Last Updated on July 30, 2023
Tucked in the foothills of Mullyangiri range, lies the charming city of Chikmagalur. The land of coffee as it is often called attracts thousands of tourists every year for its verdant valleys and green vistas. If you are in Bangalore, Chikmagalur must be high on your weekend bucket list. Planning for some adventure with friends or looking for a serene family getaway – Chikmagalur has something for everyone.
But it’s not only that! If you travel to Karnataka , from anywhere in the world this monsoon- beauty is something you shouldn’t miss. Here is a road trip itinerary for Chikmagalur which will inspire you to plan a trip this monsoon.
The post contains affiliate links for tours, hotels etc. This means if you make any purchase through the links in the post, I may get a commission without any additional cost to you.

A Quick Outline
Bangalore to Chikmagalur Road Trip
Chikmagalur is located 240 km away from Bangalore and there are daily buses that you can avail for this trip. But the beauty of Chikmagalur is best enjoyed on a road trip. On a normal monsoon day, it will take about 5 hours to reach Chikmagalur with a short meal break. The route via NH75 is the fastest and the best route from where we stay in central Bangalore.
However, if you live near Tumakuru you can drive through NH 73. A major attraction on the route is the Jain temple of Shravanabelegola . A beautiful 900-year-old temple that houses the largest monolithic statue in the world is located here.
If you’ve read William Darlymple’s Nine Lives , you can’t miss this one. It’s one of the best books about India , and the very first chapter explores the ancient Jain traditions of India through his experiences at Shravanbelagola.
This break may extend your trip by a couple of hours as you need to climb 660 stairs to reach the temple! The next stop is at Hassan, followed by Belur and Halebeedu. You can stop at these places if you have a lot of time or simply follow the route and reach Chikmagalur.
So this is the route I suggest:
Bangalore –> NH75->Shravanabelegola –>Hassan-> Belur –> Chikmagalur

Chikmagalur Itinerary
Through my multiple weekend trips in this route, I have been able to explore the place well enough to plan the ideal Chikmagalur Itinerary. While I strongly recommend a 3-day trip for Chikmagalur, even 2 days are enough to enjoy the best of this little hill station near Bangalore . Here are three variations of Chikmagalur itinerary for you.
Ideal Chikmagalur itinerary for 2 days
I do not like the touch and go experience with attractions, and Chikmagalur is not a place for that either. You will feel like stopping at a number of places just to enjoy the views, there are many opportunities for trekking and exploring the coffee plantations. So, this is what you can do on an ideal weekend trip to Chikmagalur.
Day 1 in Chikmagalur Itinerary
Start early morning around 5 am. Reach your hotel by 11 am and freshen up. Then go for a trek to Mullyangiri if the weather is cool. However, if you visit in the dry summer, I’d suggest that you reserve the trek for the next morning.
Start with a jeep ride to the Jhari falls , then drive to Bababudangiri hills . Come back to the Chikmagalur town for lunch. There are many restaurants in the town as opposed to the countryside which has limited options.
Visit the Mahatma Gandhi Park, Basavanahalli lake and watch the sunset at Hirekolale lake.
If it’s too late you can skip Mahatma Gandhi park and Basavanahalli lake for the day.
Wake up early if you missed the Mullyangiri trek on day 1. If you have complimentary breakfast booked at your hotel, you can visit Mullyangiri at the sunrise and return to your hotel for breakfast and check out after that. Otherwise, give your feet some rest to make up for the exhaustion of two short treks on the previous day.
Check out at around 10 am, explore the tea and coffee plantations on your way to the Ayyanakere Lake . From here you can visit the Chennakesava temple of Belur or explore the temples at Halebeed . Then proceed towards Bangalore.
For first-timers, I highly recommend booking an excursion to Shravanabelegola and Halebeed here .
If you have an extended weekend you may dedicate a day for a tour of the Bhadra wildlife sanctuary or for the Kudremukh trek. Well, Kudremukh trek can be a weekend trip in itself.
Modified Chikmagalur trip plan for 2 days with family
If you are travelling with little kids or elderly family-members who have issues with mobility, you can still have plenty to do in Chikmagalur in 2 days. The last time I visited with my extended family we booked an Airbnb inside a coffee plantation. It was quite hot in the summer, so this turned out to be a good decision. This is a road trip itinerary you can consider in this situation.
Day1: Stop at the temples of Belur on your way to Chikmagalur, Yagachi dam, then visit Jhari falls, Mahatma Gandhi Park and Hirekolale lake
Day2: Explore the plantations, visit Belavadi (Halebeed).
And here’s a self-promotion ad-break.

Best places to visit in Chikmagalur in 2 days
So now that you have a rough itinerary let’s take a look at the best places to explore in Chikmagalur so that you can decide what interests you the most. Really, Chikmagalur district has so many gems that sometimes I feel that the label “weekend destination” does not do justice to it. The best thing about living in Bangalore is that you can keep visiting places like these every weekend, and still discover something new.
Mullyangiri Hills
With an altitude of 1950 meters, Mullayangiri is the highest peak in Karnataka. A trek to Mullayangiri peak is, therefore, the top attraction for adventure lovers. If you love trekking you can take the 3 km long route starting at Sarpadaari. This moderate level trek usually takes up to 1.5 hours to reach the peak. There is direct road connectivity to a closer point which is just 1 km from the peak and has steps leading to it. It takes only 20-30 minutes to reach the peak from here. I’d prefer this one on my first-weekend trip. However it was raining cats and dogs when we first visited Chikmagalur with our family, and our parents were clearly not prepared for the rise.
Honnammanna waterfall
After the trek to Mullyangiri take some rest and drive to Honnammanna. It’s just a cascade on a flight of stairs which the people seem to be rather crazy about. I am not a big fan of the place if you ask me, but it’s easily accessible and looks pretty. This is where you can indulge in some seasonal wild fruits, roasted corn, tea, and coffee.
Jhaari Falls/Buttermilk falls
Located deep inside a private coffee estate is the most beautiful waterfall of Chikmagalur – the Jhaari falls. It leaves up to its nickname Buttermilk falls especially during the monsoon. I still remember that scary drive in the hills last year when our vision was blurred by the monsoon mist. The mesmerizing view of the Jhari falls is what made our day. You cannot enter the coffee estate without hiring jeeps from that estate itself. Even walking was not allowed when we went, although I have read a couple of blogs mention that it is.
Bababudangiri Hills
Next on the same route is our second hill spot – the Bababudangiri hills. It is named after a Muslim saint Baba Budan who lived here in the 17th century. Legend has that he smuggled some coffee beans from Arab and sowed the first seeds of coffee here. Today Chikmagalur is called the land of coffee for the huge coffee production in the region. The views from the top of Bababudangiri hills is absolutely delightful. The place is also sacred to the Hindus as there is a cave which is believed to have been the residence of a Hindu saint, Sri Dattareya Swami. If fortunate you can get a glimpse of the rare Neelakurinji flowers which bloom once every 12 years.
Toy train at Mahatma Gandhi park
The Mahatma Gandhi Park is a large park decked in beautiful trees and flowers and a musical fountain. But the main attraction here is the Toy Train ride in the hills. The entry fee to the park is just Rs. 2 and for a train ride, the ticket price per person is Rs. 10. That is crazy cheap fare for a fun ride. Don’t expect too much from it, and you will thoroughly enjoy it. I especially loved the views from the train ride. It’s not a must-visit but a nice place to visit with family, friends and kids alike.
Coffee museum(closed on weekends)
Seriously, I don’t understand what’s the point of having a museum that remains closed on the weekends! But that’s what it is. Visiting the coffee museum in the land of coffee was on top of my bucket-list but we missed it anyway. If you visit on a working weekday and get a chance to visit it, do share with me your thoughts in the comments.
Sunset at Hirekolale lake
Now you may not have time for it in day 1 but if you do, drive to the beautiful Hirekolale lake. I am sure the sunset must be magical there. I visited the lake in the morning the next day and was charmed by its beauty even though I couldn’t capture it well in the rains. It is not very big, but one of the most beautiful lakes that I have seen.
Ayyankere Lake
Ayyankere Lake is another beautiful artifical lake in Chikmagalur. It’s historically significant because it is believed to have been built long ago and renovated in 1156 AD during the reign of the Hoysala rulers. There fascinating legends around the lake located 18km from the Chimmagalur town adds to its charm. The Shakunagiri peak rising to 4600 ft provides the perfect photgenic backdrop for the lake.
Coffee and tea plantations of Chikmagalur.
There’s not much you have to do to find a coffee estate in Chikmagalur. Most resorts and Airbnbs have one in the backdrop. Even if it’s not on the premises of your hotel, you will find it on both sides of the road when you are driving towards Mullyangiri. Some of the best waterfalls like the Jhaari falls and Hebbe Falls is located within a coffee estate. Although it is known for coffee, the landscape of Chikmagalur is also adorned by some large tea plantations. You can enjoy both on your trip. This is one thing you cannot miss when in Chikmagalur.
You can also experience aromatic coffee groves in Wayanad if you plan to visit Kerala.
Explore around Kemmangundi
If it’s your second weekend trip to Chikmagalur and you have already visited the places on my suggestive itinerary you can visit the nearby hill stations. One of the most beautiful hill stations near Chikmagalur is Kemmangundi, which is located in the same district Chikmagalur. You can trek to the Kemmanagudi peak, visit the famous Hebbe falls and the beautiful temples of the Hoysala period.
Bhadra wildlife sanctuary
Bhadra wildlife sanctuary is a part of the UNESCO natural heritage spots in the Western Ghats. Located between Chikmagalur and Shimoga, this site is home to 120 species of trees and 250 species of birds. A famous attraction here is the Bhadra dam built on the mighty Tungabhadra river. This place is known for adventure activities like jeep safari, water-rafting, rock-climbing, and camping.

Temples of Belur and Halebeed
Belur and Halebeed are the temple towns that you will come across on your way to Chikmagalur. The Chennakesava temple of Belur, built in 12th Century AD is the most prominent landmarks of Belur. The intricate stone carvings at this temple is a part of the Hoysala trail of South India. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Take a day tour of Belur and Halebeed with Get your Guide on a 3-day trip.
Where to stay in Chikmagalur?
Chikmagalur town is the best place to stay if you want to explore most of the places. But to appreciate the slow rural lifestyle in the Chikmagaluru district, stay at a place away from the town. On our first visit, we stayed at Sunrise Treebo hotel, a 3-star property near the Basavanna lake in Chikmagalur town. It was in the town-side and made it very convenient for us to explore the key places listed on my itinerary. On our second visit, we stayed at a homestay in a village at the foothills of Mullyangiri. We spent the whole morning exploring the coffee estate and the gardens in the property. The Serai Chikmagalur has raving reviews if you looking for luxury resorts.

A wonderful compilation of everything one needs to know about this place! We did plan for a getaway to Chikmagalur, this summer, but couldn’t materialize it. Shall peek in again into this post when planning a trip 🙂
Thanks Meenakshi. Plan a trip in August – October when it gets light showers.
I love how you always find these unique natural gems in India to take road trips to. This place looks so beautiful with those hills, waterfalls, and coffee plantations. And seriously who keeps a museum closed on the weekends. We are planning a trip to Belur Halebid sometime. I will try and include this wonderful Chikmagalur Roadtrip Itinerary too. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Soumya. I hope you include Chikgalur trip to in your itinerary. June to October is a great time to visit.
you have the best road trip ever! you have a beautiful view, and you can see the waterfall! you can have so many activities, i just can say “the best road trip!” thank you for sharing x
I cetraintly think of tea plantations. but I’d never have associated coffee with India. This sounds right up my street, I’ve visited coffee plantations in South East Asia, and love when you can sample all the different varieties. It was shame (and crazy from the managements part) that the shop is closed at weekends. Even in the wet weather, then place still looks stunning, much prettier than the cold uk rain we have.
Thank you so much. I am more of a tea lover, but my parents did buy freshly roasted and grounded coffee from the plantations we stayed at.
Thank you so much Becki for your comment. I am yet to visit south-east Asia, but m longing for a trip there. You will certainly enjoy the Indian monsoons in Western Ghats.
We had been to Chikmagalur and absolutely loved it. And yes, the trip to Bhadra is definitely recommenced…
Thank you so much 🙂
I’m a sucker for coffee! My typical day has atleast 4-5 coffees, and that is after I’ve reduced drinking coffee! So far, I’ve used coffee 4 times in this comment. So yeah, I luuuuuurve coffee!!! Hahaha…. I’ve been to a couple of coffee plantations but yet to visit Chikmangalur. Thanks for this itinerary! Good to know the Hoysala marvels are in the route from Bangalore to Chikmangalur. Bababudangiri hills look fascinating. The way you’re sitting at the tip looks just wow! I should definitely visit Jhaari falls as well!
Thanks Bhushavalli. You should definitely visit Chikmagalur and buy the freshly roasted coffee then. Jhaari falls is a must-see.
I absolutely love road trips and my favourite one was a trip to Coorg and Chikmagalur. Loved the greenery, plantation and the hills. We didn’t do any treks since I was with my kid but I loved exploring the Bhadra wildlife sanctuary. I was there during monsoon and loved the freshness it brought along.
Wow. I am yet to visit the Bhadra wildlife park but I loved the small treks.
That waterfall is amazing! Looks like visiting during monsoon season isn’t all that bad if you’re rewarded with such a view. Every time I read posts about India I am amazed at how diverse the country is and this is no exception. Coffee is definitely not something I would have associated with India, but now I know better. A great way to spend a few days in nature!
Wow! Chikmagalur sounds like the dream vacation that I didn’t know existed. I love coffee and trekking and your itinerary satisfies both. In particular, the Jabari and Buttermilk Falls look amazing. I like that you provided two itineraries for families and friends. Very helpful for planning purposes!
Thank you so much. I realise the struggle especially because our parents are not particularly used to travels
I haven’t been in Chikmagalur. It looks like a great place to visit. I love coffee so I think I’ll put this in my travel bucket list as this is considered as “The Land of Coffee.” Hope to book my ticket soon!
What a great idea to set out different itineraries depending on who is going to accommodate everyone. The thought of staying at an Airbnb on a coffee plantation sounds enchanting and practical. I also don’t understand museums that close on Sundays – don’t most people visit during the weekend? Great list of stops along the way too for a beautiful weekend (and those waterfalls look amazing!).
Thanks, Annick. Seriously, most museums are closed on Monday or some other weekday. Keeping it closed on both the weekends sound silly.
This is an elaborate itinerary for sure. I have been to Chikmagalur but I missed a couple of places. I did not know about the buttermilk falls. They look great. Coffee museum sounds great. I too don’t understand why are museums closed on Sundays or weekends. Loved the misty captures.
Thanks Manjulika! I am longing to visit again.
I am happy to have found this blog. It is an apt itinerary to follow. Keep posting!
Hi there. Really enjoyed reading this page

Where to stay in chikmagalur, chikmagalur hotels & accommodations.
Beautiful and quite location, scenic, great food, very friendly and helpful staff.
Its a good hotel. But they can improve on small things like replenishing water bottles in the room without being asked for it. They turn off the A/C in the dining hall while patrons are having dinner and it gets really stuffy. Its value for money is apparent only when you compare it with the other hotels in chikmagalur.
Thanks for cooperation

So finally I can say, due to the great stay at Taj, my trip to Chikmagalur was excellent.
peaceful friendly staff and very comfortable food need to improve
Good stay and staff was very good, parking was the only issue. But overall stay good.
Hotel is good but be careful while selecting the room since rooms size is very small. Its right in the middle of the city so good access to restaurants. Hotel manager is a decent guy and very helpful.
Mr.Leslie and his spouse takes care of the guest very much. You can be rest assured that you will be living in your own home outside your hometown. For a family vacation, its a very safe and economical stay. Moreover if we are on a long stay, we also have the place for you to dry your clothes.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.
Choosing your next vacation isn’t just about where you visit, but where you stay.
To help travelers book the vacation possible, Tripadvisor , one of the biggest online travel agencies, revealed its 2024 Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Awards — including the list of the world’s best hotels .
The list ranks destinations that received a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over the past year — out of 8 million listings, fewer than 1% achieved the milestone.
New York City is still one of the top tourist destinations in the world, so it’s no shock that three of the top stays in the US are right here in Manhattan: The Luma Hotel in Times Square, The Bryant Park Hotel and Casablanca Hotel by Library Hotel Collection, also in Times Square.
But although many people agree NYC is the greatest city in the world, none of its hotels made the list for the best stays on a global scale.
The top hotel in the world is the Hotel Colline de France in Brazil, according to Tripadvisor.
The luxurious stay was highly rated for its “sophistication and comfort” shown through its glamorous rooms and luscious spa.
The live piano music played at breakfast and complimentary sparkling wine were also nice touches.
“The hotel’s sensational design and warm atmosphere make it a unique choice for an elegant, yet cozy, getaway,” Tripadvisor said.

- Hotel Colline de France, Brazil
- OBLU SELECT Lobigili, Maldives

- Iberostar Grand Packard, Cuba
- Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa, Maldives
- La Siesta Classic Ma May, Vietnam
- Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya, Mexico
- Padma Resort Ubud, Indonesia
- Sofitel Mexico City Reforma, Mexico
The top hotel in the US is the Shore Hotel in Santa Monica, California, according to Tripadvisor.
The pet-friendly hotel stands out with its beautiful view of the ocean and eco-friendly but slick design — its proximity to the Santa Monica Pier also helps to attract guests.
Travelers also raved about the variety of food options, including the in-room breakfast options and the poolside bar.
“A stylish atmosphere and attention to detail ensure a fab stay for you and your furry friend,” Tripadvisor said.

Finland may not appear as regularly on the tourism wish-list as European heavyweights such as Spain or Italy , but it’s ability to cater to vastly different types of tourism means that it will inevitably start popping up on the radar.
Few countries on the continent can cater to beach holidays , Northern Lights excursions, island hopping and trips to the Arctic wilderness – but Finland is one of them.
Whether you want to ski in Lapland , explore some of its thousands of lakes in the Lake District, visit Santa Claus near the Arctic Circle or live like the world’s happiest locals in Helsinki, Finland caters to both the well-trodden and the unfamiliar in terms of potential holidays.
From the cool capital and historic cities to lakeside towns and national parks that provide a vast expanse of wilderness, Finland offers an abundance of the unexpected to the uninitiated. Below, we’ve rounded up a selection of the best places to discover in this part of the Nordics.
The capital of the world’s happiest country is always going to be an intriguing place. Helsinki contains some of the country’s most famous landmarks and attractions, from the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Ateneum (a space for Finnish art) to the Suomenlinna fortress and the National Museum of Finland.
What makes Helsinki particularly appealing, though, is the effortless fusion of nature and city life. Helsinki sits on the Baltic Sea, part of an archipelago of 330 islands, and is home to fantastic beaches and dense forests that make shoreside relaxation and hiking equally as accessible as dining out or shopping. Within the city, the verdant Esplanadi park and beaches such as Hietaniemi are the highlights, while a range of public saunas – Löyly is the most well-known – cater to outdoor swimming and easy relaxation.

- How this Finnish ‘sauna capital of the world’ helped me recover from burnout
Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland, and the centre of the winter wonderland around Christmas time. Those visiting during the festive period can enjoy a trip to the Santa Claus Village, where you can cross the Arctic Circle , go on snowmobile and husky excursions, and potentially see the Northern Lights.
For a great view of the Arctic landscape, head to the Syväsenvaara Fell observation tower. Once you’re done exploring the surrounding nature of the Arctic, take a trip to the Arktikum, which showcases Arctic history, or the Pilke House, a local science museum. For the more adventurous, the ski resort of Ounasvaara lies just 15 minutes away from the city.
Turku’s one-time status as the country’s capital means that it remains one of Finland’s foremost cities, and that is evident in its abundance of natural and architectural sites. The main landmarks include the country’s largest fortress (the Turun Linna), the magnificent Gothic cathedral (Turun Tuomiokirkko) and the old market square. Nevertheless, a host of museums – including the Aboa Vetus & Ars Nova, a museum that combines contemporary art with exhibitions on the city’s past, and the Forum Marinum, the city’s maritime museum – provide another insight into local history and culture.
Like Helsinki, Turku has managed to maintain its history and culture while also preserving the surrounding natural landscape. The Aura River is a focal point of the city – littered with bars and restaurants and ideal for a stroll or river cruise – while green spaces like the Kupittaa Park provide more opportunities for relaxing outside, as do the numerous saunas and beaches such as Ekvalla.
Saariselka and the Urho Kekkonen National Park
Saariselka is a popular choice for package holidays to Lapland, and during the winter months this is one of the country’s premiere tourists resorts. Though it is still picturesque in summer, the region – located high above the Arctic Cirlce – is a veritable winter wonderland when the snow is falling and the Northern Lights are visible (usually from September through to March).
This a destination for being at one with nature, from stays in glass-roofed aurora cabins and ventures around modest ski resorts to husky sledding, ice fishing, snowshoeing and snowmobile excursions. The town is also the gateway to the Urho Kekkonen National Park, an even more remote part of Finnish Lapland, and is also less than an hour away from Inari, the centre of Finland’s indigenous Sami culture.
If you’re visiting in summer, swap Lapland for Lakeland. Savonlinna is the place to come if you want to delve deeper into the reasoning behind Finland’s nickname as the ‘Land of a Thousand Lakes’. It spans two islands between the lakes of Haapavesi and Pihlavesi, and the serene waters and surrounding woodland offer some of the most beautiful summer scenery anywhere in the country.
Savonlinna is among the best summer choices for nature lovers and adventurers, with cycling, hiking, day cruises and various water sports all within easy reach. You’re right on the edge of the two national parks of Linnansaari and Kolovesi too, though do make sure to take some time to visit the 15th-century Olavnlinna castle. If you’d like to combine the arts and adventure during your stay, visit in July for the town’s annual opera festival.
A country with over 50,000 islands and thousands of miles of coastline offers as many beautiful beaches other countries in Europe. Hanko, a small town with a population of just 8,000 people, has 130km of pristine coastline – this is a lovely option for a day trip from Helsinki when the sun is shining on beaches like Hangö Plagen, Tulluddsstranden and Centrums Badstrand.
The fact that this is the sunniest area of Finland means that many do visit for beach days, but as well as lying on the sand and trying your hand at water sports, visitors can trek along the trails of the Tulliniemi Nature Path, explore castles in nearby Raasepori, and see the tallest lighthouse in the Nordics, Bengtskär.
Yllas is Finland’s largest ski resort, and one of two main resorts – along with Levi, around an hour away – that is an option for package ski holidays from the UK . Yllas is the more traditional village of the two, with 53km of pistes across 63 runs (the majority of which cater to beginner and intermediate skiers). For cross-country skiers, there are over 500km of trails in Yllas and the nearby Pallas-Yllästunturi national park.
Skiiing in Yllas often offers uncrowded slops, runs dotted with rime-frosted trees and even the Northern Lights dancing above you, as well as reliable, good-quality snow cover. It may not have the reputation of Alpine resorts, but for an altogether more laid-back, low-key ski trip, Yllas is an ideal option.
The village of Ylläsjärvi itself provides a hearty mix of Nordic and Finnish architecture and cuisine, as well as an ice spa and swimming pool (complete with a unique sauna gondola) and opportunities to try winter activities, from snowshoeing to ice fishing.
