Trek to Gadaikallu peak & Bandajje Falls  - [28th - 29th Jan 2012]- Registration is On
 

About the place:

Gadaikallu peak:
A huge dome shaped inselberg near Ujire,Belthangadi taluk, Dakshina Kannada district. It is also known as Jamalabad fort, since it was used by brave warrior king Tippu Sultan in his battles against the British during the pre-independance days. The fort is more than 500 meter height, and its circumference at the bottom is about 4 to 5 kilometers. It is one of the most challenging trek in Rainy & Summer season. On the backdrop we can see the charming Sahyadris or the Western Ghats.

Bandajje falls :
Bandajje falls near Bandajje village is one of the most beautiful falls in Charmadi ranges falling from a height of 200 feet and can be reached from Dharmasthala via Ujire and Mundajje. The trek uphill is surely a difficult task especially during the summer.
