Begin your journey with the intricate stone carvings of the Hoysala dynasty at Belur and Halebidu, renowned for their artistic excellence and historical significance.
At Yagachi backwaters, indulge in exciting water activities such as kayaking and speed boating amidst serene surroundings. Continue into the lush forests of Bhadra, where a guided vehicle safari may offer sightings of elephants, deer, and, with luck, elusive predators like tigers and black panthers.
Ascend to Mullayanagiri, standing at approximately 6,000 feet above sea level, the highest peak in Karnataka, offering sweeping views of the Western Ghats.
