  • Nature holiday destinations in Karnataka and being a responsible traveler

    Nature! The moment this word is mentioned your mind will associate different topics to it. Oftentimes nature is considered as a Mother of all. She is offering bounties selflessly to everyone on earth. Isn’t it unfair that all her love, caress, healing touch and basic necessities provided to human is taken for granted in these days. Always remember that you can never recreate what is destroyed in the nature. The water that we waste, trees that we cut, air that we polluted is nothing but a way of suicidal mindset towards the human life.

    These are not philosophies about nature but most essential information for our life that we all should know. Preserving nature doesn’t mean you have to hold placards and start shouting slogans on the streets. Simple steps like saving water by turning off the shower or switching to using a bucket for bath. You will be shocked if you find out how many liters of water is wasted during every shower. It is not sufficient you know about this, you should pass on the knowledge as a priority responsibility to your younger generation as well.

It is an evident fact that by visiting nature the percentage of relaxation is more compared to any other holiday ideas. Karnataka has a lot of destinations known for nature holidays.

  • The incredible trip to Malnad – Mindfullness at homestays

    Malnad is one of my favorite getaways in South India. In Karnataka this region has the best climate throughout the year. We are now having a travel partner like Travel Malnad where we can find incredible and unique stays. There are a lot of hotels and alternate stays for our trips these days. However, a travel partner with immense local knowledge can help us explore the unexplored. Since I have read a lot of blogs about travelmalnad.com I have chosen them as my travel advisor for all trips to and from Karnataka.

    Unique holiday option;

    Homestays in malnad are a unique concept for holiday connoisseurs like me. My previous trip was a combination of visiting to paddy fields, areca plantations, adventure, river rafting etc. I had squeezed ample time in this busy schedule read & finish a lot of my books that was pending from ages. Imagine you are sitting in the midst of paddy field holding your favorite book under the shade of a big tree. The sound of grass, rivulet, chirping birds around all add to the perfect meditative set up. You can call this perfect mindfulness. The relief and comfort your soul receives is unmatchable.

    Blissfulness of nature;

    The anointing touch of Mother Nature on our soul will be such that we forget worlds. My stress was all relieved in just one hour of blissful time spend amidst the nature. We often complain about time constraints when it comes to spending a few amidst breathing fresh air in nature. The holiday at homestays in malnad has become like a mindfulness meditation time for me these days. I run from all over India to Malnad and spend good time there before getting to my next task.

  • My memorable trip to Malnad in Karnataka

    I work as a business analyst in a renowned company at Bangalore. Many of my friends are from Malnad region. I used to see the photos posted by them during their hometown visits. This attracted me as I also love outdoor activities during my spare time. Nature as we all know is our greatest teacher from whom we draw inspiration.

    It was a long time for me from going on a holiday to relax for 1 year. I and my wife decided to explore Malnad this time for our trip. Our journey started from Bangalore in our SUV which was also waiting like us for a long drive.

    We were stuck in planning our effective itinerary till we bumped on TravelMalnad.com. The team at Travel Malnad is very professional and knowledgeable about the experiential holidays. Normally while planning a holiday there will be a lot of confusion about accommodation, sightseeing, best route, time management, itinerary, etc.

    To my surprise, Travel Malnad solved all my holiday planner complications with few hours of discussion and email correspondence. As I had less time between my office hours I congratulate Travel Malnad team for being so helpful in solving my problem.

    Destinations at close distance

    I lived abroad for many years before moving back to India on my new job role. We came across Malnad through our friends and TravelMalnad team. It’s surprising to learn that not many people are even aware of these places.

    These destinations are at a close distance from Bangalore. You can also go for a weekend trip if not a complete vacation. We as a couple loved traveling to any destination driving our vehicle and visiting Malnad was a blissful feeling.

    Our trip started in Bangalore with a welcoming morning drizzle. Our drive to the first destination, Thirthahalli began at 6 AM. We clocked a drive of 6 hours to reach for a lunch break at our designated stay.

    We were welcomed by a friendly host with a heartily smile on their faces. Malnad people are very good hosts with genuine hospitality intent. We just loved the way we were treated by our host. The authentic food served to us was amazing with varieties that we never tasted before.

    Malnad destinations;

    The places that we covered in Thirthahalli for the next 2 days were Kuppalli, Agumbe, Kundadri, Kavaledurga, Varahi, Chibbalagudde. All places we went were like a testimony to the grandeur of Mother Nature. Our drive to all these places as comfortable as they are well connected by a state highway.

    Since we traveled during the weekdays the places we visited were less crowded. Ample time for photography and bird watching based on the inputs given to us by Travel Malnad team.

    After completing the itinerary for Tirthahalli we embarked on a journey of 2 hours to Chikmagalur. The coffee land of Karnataka had an equal number of sightseeing to cover for us like Thirthahalli. We stayed in a cozy cottage right in the middle of a great coffee estate. I was new to the coffee planters’ life and watched it closely.

    It’s amazing we get to meet cultures and lifestyles by visiting places. We appreciate the effort agriculturists put to maintain greenery in these areas with their cultivation. As visitors, we should acknowledge the efforts of people living full-time in these tough terrains.

    Coffee country of Karnataka;

    As we were in Chikmagalur for 2 nights we wanted to cover maximum places. We went to the hills, played in the waterfalls, and took a wildlife safari. You name it, they have it in Malnad region for your perfect getaway experience. We took some of the best pictures to date amongst all our holiday clicks.

    We got a chance to do coffee estate tours, factory visits and coffee curing works in Chikkamagaluru. All our itineraries and planners were designed and fine-tuned by Travel Malnad. Thanks to the user-friendliness of the portal and great customer support.

    We had plans to head to Coastal Karnataka from here but work beckoned us to Bangalore. We returned to Bangalore with loads of memories to share with our friends and peers. When we told our travel story everyone jumped on their toes for planning their trip with TravelMalnad.com with our inputs.

    We were glad for choosing Malnad as our holiday destination than traveling to an unknown country. The reason we loved it so much because the Malnad people are friendly to the guests.

    2. Open parties prohibited – Consuming alcohol in public is anyway prohibited. Beware of strict rules which can put you in trouble if you have parked a vehicle roadside and consuming alcohol.
    3. Camping Rules – Do not fall prey to Trekking and Camping companies running their business without prior permissions from concerned local authorities. They won’t help you when you are caught camping in an unauthorized forest or hilltop location.
    4. Trekking Rules – If you are planning for a trekking in Malnad then you need forest entry permissions. Most of the reserve forest in this region have strict rules. Speak to your host or hotel owner before venturing into unknown forest areas.

    6. Bird-watching – Carry binoculars and stand at a distance to watch birds. If there is a nest around then beware it’s a bird’s home and needs privacy.
    7. Wildlife – There are several wildlife safaris organised by Govt of Karnataka. Do not venture into forest in the name of adventure and animal spotting. There are cases of wildlife animal attacks because of tourist negligence.
    8. Campfire – We can give you campfire at our Malnad Homestays during your stay. Do not venture into open fields or paddy fields in the name of ‘enjoying in nature’.
