Embark on a captivating journey along the Karnataka coast, where spirituality, natural wonders, and breathtaking landscapes converge. This tour takes you through some of the region's most iconic destinations, each offering a unique experience.
Murudeshwar Beach and the World's Tallest Shiva Statue
At the serene Murudeshwar Beach, the awe-inspiring sight of the world's tallest Shiva statue awaits. This magnificent statue, set against the backdrop of the Arabian Sea, stands as a symbol of divinity and peace. Explore the expansive temple complex, where intricate carvings and depictions of mythological tales captivate the imagination. As the day ends, the pristine beach offers a tranquil setting to witness a mesmerizing sunset.
Jog Falls: India's Second Tallest Waterfall
Experience the grandeur of Jog Falls, India's second-highest plunge waterfall. Unlike tiered waterfalls, Jog Falls cascades in a single, powerful stream, creating a spectacular sight as water rushes down from a great height. The lush green surroundings enhance the waterfall's beauty, making it a paradise for nature lovers and photographers.
OM Beach and Gokarna Temple
OM Beach in Gokarna is a place of peace and serenity, known for its unique shape resembling the sacred 'OM' symbol. The gentle waves and long shoreline invite visitors to relax and absorb the tranquil atmosphere. Nearby, the ancient Gokarna Temple stands as a revered site, offering a spiritual experience amid natural beauty.
Yana Caves: A Natural Marvel in the Sahyadri Range
Deep within the Sahyadri range lies the mystical Yana Caves, featuring two towering limestone rock formations named Bhairaveshwara and Mohini. These rock formations are not only geological wonders but also hold religious significance, with a self-manifested Shiva Lingam and an idol of Goddess Parvati within the caves. A 3-kilometer trek through dense forest leads to this enchanting site, where the rich biodiversity and tranquil environment provide a perfect backdrop for exploration and meditation.
This Karnataka Coastal Tour promises a blend of spiritual exploration, natural beauty, and cultural richness, offering an unforgettable experience along India's stunning coastline.

It was my first trekking experience and I am glad I planned it with the best. Overall experience was very great. The weather, the people, the view everything at its best. Wandering souls made my first trekking experience memorable. Looking forward to planning more trips with them.

Trekking with wandering souls was a safe and good experience. The team leads were genuinely caring and made sure of everyone's safety despite having a large group.The trek was well designed and it also had an introduction session which served as an icebreaker and made the batch more friendly towards eachother. The crowd was decent and blending, you can meet and make new friends. It was my first time trekking with a group and I would join them soon 💪🏽👍🏽
