2. The problem with hills is—hill stations!! They bulge with people—
mostly tourists and not travellers — who end up making them what
they want to see and not what they are.
Kemmangundi is one of the best kept secrets of Karnataka. Situated
serenely amongst lush green coffee plantation and scenic mountain
range, this little town promises relaxation and rejuvenation.
For the explorers, there are beautiful trek routes, majestic waterfalls
and some of the most magnificent sunsets.
And of course, a chance to meet travellers as crazy as you are! Aren’t
new stories the best take away from a travel?
3. So here’s is what we are doing:
Day 1:
Leave Bangalore at Saturday morning (6 AM—Lets be early birds for
once!!) Reach our destination by lunch. Enjoying the coffee estate.
Climbe up the famous Z point (a warm up for next day’s trekking). Con-
versation over dinner and bonfire. Sing, Dance and make merry!!
Day 2:
After saying hello! to early morning sun with our breakfast, we pack our
lunch and suit up in our trekking attire. We set out for Hebbe Falls
through an 8 km (one-way) trek. Back by post lunch, we pamper our
aching limbs and later, treat ourselves to dinner and BBQ .
Day 3: Wake up late (oh yeah! It’s a bonus day). Chill, enjoy the morn-
ing ride to Kalahatti Falls and leave for Bangalore post lunch. Reach Ban-
galore by 8PM.
Day 4 : No! this one is not a part of the trip. But I am sure you will still
be thinking of the kick ass time you had!!! :)

5. ODDROAD — THE WAY I LIKE!!
Have you ever wondered why you travel only to places others
have been to? Why all the travel planners/websites/information
brochures assume that you know where you want to go? Does
your heart desire to find out that one place which has just the
right mix of all you want to experience?
Unlikely that a regular way will reveal. Take the odd road. Even
things out!!
We are committed to give you travel destinations based on your
desire—hills, jungles, sea, mountains, river, architecture or a
combination of these. You decide and we will design!
And keeping with what Mr. Frost once said, taking the road less
travelled makes all the difference. We organize fix-dates trips (big
and small, every shape size and color and fabric) all round the
year! We believe that travel is more than just addition of sights
and ticking destinations off your list. The journey is every bit as
important as the destination. And the fellow-travelers, stories
shared and friendships cemented is the icing on the cake!!
