Overview

Chikmagalur trip from Namma Bengaluru

This is the highest peak in Karnataka at 1930m. That sounds exciting to us and that is the reason we are newly launching our Chikmagalur Trip  from Bengaluru! This is perhaps the best time to visit this place. Even our trek guides ask us to assign them to this place, that’s how amazing this place is. But I would say, don’t hype yourself up for this place(Yes, market it well so you can convince your friends to come along), but sincerely, come with an open mind. Something like, experiencing a movie without seeing the reviews. It is sometimes better that way; the plot is still not known to you. This is that “sometime” that will blow your mind.

Chikmagalur is a very popular trekking spot

Mullayangiri is the highest peak in all of Karnataka and is the best place to get a perfect view of the sun rising from behind the mountains.
