About this trip
Experience the wild, unspoiled beauty of Karnataka's coast on this thrilling 2-day weekend escape from Bangalore. The Gokarna Beach Trek is one of South India's most scenic coastal trails — winding along dramatic sea cliffs and hidden coves from Belakana Beach all the way through Paradise Beach, Half Moon Beach, and the iconic Om Beach, ending with a spectacular sunset at Om or Kudle Beach. Beyond the trek, the trip is packed with coastal charm — visit the historic Mirjan Fort draped in jungle vines, enjoy an optional visit to the ancient Mahabaleswara Temple, and unwind by the campfire at your beachside homestay. The second day takes you north to Honnavara for a scenic boat ride through the Sharavathi backwaters, a tranquil mangrove walk, a darshan at the majestic Murudeshwara Temple, and a possible stop at the thundering Jog Falls. A perfect blend of trekking, beaches, history, and coastal spirituality — all in one memorable weekend.
