Day 1: Drive to K-Gudi
Left Bangaluru at 6:30AM. Effortless drive to hit Mysore road. Being a Thursday very less crowd on road. Awesome breakfast break at Kamat Lokruchi. Do not miss Porri with Aloo and their Akki rotti!!
Entered Jungle check-post at 11:30am. The roads are great and drive is scenic.
JLR K-Gudi:
JLR K-Gudi is setup in as any JLR is at a best spot. Full of nature. Food is great. Courteous staff.
We got hot nice food followed by little rest then went for a safari. The safari rides starts right on dot. When we went it had just rained and opened. There were lots of weeds grown. This made any animal spotting very difficult. Nevertheless, the forest setting, smell, cool breeze brushing you all of it is breathtaking.
Spotted serpent eagle, kingfishers,turtles, malabar squirrels,many other birds.
Day 2: Safari and awesome drive to BR hills:
JLR greets in the morning at cottage with a super hot coffee/tea. We head to safari after that.
Early morning Safari in chilling weather is even better. The guides have a lot of explanation about the forest trees and many interesting facts.
Safari started on dot 6:30AM and went on till 8:30AM.
Breakfast is super hot and tasty.
Giridharshini-BR Hills:
After sumptuous breakfast headed to scenic drive to BR hills. The entire road route is scenic.
Our stay is in Giridharshini a homely small quite homestay in a small coffee estate. Friendly host and great room with a view. The window here is awesome!!
Do not miss nature walk from here, it's a 10minute walk to a forest bungalow. You are above the cloud!
We visited this place twice. Once in the evening once in the morning.
BR hills temple too is in a picturesque location.
Don't miss view from behind temple.
Day 3: Misty morning
We visited the view point again, till top any car can reach. Do try.
After breakfast we left for bheemeswari. In bheemeshwari we stayed at Green peace home stay. Another peaceful scenic home stay amidst 100 acre pomegranate farm. Simple food, great location. They have a view point within campus. We visited it in the morning and in the evening. It gives real nice feel of the whole place. They have man made small pond. Refreshing swim in that we did.
Gnalu falls is 3KMs from here. Suppose to be stunning during season. We didn't try.
Day 4: Muthathi
Drive to Cauvery wild life sanctuary is 10KM. Spotted a pack of wild dog here. We reached Muthathi. It's a scenic place but spoilt but crowd :(.
Drive to the Muthathi is scenic don't miss it!
Returned to Bangalore with more love for Karnataka!
