    HI born2vin:

    We did a day visit to Kemmanagundi from Shimoga. However, you could easily spend a weekend with trekking in Bababudanagiri hills, visiting the local falls (can't remember the name), etc. However, I have heard of people camping at homestays at Chikmaglur and make a trip to K'gundi. It is a lovely place. There is an inspector's bungalow where you could stay but I have no further details that I could give you.

    I do hope this helps you in some way.

    Sindhu

    Hi Tamilarasi:

    While it is possible to cover Jog falls, I think it will become too hectic especially if you are travelling with kids. Also, I'm not sure if the roads are good enough after the rains, so the drive might become a stretch.

    Assuming you are travelling from Bangalore, it is about 379 kms. to Jog falls and the normal route is bangalore-shimoga-sagara - jog falls.
