JogFalls is the most spectacular waterfall in the Western Ghats. With a plunge of 830 feet, it is the second-highest waterfall in India.
Murdeshwar is famous for being the world’s second-tallest Shiva statue. The town lies on the coast of the Arabian Sea and the temple is visible from a long distance.
Yana is known for the two unusual karst rock formations – Bhairaveshwara & Mohini Shikhara. The place and surrounding hillocks are known for the rainforests.
Want to add some spice to the itinerary? We will travel through the Ghats to reach this place and stay in a homestay surrounded by greenery and a garden of supari and cashew plantations at the backside.
