Once left the highway for Hunsur the ride was little bit bumpy, could not sleep at all. We reached Srimangala , our lodging place by 5 am in the morning. Its was beautifully view of the hills in the morning .
Saturday day one, we planned to make a short trek to near by hill in Srimangala and then will go to Irpu water fall. After having our breakfast, we went for a short trek near by hill.
We returned back to our base-camp by eventing, At the basecamp they arranged for bonefire , played Antaksari and danced to Bollywood tunes.
Sunday, After breakfast …….all of us were geared up for the real task ……..trek to Brahmagiri. we reached Irpu fall by 9:30am. As to enter into the Brahmagiri Wildlife Sanctuary, you need to be escorted by a forest guard(our guide for the trek). we started trekking for brahmagiri. As we entered the forest area we are greeted by leeches. Around 3 to 4 km stretch was full with leeches, could not enjoy the scenic beauty, most of the time busy removing leeches form our shoes.
Once we cross this stretch ……..we were in green grass covering all the hills……..its just looks awesome. “Welcome to heaven ” any where you look……….greenery……..and greenery.
we spotted some wild animals, but before i could capture dome photos with my camera …….run away seeing humans entering there area. Most of the trek was easy not much difficult for second timer trek. Only the last part of the trek was steep and taken real energy to climb to the top.
we reached at the top by 2:30 pm. Clouds are passing by……..sudden drop in temperature…..little bit rain……….poring down. We stayed there for an hour …….enjoying the beautiful scenery of western ghat.
It took less time to get down……..back at irpu fall…….had a chilled bath. Then had for Bangalore …………………..
