Bangalore to Agumbe Tour Package Itinerary
Day 1: Your journey begins with an early morning pickup from your preferred location in Bangalore. Our professional driver will guide you through the scenic route towards the Western Ghats. Upon arrival in Agumbe, check in to your hotel and freshen up. The afternoon is dedicated to exploring the lush landscapes and high-altitude vistas. Enjoy a comfortable night stay at your hotel in Agumbe after a delicious dinner at a local eatery.
- Barkana Falls: Barkana Falls is one of the highest waterfalls in India, located in the heart of the Western Ghats. Formed by the Seeta River, it drops from a height of approximately 850 feet, creating a magnificent sight amidst dense rainforests. The viewpoint offers a panoramic vista of the valley and is especially beautiful during the post-monsoon season when the water flow is at its peak.
- Kundadri Hill: Kundadri Hill is a massive rock formation rising above the clouds, known for its ancient Jain Temple dedicated to Tirthankara. The hilltop provides a 360-degree view of the vast green landscape and shimmering backwaters of the Varahi Dam. It is a peaceful location, ideal for meditation and witnessing the ethereal beauty of a sunrise or sunset in the mountains.
- Agumbe Sunset Point: Agumbe Sunset Point is a famous vantage point situated on one of the highest peaks of the Someshwara Ghat. On a clear evening, visitors can witness the sun slowly sinking into the distant Arabian Sea, painting the sky in vibrant hues of orange and red. It is a favorite spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts who visit Agumbe to capture its pristine beauty.

Day 2: Start your day with a healthy breakfast at the hotel. Today, you will explore the hidden gems of Agumbe, including unique waterfalls and research centers that define the region’s biodiversity. After a morning of exploration and lunch, you will begin your return journey to Bangalore. We will ensure a safe drop-off at your residence or the airport/railway station by late evening.
- Jogi Gundi Falls: Jogi Gundi Falls is a unique waterfall where the water cascades through a natural cave-like rock structure into a serene pool. Unlike traditional waterfalls, the stream here flows down a rocky slope, making it a safe and refreshing spot for a quick dip. The surrounding forest adds to the charm, providing a cool and shaded environment for travelers to relax.
- Agumbe Rainforest Research Station: Agumbe Rainforest Research Station is a premier field station dedicated to the study and conservation of the central Western Ghats ecology. It is world-renowned for its research on the King Cobra and offers educational insights into the rich biodiversity of the tropical rainforest.
