Kodachadri: Nestled in the Western Ghats, Kodachadri is a mesmerizing hill station renowned for its lush greenery, misty hills, and stunning sunsets. This picturesque destination is a haven for trekkers, offering scenic trails that lead to its peak, which stands at an elevation of about 1,343 meters. From the top, visitors are rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes, including the majestic Mookambika Wildlife Sanctuary. Kodachadri is not only a trekker's paradise but also a place of spiritual significance, as it is believed to be the meditative abode of the great philosopher Adi Shankaracharya.
Hidlumane: Located near Kodachadri, Hidlumane is famous for its enchanting waterfalls. The Hidlumane Falls, a series of cascading waterfalls, offer a refreshing retreat for nature enthusiasts. The trek to Hidlumane Falls is an adventure in itself, passing through dense forests, rocky paths, and serene streams. The sight of water gushing down from a height, surrounded by verdant foliage, is a true delight for the senses. It’s an ideal spot for those looking to experience the raw beauty of nature and enjoy a rejuvenating escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
