Western Ghats. Its name joins the Kannada words benne, butter, and hole, a large stream, a reference to the soft flow of the falls.
The route runs from Sirsi to the village of Kasage, about 5 km short of the falls. The first 3 km from there can be covered by jeep, and the last 2 km are on foot.
