Trekking through the mighty western ghats

trek through the purple hills
trek through the purple hills
Kodachadri is a natural heritage site that towers
above
the jungles. To get to the top one needs a four-wheel drive to climb through a boulder strewn path surrounded
by
the forest on one side and deep valleys on the other. If this isn’t memorable enough, the 30-minute trek opens
up
at a peak where you’ll find a temple, said to be the spot where the philosopher Adi Shankaracharya meditated.
Both
the trek and the view from up there are exhilarating.

KODI BENGRE Kayaking down the backwaters
New Udupi is surrounded by backwaters of Kemmannu,
interwinding with estuaries which makes it prime kayaking territory. The backwaters are also home to many
islands
(some of them uninhabited) best explored on a kayak. Aside from the thrill it provides, kayaking is great way
to
stay fit. On Sunday mornings it is a common sight to see kayakers heading up the river to seek new adventures.
