Must Do Treks In The Western Ghats

Commonly known as the Green Route for its amazing view, it is considered to be a "trekker's paradise". It is also called as the 'Railway track trek'.

The track connects Hassan to Mangalore and passes through the western ghats. It passes through Yedakumeri and Shiribagilu and then joins Subramnya wit NH48.

Starting from Donigal to Shiribagilu via Yedkumeri, the trail surprises you with slippery bridges, eerie tunnels full of Bats, dense green forests, numerous waterfalls, not to forget the best of streams. The stretch has about 52kms long, covering over 50 tunnels and bridges with length of up to 200metres.
The best time to start the trek is early in the morning, around 6, in order to complete it before dawn, Initially it gets very difficult for those with fear of height, but that's what an adventure is all about?? You have to look down and watch when you would love to open your camera but you will get used to the walk and later find streams running beneath valley.
