TUMBE


It was a cool evening when we started our ride towards Tumbe, a village situated at distance of 20 KM's from Sagara town. There is nothing much to see there except there backwater of Linganamakki dam. I would like to say that it's not worth of visiting this place from far away places.

We left sagara at sharp 3 in the afternoon. I had heard that many sagara people especially students do visits here occasionally. Four of us were riding on 2 bikes. I thought this wouldn't be a much impressive place to visit as I was feeling quite normal while riding bike for about first 5 KM's. But suddenly I was amazed to see the road being covered by green thick forests. I was excited and increased my speed. But I was forced to put brakes by the bloody curves.

After riding for about 30 mins we were there present in the place. It was a calm place where there were no one except us. I felt like water was resting in peace. The cool breeze was hitting our face. We took some snaps. We sat for about half an hour simply looking at the nature and I loved it. The chirping sound of birds was cooling our ears.


We started back at evening 6 though I was not interested to return back. Actually I wanted to spend some more time there but unfortunately it was late and we were forced to return back. It might be a simple ride in the countryside but for me, it was a special one.

HOW TO REACH:

Roadways: I told you in the beginning itself that it's not worth of visiting this place from far away places.
You have less buses running in this area. From Sagara town you have take the route of Varadhalli ashram. And take right diversion after traveling for about 3 KM's. Take the help of villagers. There are many chances of getting lost.


Railways: The nearest railway station is situated in Sagara itself.

             BALEBARE GHAT           -CHANDIKESHWARI TEMPLE            -BALEBARE GHAT    Befoe visiting this place, I had heard from many people that , this is a holy place and people visit here from far away places to perform pujas. I was amazed when one of my cousin also gave me  review about this temple (actually he won't believe in superstitions and worships). Normally I travel through the Balebari/Hulikal Ghat(where this temple is situated) to my home (Sagara) from Udupi. I was stunned to see that all the vehicles which passes through this Ghat were stopping there for a while. Even our bus stopped there, and conductor collected kanike (money given by devotees to temple)from us and returned back with kunkuma (a red powder for religious markings in India). Later I got to know from the local people that this is the strongest god which saves the traveller ,who travel by t...

THE MAYURAVANA HOMESTAY                                  Situated in the foothills of the Chandradrona hill station and surrounded by the coffee estates, the two day stay gave us a heavenly experience. It is situated in the village named Mallenahalli which is 12 Km's from Chikkamagaluru town. The village itself has many myths and stories behind it. The host told that the Giris (hills, particularly mullayanagiri, Bababudangiri, Seetalayyanagiri and Deviramana betta) gives birth to many water source which runs through their village, and that medicinal powers of the water are absorbed in the land. So it is a kind of spiritual place. And he also told that no one dies of snakebite in that village. It was evening when we reached there, we were welcomed by a warm coffee and some homemade snacks. Later after freshen up , the host took us for a estate walk. The estate is spread over 12 acr...
