Every
time when I pass through the Charmadi Ghat, I start dreaming about to spend at least a
short time in this beautiful piece of hill-land. Each and every curves of
Charmadi Ghat are has got its unique attraction and it is really amazing. These
curves make you stop your vehicle, invites you to enjoy the natural beauty. Hats
of NH department! Thanks for giving such wonderful road!! It is nestled in the Western Ghats and connecting both Dakshina Kannada with
Chikkamagaluru district.
It
would be a good idea to spend a day in Monsoon, just roaming back and forth in
this stretch. Every inch is so scenic across the Ghat road you may want to stop
at all places & get lost in nature!! You will get your own private
scenic spots in each visit!! Actually it’s a humid place on a sunny day you
will feel steaming with sweat.
Charmadi
Ghat being a hillock attracts trekkers and rock climbers, just need to take
care that the hills are meant only be with expert trekkers. In monsoon the
climate changes every few minutes, a sudden fog gets quickly vanished with
beautiful sun rays for few seconds that enhances the beauty of Mother Nature at
Western Ghats..!!
This
green land also attracts many birds towards its purest climate alone with other
flora and faunas. This road is quite narrow and one has to be careful while on drive.
At Annappa Gudi the scenery twists from pleasant to Exotic. As if
someone has spread a green carpet, the sides of road were lush and moist grassy
green. The road tarmac is smooth in dark pitch black the air so pure and chill.
We couldn't ask for more.

The
real beauty of Charmadi lies in its small waterfalls which come alive
throughout the year. Alekan, Kallarbi, Kallugundi, Nagaragundi, Kabbinasanka,
Dhaivika are some famous waterfalls in this Ghat region. From Annappa Gudi you
can find few milky waterfalls in between the thick forest. There is lot of
peaks which is heaven for the trekking activities. One thing is sure the
journey gets more and more exciting for those eyes deprived with scenic nature,
Charmadi Ghat Stretch offers solace.
