Trek to Mullayanagiri - Bababuddangiri Peaks & Visit Kalahatti Falls- [2nd-3rd Oct, 2010] - Registrations are On

 

 

About Place:
275 Kms from Bengaluru, near Chickmagalur, Bababudangiri hills are heaven on earth in the Western Ghats . Luxuriant green grass, moss covered trees, sparkling waterfalls, rugged hills and pure air seems generously God gifted. The dense mist reduces the visibility to just a few meters. The wind almost blows you off the hill. Sometimes it appears as if the mountain has conspired with the rain and the wind and is trying to throw away the unwelcome intruders. Also the daytime temperature drastically falls from 34 C to below 10 C by nightfall.

There are very exceptional and challenging treks between Mullayanagiri, Bababudangiri and Kemmangundi. The trek from Kaimara to Mullayanagiri is steep. Mullayanagiri is the highest peak in South India standing at 1919 m. The 15 Kms trek along the ridges of the steep mountains crosses the Attigundi waterfall and concludes at Bababudangiri. One route will take you to the beautiful hill station Kemmangundi via Gali kere.
