Would you like to add more depth to your travels? Are you interested in exploring your own culture through travel and discovering valuable lessons from the past? Join us on the Hampi Heritage Trek. Witness the impermanence of everything as you explore the palace ruins, understand the significance of divine grace through visits to the temples, and embrace the philosophy that everything is temporary. In recognition of this, engage in the cliff jumping activity, seizing the present moment and living it to the fullest, as promised to each other.

Hampi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the northern part of Karnataka, India. It is an ancient village that once served as the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire, one of the most powerful Hindu empires in Indian history.

On Day 1, our itinerary begins with a visit to the Vijaya Vittala Temple, renowned for its Stone Chariot. Following this, we proceed to observe the Queen’s Bathhouse and explore Mahanavami Dibba with a short walk. Subsequently, we visit the Hazara Rama Temple and Elephant Stables. Next on the list are the Laxmi-Narasimha Temple and the Hemakuta Parvata. We conclude the day with a visit to the Virupaksha Temple.

On Day 2, we ascend Anjanadri Hill, identified as the birthplace of Hanumanji. Afterwards, we make our way to Sanapur Lake for a series of adventure activities before heading home.

We expect a certain level of cooperation from our fellow hikers. Your attentiveness to the basic requests from the Trek Lead is crucial for ensuring the safety of the entire group. At Tripbae, we do the best we can to benefit the group collectively.

Getting back to Nature

The lush greeneries, marvelous architecture of the Vittala temple and adventure sports like cliff jumping made the trip memorable. The trip was well organized and the trip lead was very helpful.
