  4. 2:30PM: Pandavara Gudda
    1 hour 10 minutes (34 miles) from Manjehalli Waterfalls

    Drive to Pandavara Gudda, a hill that is believed to have been the hiding place of the Pandavas during their exile. The hill offers a panoramic view of the Western Ghats and is a great spot for trekking.

Recommendations

If you have time, you can visit the Sakleshwara Temple, a beautiful temple located in the heart of the town. You can also take a day trip to Kukke Subramanya, a famous temple dedicated to Lord Subramanya, located 70 km away from Sakleshpur. To maximize your fun, carry enough water and snacks as most of the places are remote and do not have many food options.
