Exploring Malnad's Natural Beauty for Two Days

  1. Day 1: Jog Falls
    1 hour 43 minutes (58.2 km) from Mangalore Airport

    Jog Falls is one of the highest waterfalls in India. The Sharavathi River plunges from a height of 830 feet, creating an incredible sight. July is an ideal time to visit as the monsoons bring an abundance of water to the falls. The misty atmosphere and the roaring sound of the falls create a serene environment. There are multiple viewpoints to witness the falls, and it's recommended to visit during the daytime for better visibility. The fall's surrounding area is lush and green, making it perfect for a picnic.

  2. Day 2: Kudremukh National Park
    2 hours 24 minutes (102 km) from Jog Falls

    Kudremukh National Park is a protected reserve area that spans 600 sq. km. The park has diverse flora and fauna, with rare species such as the lion-tailed macaque, Great Indian Hornbill and the elusive Bengal tiger. The park has multiple trekking trails, and it's recommended to go on guided treks. The park's most famous trek is the Kudremukh Peak trek, which is 10 km long and takes around 6 hours. The trek offers stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys. The park also has a beautiful waterfall called Hanumangundi Falls, which is worth a visit.
