Chikmagalur: Women-Only

Chikmagalur has the vast expanse of coffee estates and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee that could make anyone fall in love with it. Little did we know that a handful of beans of coffee smuggled by a 17th century Sufi Saint would not just make coffee every household name, but also provide livelihood to the people of Chikmagalur.

About the Tour

Would you be interested in joining our hands on this refreshing getaway to Chikmagalur? It’s offbeat, beautiful, serene, and a power-packed itinerary that guarantees you utmost peace and a break from your busy routine life.

Chikmagalur has the vast expanse of coffee estates and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee that could make anyone fall in love with it. Little did we know that a handful of beans of coffee smuggled by a 17th century Sufi Saint would not just make coffee every household name, but also provide livelihood to the people of Chikmagalur. This also becomes the reason that the best coffee museum is in Chikmagalur itself. As a matter of fact, Chikmagalur, the land of coffee, is one of the least advertised places in Karnataka because it’s natural heritage is so rich that locals fear it would get destroyed by over-tourism.

Did you know that apart from coffee, Chikmagalur has also been generously blessed with many more natural wonders?

How beautifully Chandra Drona Mountain range dominates Chikmagalur and how curvy roads take us to the hidden waterfalls like in the wilderness of dense forests, simply captivates the visitors and makes them never wish to leave!

Mind you, none of these refreshing waterfalls such as Hebbe Falls, Jhari Falls, and Ukkada Falls are easily accessible but have to be reached by adventurous jeep rides followed by short walks. Chikmagalur is also home to the tallest peak in Karnataka, Mullyanagiri, which also forms a part of Chandra Drona Mountain Range. As a matter of fact, all adventures can be knitted together when it comes to Chikmagalur. Did you know that it is also home to Bhadra Tiger Reserve, and a safari through the tiger reserve has the highest probability of tiger spotting here, as it boasts of more than 33 tigers?

Last but not least, while returning to Chikmagalur from Bangalore, we get an amazing opportunity to stop at the historical temples of Halebidu and Belur, which are carved from soapstone, and exhibit a very intricate typical South Indian architecture. We would also visit the Bahubali statue in Shravanabelagola, which is the tallest monolithic statue in the world, and a pilgrimage site for Jains.

Trip Highlights

Your Itinerary

We will start (comfortable but non AC vehicle)  from our very first pick-up point in Bangalore around 4 AM. We do understand that leaving early in the morning is a treacherous job but this is the most optimal solution if we have to fully utilize this day in Chikmagalur.
Pick-ups: 4 AM – Sangam Circle Jayanagar, 4:30 AM -Majestic Bus Stand and 5 AM – Taj Yeshwanthpur.
Please note that we may add a few additional pick-up points once the final group shapes up. If you are directly arriving from the airport, then we can club you with other outstation participants and arrange a pickup for you at extra cost (but actual) cost. During the return journey on Nov 28, we will give complimentary airport drop-in main vehicle itself.
