Kodachadri Payana.............

All of us got a chance to plan for a 2 days trip. Yash called me and said, " we have planed to go kodachadri". I had never thought of that place, He told it will be 2 days trip n will be a treck for 5 hours (which in the end i realised was 9 to 12 km treck in the forest).
So the plan was to leave from Bangalore on 30th night reach mangalore by 31st morning and head towards our destination. Treck for 5 to 6 hours and head back to bangalore on 1st night.Our team consisted of 13 members (Ravi, Guru, Raghu, Varsha, Priya, Pradeep,Shashi,Bharthi,Abhilasha, samta,yusi,Ambuja and yash). And we are supposed to travel in tempo travellers (TT).
All we met in vijay nagar, there we had a introduction session with kpit fiends .......:)

Started our journy by celebrating varsha's b'day ( in TT), cutting cake, eating, commenting.. and laughing for ravi's conversations .. :) .














After 45 mins of journy, near nice road planned to go for desiel, actually there was a strike in petrol bunk for increasing the fuel price, so stoped our vehicle for one hour there. But allondu naDididdu funny incident, ellargu desiel chinte aadre guru n pradeep ge snap chinte :).
Public were fighting for the deisel n petrol, along with them guru was shouting :) n dhyrya dinda photo bere click maadta iddru. It was really too good....
Edellar naDuve yash hudugiyarinda byskoLLudu ... it was too funny :).
Finally we got the deisel and continued our journy towards mangalore.
In that whole night everyone ( except me as i was sleeping :)) enjoyed a lot !!!!! like .. ...dancing by playing jinke mareena......... song and etc .














In the morning i heard everyone were commenting me at night like
" Eshtu varsh dinda evLu nidde maadilla antha :)".

We reached mangalore around 7' O clk in the morning, there went to some hotel where all of us took bath and had our breakfast. We left mangalore around 9.30.
Then started journy towards "kollur" , in the TT again playing music and dancing.
Repeatedly played the same song thats jinke mareena.... :)
















Amele abhi n raghu dance maaduvaaga guru 100/- turiddu sakkatagittu........ and
Yusi's baabujeeeee dance was ultimate............... :)

Around 11.30 we reached kollur n took darshan of mukambika there, after that continued journy towards eDDlumane. On the way we got one small hotel and had our lunch there.
In the hotel one more funny incident: ........took one plate meals n had 6 people. Guru taste maadi antha heLidde tada ellroo kai haaki tindidde tindiddu........ :)

From there we continued our journy towards "eDDlumane" through "nittor"

Starting swalpa maLe ittu....














Around 2.30 we arrived at our start destination of our treck called "Eddlumane".





























After 1km from there.........















We met 'Vijay'(very cool guy) who was the treck organiser. From there started our real trecking in forest.
















After some photoshoots, we continued our trecking, the route to eddlumane falls is pretty tough.

















Crossing those falls with the wild insects specially the everloving "leeches"..................:) crawling up our pants.. amele cheerodu, jaarodu ... biLodu (Cool).... it was really wonderful and
adventurous...














After sometime we reached the main Eddlumane falls.......















Hurray we did it !!!!!!!!!!!


We didnt take much time to get into water. All jumped into water and enjoyed a lot in that heaven.
After having fun time in the falls we continued our trecking towards "Kodachadri".

From there trecking becomes too hard and risky, the route was very steepy we were moving with the help of tree trunks and stones.
Then started moving towards guest house which in kodachadri. The route passes through thick forest area. It had all the difficulties that a typical trecking route will have... snakes ..colorful millipedes..











































By the time we left Eddlumane falls it was almost 7pm.. as there was no electricity on that route.. unfartunately we had nt got the torche also..
















We moved with the help of our mobile battery and light insects in that forest... and finally reached the guest house around 8.30.

Though the 6 hours of treck was tiering.. we had loads of fun tooooooo......:)

Then we all got freshed up .. had dinner .. ellardu legs n hands haad heLta iddvu................. :)
So oota maadidde tada slept off..

We woke up early in the morning (around 5.30)... The cause to open open my eyes is guru and ravi's dialogue.. "Naanu poliiiiiiicce antha irodu yaakilli" ..........:)
Aa tampaad nasukinalli again we went 2km of treck to see the "sunrise", after that came back to guest house .. had a breakfast and left from there around 8.30 by jeep.
Journy in that forest by that jeep was really too good..

On that time our forest hero "Vijay" took us to one spot where gaaLipata shooting has happened..

















It was awsome......

Sammu, guru, pradee, yash and sashi were missed this spot..:( as they were in another jeep..
After that came down to nittur and took our TT , gone to kollur again. Went to some hotel and all of us took rest for some time.. recharged ourselves.. had lunch..
After that our plan was to go "sigandhoor" and "Sharavathi kanive" and back to Bangalore around 11pm at night..
So around 2 o' clk started from kollur to "Sigandhoor".. (Choudeshwari temple)
Then from there we went to a very beautiful place ...........

"Sharavathi kanive"...


























We had to cross that sharavathi kanive by boat to get the road...So we get our TT along with and crossed the kanive...




















And reached sagar around 6.00.. had a cup of tea and started our journy back towards bangalore..
Estella saku annostaralli again brake fail ( 3km from sagar).......(HA ha ha ha)... TT punture ... and then... street play... I am sorry road play....

















Ellargu onthara tension aagta ittu adaralli ravi and guru serkondu tamma office nalli naDdiro anaul day function mimicri maadta nammellara tension doora maadidru..















And pradeep bandu "bul bul andaaga.. ella hudigiru avanna hodaskondu hogidd mument anthu sakatta agittu.. :)
Then somehow we got a mechanic and problem got solved by 10.30... had dinner in some daba.. and started our jouny back towards bangalore..

All in all it was wonderful trip.... total of 12km treck is pretty hard provided we hardly do physical activities in our day to day life..
We were happy we did it..

For me this trip fullfilled my dream .. And interestingly this is my first blog. Hope to continue with blogging in future, hope you guyz liked reading this article... Please let me know if any feedbacks (+ve/-ve).... will try to improve upon it........ See you soon.. ............. till then take care... :)
