Bandaje Falls Trek via Ballarayandurga Fort

Trekking in the Chikmagalur district is a great feeling. But the Bandaje Falls trek? It is a whole other universe!

Rather than walking on concrete roads, you get to traverse rugged paths, dip your feet in refreshing waters, and then walk barefoot in grass. Just like nature (and your wellness coach) intended.

Instead of looking at the wallpaper of your laptop, gaze at the sunset colours that nature paints for you and only you!

From the heart of Bangalore city, Plan The Unplanned will transport you to a wonderland that will get your vibe back. Whether you are on a solo trip of self-discovery or want to reconnect with your band of friends, this trek is a bold first step.

You will get to see everything from carpets of green to twinkling starry skies; from cascading waterfalls to forts that tell tales of a time gone by. This trek will allow you to explore a relatively less-explored part of Karnataka. As you spend two days taking in the sights and sounds, we hope to offer you a chance to rejuvenate your mind and refresh your body. We guarantee that you will return to your old life, a whole new person!
