Take a break from your routine and join us for an exciting trek to Bamikonda, just 96 km away from the lovely area of Chikmagalur. This trek will take you through large, green forests that cover an area of 600 sq km. As you walk, you'll climb up to a height of 4645ft. above sea level, where you'll see the stunning natural beauty of Kudremukha. This fun Bamikonda trek starts with an overnight trip from Bangalore.

Experience the joy of trekking to Bamikonda, where you'll be treated to stunning views from the top of the mountain. This is an adventure you won't forget!

We offer two versions of the Bamikonda trek package - one without transport and one with transport from Bangalore. Choose the package with transport for a comfortable trip to and from Bangalore, saving you the trouble of dealing with public transport.

Highlights

  • Get ready for an amazing trekking journey that takes you through grasslands, forests, and several small streams as you navigate the rugged trails. This Bamikonda trek is not just about reaching the peak, but it's also about enjoying every bit of the journey.
  • What's more, if you finish the trek early, you may even get a chance to visit the invigorating Somvati Falls. It's an added bonus to your adventure, allowing you to unwind and soak in the soothing sounds of the cascading waters.
  • Once the day of adventure wraps up, it's time to relax. Sit around a bonfire at night, share stories, make memories and enjoy the warmth of companionship. This bonfire night will provide a perfect ending to an exciting day of trekking.
