Netravathi Peak Trek, Chikmagalur
Itinerary
The following detailed itinerary provides a day-by-day breakdown of your exciting Netravathi trek. From your late-evening departure from Bangalore to the moment you arrive back home, we've outlined your activities and experiences to make the most of your trip. Let's dive into the specifics.
Day 2
Beluru Temple, Samse Tea Estate & Drive Back to Bangalore
Wake up to birds and cool mountain air — no alarm clock energy here. After a relaxed breakfast and checkout from the homestay, we begin the drive back toward Bangalore, but not before making two worthwhile stops along the way.
First up is the Beluru Chennakesava Temple — a 900-year-old Hoysala masterpiece where every inch of the stone exterior tells a story. Even if you're not big on temples, the craftsmanship alone is worth 30 minutes of your time.
Next, we stop at the Samse Tea Estate — rolling green hills, the smell of fresh tea leaves, and a perfect backdrop for photos you'll actually use. Pick up some local tea to take home.
We stop for lunch en route (self-sponsored) before continuing the drive back. Depending on traffic, expect to reach your Bangalore drop point somewhere between 8:00 PM and 11:00 PM.
Note: Travel time on Day 2 can vary based on road and traffic conditions. Drop points are the same as your pickup locations.
