Places to visit in waynad

Waynad is beautiful hill station in Kerala. It is almost 270 KMs from Bangalore. You can travel to waynad via bus, cab or your own vehicle. The route to Waynad touches Mysuru and if you want you visit Nanjanguda lord shiva temple as well. The route becomes very lovely after mysuru, its full of greenery and there will not be many shops/buildings. If you are traveling by own vehicle then use google map, it may take you into some small villages of Kerala. You will also cross the Bandipur and Mudumal forest on way so be prepared to start early as the forest closes by 9PM. Also there will be some entry charge (we were charged 500 rs for tamilnadu id). 
Once you cross the forest you will start noticing the hills and you are in kerala. 
While travelling through the forest you may notice elephants if you lucky but I am sure you see lots of deers, peacock etc. Tigers normally don't come towards road. 

You can subscribe to my channel to see such interesting videos. 


From mysuru, waynad will be around 5 hours journey by own vehicle. I would suggest to go there by CAB or Own vehicle as you might notice many small beautiful places which you would love to see.

 The ORR view point ( Koheda Gutta)  If you are getting bored over weekend and you want to explore nature without going too far then I would suggest visiting ORR view point.  It is almost 60kms from gachibowli and is a very small place with no crowd. Here you can climb hill visit devi mata temple and do photography.  https://g.co/kgs/q4zrvc You can follow the link to explore more about this place.  Good thing is most of the time you will be driving on ORR which itself is a pleasure as you see lots of greenery around it.  Since the place is very small so I would suggest to carry your food, make sure you are not spoiling the place with garbage so carry a garbage bin also to collect used plates or plastics.  I will keep updating about other different places so just join my blog to get regular updates.  Follow my youtube channel to to know more about local places.
