Kemmanagundi is a breathtaking hill station in the Chikkamagaluru district, famously known as the Royal Heritage Hill Station. Once the summer retreat of Maharaja Krishnaraja Wodeyar IV, it is renowned for its beautifully laid-out gardens, emerald green valleys, and mist-covered peaks. The area is a haven for trekkers and nature lovers, offering trails that lead to stunning viewpoints like Z Point. The cool climate throughout the year makes it a perfect escape from the heat of the plains, providing a serene environment filled with the aroma of coffee and wild flowers.
Hebbe Falls is one of the most iconic natural wonders in the Western Ghats, located within a private coffee estate. The falls are unique because they are split into two stages—Dodda Hebbe and Chikka Hebbe. To reach the falls, travelers must take a rugged jeep ride through forest terrain, adding an element of adventure to the visit. The water is believed to be infused with medicinal herbs from the surrounding mountains, offering a rejuvenating experience for those who bathe in its cool, misty spray amidst the dense jungle silence.
Bhadra Dam is a majestic structure built across the Bhadra River, serving as a vital source of water for irrigation and power in the region. Surrounded by the Baba Budan Giri hills, the reservoir creates a stunning landscape that attracts photographers and nature enthusiasts alike. The area around the dam is rich in birdlife, and the calm waters offer a peaceful setting for evening strolls. It serves as a gateway to the nearby wildlife sanctuary, blending civil engineering with the raw beauty of the Karnataka wilderness.
Kalhatti Falls, also referred to as Kalahasti Falls, offers a rare combination of spiritual significance and natural beauty. The waterfall drops from a height of 122 meters directly in front of the ancient Veerabhadreshwara Temple. According to local legend, the sage Agastya once prayed here. The water flows through rock carvings of deities, creating a mystical atmosphere. It is a popular pilgrimage site where visitors can enjoy the cool mountain water while experiencing the deep-rooted cultural heritage of the Malnad region.
