Overview

Discover the undiscovered with our enthralling trek to Netravati Peak, nestled within the heart of the UNESCO recognized Western Ghats. Our journey brings you close to nature, offering glimpses of the river Netravati, revered as one of India’s holy rivers, and a variety of diverse flora and fauna. Enjoy the rustic charm of this lesser-known trekking trail in the Chikmagalur district of Karnataka, a refreshing escape from city life.

The thrill intensifies as you ascend the 1520-meter-high peak, crossing majestic waterfalls, narrow streams, and thick woods while accompanied by the symphony of birdsong. Reach the peak and be rewarded with a stunning panoramic view that will leave you awe-struck. The Netravati Peak trek is not just a walk, it’s a journey into the lap of nature.

Our weekend itinerary covers everything from transportation and accommodation to meals and trekking guidance, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the adventure. After exploring the peak, we’ll visit the mesmerizing nearby waterfall and the historic Adi-Shaktyamaka Shri Annapoorneshwari Temple in Hornadu. Experience the wonder of Netravati Peak with Tripbae.

So on the off chance that you are exhausted of the city lights in Bangalore, at that point overlook everything and go along with us during the current end-of-the-week trip to Netravati Peak and end up amid nature.
