Hi All,
This blog will be an informative blog for some one who is planning to go places in Karnataka.
Me and my 3 friends (Nirmesh, Chirag & Kushal) planned a trip for 3D/2N during September 1st week.
Day 1
Day 1
- We left from Bangalore in morning 6 am. to Ranganatha Temple. On the way to Ranganath Temple we also saw few more temples.
- Then we left for Madikeri reached there around 3 pm. Madikeri is like a central point from where we can go to other places.
- We left from Madikeri to Talkaveri. Its the origin point of river Cauvery. That place was awesome. The complete temple was covered by fog. You can climb up some 400 stairs and reach to a peak. We were not able to see after 20ft. Its about 1276 mt above sea level.
- Then we came back to Madikeri and stayed there.
Day 2
- Next morning we left for Dubare. Its famous for River Rafting. There are two versions a smaller one (7 km) and a longer one (11km). In the 7 km ride(Rs 500) there were 4 rapids and in 11km(Rs 1000) ride 7-8 rapids. This was an awesome experience. There is a small section in the course of river where you can swim. The guys there provide a life jacket and head gear. MUST DO
- Then we left from Dubare to Koppa. There we saw The Tibetian Golden Temple. Its a must watch. The temple is very nice and the best part was listening to the chants they were praying with drums and ghunti.
- Then we left for Mysore. We reached Mysore around 4:30. There we saw the Mysore Palace and the Vrindavan Garden. I personally found vridavan garden a waste of time. The crowd was comparable to the crowd in Mumbai Local.
- Then we stayed the night in Mysore
Day 3
- The next morning we left for Talkadu (Talkad). Its a temple.
- Then we left for Shivasamudram. There are two water falls Gaganachukki and Bharachukki. Those are a must watch. As it was rainy season they were at there best.. At gaganachukki we stayed in water for a while. Then we left for Bangalore and by 10pm we reached our home.
It was a nice and pleasant trip. We booked a car. In all we traveled 900km.
