Beyond Hampi - A twist to your regular Hampi Vacation


A private patio with swingbeds overlooking the paddy fields, palms and a landscape of boulders.
A peaceful walk thru paddies to the river bank.
An early morning lakeside bicycle ride.
Let the relaxed vibe of Hampi Island hit you !!!
It will be as much Tranquil or as much Hippie as you want.



Try this - Go to any travel agent, travel portal or google (for our slothful readers) and ask them about the places to visit in Karnataka. All of them, unanimously, will suggest you the ruined remains of Hampi. Once the capital of Vijayanagara Empire, Hampi is a village in the northern Karnataka about 13 km from the town of Hospet, the nearest railhead. Located along the banks of the Tungabhadra River, the remaining ruins of Hampi also known as Group of Monuments at Hampi is listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Task #2: Again go to any travel agent or travel portal and ask them about the options for sightseeing in and around Hampi. They will bring out the newly printed flashy pamphlets with all the information about the places in Hampi. Even though the pamphlets are new, the information will be same as you would have got it, 10-15 years ago. Most of them will take you to the tried and tested places like Virupaksha Temple, Vithala Temple Complex, Tungabhadra River, Shivlinga, and Zanana Enclosure among other touristy places. But Hampi is much beyond these famous places. We at HFL present to you what we are known for, taking you on a tour past Hampi. Definitely a road less travelled.

Virupapur Gadde- A rural location but famous as ‘Hippie Hideout (for obvious reasons)’, Virupapur Gadde is located near Virupaksha Temple but on the other side of the river Tungabhadra. This place is filled with lodges and paddy-facing cottages. The place is a delight for the bouldering enthusiasts. Adventure freaks can satisfy their adrenaline rush over here. Some of the guest houses even offer it as a complimentary service. Do enquire about it. Given the risk involved, if you are trying it for the first time, do it under proper guidance.

Shanthi Guest House
Anjaneya Hill - For all those Ramayan lovers or Ram and Hanuman worshippers, a visit to Anjaneya Hill is a must. Hanuman, the monkey god was born to Anjana thus he got the name as Anjaneya and his birthplace came to be known as Anjaneyadri or Anjaneya Hill. The place can be reached from Hampi by crossing the river on a coracle. There is a whitewashed temple on the hill top, which helps in making the hill easily spottable. A white path of zig -zag steps leads to the temple. The journey to the top of the hill takes about 45 minutes. Everyday Ramayan is recited inside the temple in Hindi and not in the local Kannada language. If it is not a special occasion the temple is thronged by very few people, thus giving you ample opportunities to soak into divine blessings. The panoramic view from the top of the hill is absolutely breathtaking. Who knows, it might even kindle the poet in you and pen down a beautiful prose.

Sanapur Lake - Created as the man-made lake reservoir of the Tungabhadra river, Sanapur Lake is one place which will evaporate all off your worries, tension and sorrows to infinity. Though the place doesn’t hold any historical importance but it is a must visit place for all tourists going on an off-beat Hampi trail. Lake is a delight for the shutter bugs as the place offers scenic sunrise and panoramic sunset and nature's other offerings in between and beyond. The place also houses some of the cheap accommodation options for Hampi travellers.
Sanapur Lake
Anegundi - The older brother of Hampi, Anegundi is located on the northern bank of Tungabhadra River. It is considered to be one of the oldest plateaus of the world dating back 3000 million years ago. Hence many localities refer to this place as the maternal home of mother Earth. This place also holds relevance to all mythology lovers, as this place is believed to be the monkey kingdom of Kishkindha in epic Ramayana. 


The best way to experience Anegundi is to stay at Uramma Heritages Homes or Cottages - A rural hospitality initiative aimed at restoring old properties by keeping their unique architecture and heritage intact. 





For all those people who have already visited Hampi next time try the above off beat destinations and for those who are yet to visit it, do include these destinations into your itinerary as it leave you stupendous.

A Weekend with Wine - Heritage Winery

"Achche din aane wale hai" - This is what we could infer from the onset of the pre-monsoon showers that had briefly rescued Bangalore from the harsh summers. And the best part - Breezy and cloudy days providing a perfect stage for a longdrive. So after considering various equally beautiful options like Lepakshi, Devaryandurga and Madhugiri, we finally zeroed down on Heritage Winery for a day trip on 21st June. The plan was to start by 10.30 in the morning, reach there by 12, experience the wine tour followed by a laidback lunch at the inhouse Epulo Restaurant. Lazy Saturday morning and late breakfast ensured that we started @ 12 after picking up our friends from Electronic City. The route was straightforward and the drive, smooth. We reached the winery in less than 2 hours. There are plenty of sign boards put up on Mysore Road indicating the route, thereby making it impossible to miss the left turn after Channapatna. The last 3-4 Kms were bumpy with no road in sight, but the peaceful country-like surroundings make up for the kachcha road.





With everyone feeling hungry and the restaurant being the first thing we saw as we entered, the plan was altered to accommodate lunch first and everything else later on. Now since I had read some good reviews of the place, I was really looking forward to having a good meal there. The start was good as everything on the menu except quail was available (I have mostly observed that restaurants with limited web presence, generally shrink their menu). We ordered most of the wines on the menu as none of us wanted to miss a chance of having wine in a vineyard. For starters we ordered potato-n-cheese croquettes, chicken-a-la-kiev, BBQ wings and for the mains veg strognoff, herbed rice, chicken-la-king, grilled chicken, chicken bolognese. While everything we ordered was fresh and decent (certainly not great), the quantity left a lot be desired. The service was a bit slow but the staff was courteous. The restaurant manager Mr. Balaji updated  us later that they are planning to come up with a tented accommodation facility and a bigger restaurant :). A stroll through the green vineyard post sumptuous lunch fine-tuned the beautiful experience.



Even though it wasn't the finest of restaurants we have been to, the overall experience turned out to be a memorable one. May be it was the green surroundings, the open air restaurant or the wine - The place had a certain feel-good factor, thereby making an enjoyable experience for all of us.








Report Card:

Ambience - Good 3.5/5
Service - Good 3.5/5
Food - Good 3.5/5

We ordered 10 glasses wine, 3 starters, 5 main course and 2 desserts. The bill came to Rs. 3200/-

Over-all: Good 3.5/5 


Will I Go Back - Daytrip + Family/Friends + Wine + Laidback = I know where to go !!!




P.S. A heads-up for the people planning to take the wine tour- please be ready to bear the mild stench of rotting grapes if you are visiting outside harvesting season.

Nilgiris - The Coldest Summer Getaway for Bangaloreans

Once upon a time, in other cities of India people used to envy our city of Bengaluru for its charismatic and ever soothing weather. Not so hot and humid summers, cool but not chilled winters and wet but romantic monsoon. This is how the seasons used to present themselves to the people of Bangalore. But those are past.To escape these pains we have to remain confined within the artificial environment of our home or office.

Monday to Friday you are forced to sit on your reclining office chair and stare in front of the computer, well-guarded from the sun’s menace and then go home and again sit on your couch in front of your grand LED-TVs within the comforts of your home. But why do you have to do this on the weekends, even when God has gifted the Bangaloreans with some fantastic hillside locations in the Nilgiris. You can go on a trip to tried-and-tested ‘the queen of hills’ Ooty & Coonoor. The innumerable valleys and lakes of Red hills, acres and acres of plantation in Kotagiri and the high peaks of Avalanche hills, the Nilgiris has so much to offer that you will be spoilt for choice.  The best thing about Nilgiris is that it lies between 1500 to 2600 above msl, making it the highest and the coldest hill stations in comparison to the likes of Coorg, Wayanad & Chikamagalur. Bunk the coziness of your home, get out and experience how to it feels when the natural cool breeze strikes against your face and send you in trance.




Udhagamandalam,Ootacamund or Ooty, the queen of the hill stations is the first name that pops out when we think about the Nilgiris. Even though we have to been to this place gazillion times and it has changed from a weekend hideout to a money raking commercial tourist center; the place still has its charm and manages to burst your stress, the moment we step upon this serene world. The Rose and Botanical Gardens, the lake, the famous Nilgiris Mountain Railway aka the toy-train and its steam chugging locomotives, ‘The queen’ has lots to offer that you can ask for.



Coonoor, the second most popular hill station in the Nilgiris, is also conferred with lavishly staged or spectacular display of natural beauty. Coonoor is the most commonly visited place for bird watchers for the place is full of beautiful and rare birds including black woodpecker, parakeets, barbets, mynas, cuckoos, Malabar trogon, Malabar gray hornbill, crested hawk eagle, and crested serpent eagle. Though secondary in importance to Ooty, Coonoor offers a more secluded retreat, away from the crowds that throng Ooty. Blessed with a milder climate, Coonoor also offers some of the finest hiking and trekking in South India, which will enable you to be closest to the rolling mountains and lush green foliage of this hill resort.



Kotagiri - A jungle trail that takes you to a small stream or passing the lush green tea estates and a magnificent Mayo River, a viewpoint providing some of the most spectacular and ‘instagram’ moments that you don't even think exists, a 4 km trek up to the sacred Rangasamy Pillar or splashing waters and having the moment of the life under Catherine and Elk Falls, Kotagiri will make you go weak at the knees and leave you yearning for more. Doddabetta, the zenith of Nilgiris is just 22 km away from Kotagiri.




Avalanche and Red Hills - Situated very close to each other, Avalanche and Red Hills serves up as an alternate destination for ever crowded Ooty and are only 28 kms away from it.The place serves out a ranges of valleys and lakes on the platter to entice your adventure hunger. Be it trout fishing in the Avalanche Lake, BBQ near the Emerald Lake or a trek in the green and serene Red Hills, the place has no dearth of options for the people bitten by the travel bug.



So if a romantic holiday tucked away in the hills amidst cool-n-fresh air and verdant Nature is what you are looking for this summer, Nilgiris is your best bet.

Breaking The Myth Called Sharavathi Nature Trails


Donald Porter, V.P. of British Airways once said ‘Customers don’t expect you to be perfect. They do expect you to fix things when they go wrong.’  This post is not to introduce you to a new destination or an offbeat experience, but to acquaint you of how mismanagement of certain service providers can completely sour the mood of the customers and give them a bitter experience, while they were yearning for tranquility.

Recently, a team of HFL along with our valuable clients, went on an excursion to Sharavathi Valley. The valley located in the central Western Ghats of Shimoga district, Karnataka is a serene deciduous forests of the Western ghats and has many waterfalls, islands and jungle trails to offer. We at HFL have been endorsing the place for last 3 years and it is one of the most sought after location among our clientele. The service provider in this case is Sharavathi Nature Camp, an Outdoor Adventure and Environmental Education Organization that provides a camping and water activities program.


The Sharavathi Backwaters


The trip began on a bad note when there was nobody to brief/receive us upon arrival. Lack of any kind of manager/guide surprised us, as we had been very well received in the past by program coordinators. Pushing this out of our minds as a result of lack of resources, we had a sumptuous breakfast of idli-sambhar, and got ready for the trek. There was no room to put our luggage, and we depended on the kind-heartedness of the cooks who agreed to let us keep our luggage in kitchen storeroom. The cooks of the camp donned the hats of the trekking guide and the team had to follow them as no trekking guide was available this time.In our previous visit, a forest ranger was hired as a guide who gave a detailed information about the place, trails  and various flora and fauna. Thankfully the driver we had hired from Sagar decided to accompany us. A late start to the trek, courtesy complete mismanagement and miscommunication, ensured that we trekked in hot sun. Nevertheless, the scenic surroundings of the jungle calmed our annoyance and we trekked to the beautiful waterfalls. Enjoying our trek and the pure luxury of waterfall in the hot weather, we returned to the camp, boneless with exhaustion. Looking forward to a tent and shower wasn’t asking for too much, would ya say ?

Water for bathing

Murphy’s Law ensured we were deprived of both for the next 3-4 hours after our return. There was no tent in place, and no water in the common bathrooms/washrooms due to a malfunctioning motor. Our less-than-desired fluency in Kannada resulted in us trying to explain to the cooks for the next 2 hours that we wanted a tent and water to bathe. Going back and forth between the arguments about whether we should return to Sagar and rent a hotel, we finally decided to stay as the lure of a bonfire on the banks of backwaters in moonlight was too strong.  There is a God, and He decided to intervene then, when the cooks/helpers finally understood our plight and put up an available old tent for us. We shall not talk about the condition of the tent, because, you know, we’d like to forget it ASAP. Sufficient to say that it gave us somewhere to be, so that we could spend the night.


Collapsed Tent


The next day, which was supposed to be dedicated to water activities, saw us sharing 2 kayaks amongst 15 people. Eventually everyone chucked the kayaks, and enjoyed a cool swim in the backwaters. We came back to our tent by noon, and after devouring tasty lunch of Pulao and Raita, spent the afternoon getting annoyed and pissed with the loud music being played by a few forest officials who were staying as fellow-guests. Below are some other observations that we made during this ‘misadventure’.

  • Essential amenities like bathrooms and toilets were not properly maintained. They were dirty and no water was available.
  • The organisers have some strict rules regarding camping named ‘Nature Etiquette’. We tried to follow this to the T, but were disappointed that few forest officials, who were also guest with families, made it a point to break as many rules as possible. Liquor bottles were littered everywhere. The fellow campers were drinking and playing loud music, which is a strict no-no. It not only nullifies the  values of Camp, but also pose a threat to nearby habitat.
  • Before water activities, the group were not briefed about it. There was no raft building activity as promised in the itinerary that is provided on their website.

Nature Etiquettes

The surprising part was that when we tried to register our problem, it fell on deaf ears. Mr Sampath, the camp manager (who has been courteous in all our previous interactions) behaved in an unprofessional manner and hung up the phone when we tried to bring the issues to his notice.It was disheartening the way this trip turned out to be a disappointing affair for our esteemed customers and certainly not at all worth the price (Rs. 2000/person). We cannot overlook the fact that the local staff tried helping us to the best of their capacity. But the sad truth remains that a pristine location, bestowed so kindly by Mother Nature, was ruined by human mismanagement.

Team HFL suggests that the Sharavathi Nature Camp should appoint a full-time camp manager/guide to run the program effectively and with professional expertise. The need for basic amenities like clean washrooms is a must, atleast at the Muppane Camp. The quality of tents and kayaks is non-negotiable. Unfortunately, the current situation simply doesn’t meet the standards that we have set up for our offerings.


UPDATE (8th Oct 2014):"A few days back, we received an email from Mr. Sampath of Sharavathi Nature Trails (SNT). As per him the campsite is not maintained by them but the forest department and SNT cannot do anything incase the forest officials show up and make merry. Thus SNT doesn't take  the responsibility of the upkeep of the location of the campsite and their job is only to conduct the program."
