THE EXPERIENCE
About this trip
Netravati Peak Monsoon Trek - A Scenic Escape into the Western Ghats
The Netravati Peak Monsoon Trek takes you into the green landscapes of the Western Ghats, where forest trails, open grasslands and rolling hills come together to create a rewarding trekking experience. The route offers scenic views throughout the journey, making it a memorable weekend escape from Bengaluru.
Located in the Chikkamagaluru region, Netravati Peak is a lesser-known mountain that has become increasingly popular with trekkers. During the monsoon, the surrounding landscape takes on a fresh green character, adding to the appeal of the trail and the journey towards the peak.
With its mix of natural surroundings and changing terrain, the trek offers a moderate challenge for those looking to spend a weekend away from the city. The 14 km trail combines adventure with the peaceful atmosphere of the Western Ghats.

The Netravati Peak Monsoon Trek from Bangalore was an incredible weekend experience. The lush green landscapes, misty surroundings and changing trail made the journey really enjoyable. Reaching the peak was definitely the highlight, and the CompareMyTrip team coordinated everything smoothly
We had a great time on the Netravati Trek with friends. The forest sections, open grasslands and mist-covered hills made the trek feel completely different from a regular weekend outing. The trip was well coordinated by CompareMyTrip, and the trek leader was supportive throughout
“Perfect Monsoon Adventure”
Netravati was an amazing choice for a monsoon trek. The trail was adventurous, and the greenery and clouds along the route made the experience memorable. Some sections were challenging, but reaching the summit made the effort worthwhile. The CompareMyTrip team kept the group together and managed the trek well
The Netravati Peak Trek was a memorable escape into the Western Ghats. The combination of forest trails, green grasslands and beautiful mountain views made the journey special.
