If you’re planning to go on the Bandaje Falls Trek peak, Ballalarayana Durga Fort, make sure to complete your Ballalarayana trek booking well in advance to secure your spot. Forts have always had a certain charm in themselves, and if they are made on certain heights, hidden from plain sight with fog, clouds, and mist, the charm just doubles. Such an amazing fort in the Dakshina Kannada district of Karnataka is the Ballalarayana Durga Fort, which lies on the top of a hill and can only be reached by trekking through the dense vegetation that grows on the slopes. Book ballalarayana trek with us.

And this trek and camp experience in the Western Ghats fulfills that very purpose, to take you to a beautiful fort, high up in the hills and shrouded by a cover of thick clouds. And the best thing about this place is that there is no network connectivity, making this the perfect experience of camping, ballalarayana trekking packages and offbeat.

Starting from the guesthouse that will also act as your base camp for the activity, you will start the trek to the top at about 9 in the morning, and reach the peak in about 4 hours. Spend some time at the top taking in views of the famous Charmadi Ghat Hill and the South Kendra view, get the most perfect pictures here and return back to the base camp. To keep your strength and spirits high throughout the activity, you will be enjoying delicious local cooked meals. Bandaje trek booking online is a convenient way to reserve your spot for the trek, especially during peak season when there is a high demand for the activity. To experience the breathtaking beauty of the Bandaje Falls, don’t forget to complete your Bandaje Falls trek Package booking in advance, as it is required to obtain the necessary permissions for the trek. You can compare different Ballalarayana trek packages online to find the one that suits your budget and preferences.
