Visit Chikkamangalur in One day BY Public Transport

One such destination has to be Chikmagalur which is a quaint hill station situated in Karnataka. It is known for the green hills as well as because of the naturally occurring caves. A road trip is the best way to visit Chikmagalur from Bangalore as it is just 5 hours away.

So, let us know a bit more about the public Transport to Chikmagalur.

Now Neelakurinji Bloomed in Chikkamangalur. The legendary Neelakurinji blooms after 12 years. Trek to Mullayanagiri to see the rare neelakurinji bloom after 12 years and cover the mountain in hue of purple and blue!

Strobilanthis Sessilis, known as Gurgi in Kannada (Neelakurinji, in Tamil and Malayalam), is endemic to the shola forests of Western ghats, India. It is termed as Plietesials, for having a rare pattern of blooming once in 12 years.

If you are planning to visit Chikkamagulur to see this rare phenomenon, be ready to be stuck in traffic. The roads are narrow and people are going in large numbers, I would advise people to rent bikes and go there to avoid congestion and please avoid going there in the weekends.

You can Reach At Mangalore by train and you can walk to the KSRTC ( Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation) Bus Station

KSRTC buses available from 5:30 am to Chikkamangalur and reach there within 4 hrs.

From outside the Chikmagalur bus stand, you can get an auto to Mullayanagiri, 800 rs – 1000 per auto, if there are more people, the per person amount will decrease.

On the way back, you can reach Chikmagalur, you have to reach before 5pm, otherwise it will take a long time to get a bus back to Mangalore..!

There is only one thing to be afraid of…! Whether the mist will change or not,
