Start your first day in Chikkamagalur by visiting the Mullayanagiri Peak, the highest peak in Karnataka with an elevation of 6,000 feet. The drive to the peak is through the scenic coffee plantations and the road leading to the top is surrounded by lush green forests. The peak offers a panoramic view of the valley and is also a popular spot for trekking and hiking. It's the perfect place to watch the sunset and experience the beauty of nature.
Spend your second day in the lap of nature by visiting the Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary, a protected area and a tiger reserve in Karnataka. Surrounded by the Western Ghats, the sanctuary is home to a variety of flora and fauna, including tigers, leopards, elephants, and gaurs. You can take a jeep safari or a nature walk to explore the sanctuary and spot these animals in their natural habitat. Don't forget to carry your camera to capture the beautiful landscapes and wildlife.
If you have more time, you can explore other places like Hebbe Falls or Kemmangundi Hill Station. If you have less time, you can skip the Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary and spend the day at the Coffee Museum or the Kudremukh National Park. Don't forget to carry comfortable shoes, sunscreen and insect repellent for your outdoor activities.
