Mumbai to Shivamogga Shivamogga is a nice city with all the basic facilities..malls n all. You can have a good breakfast here.
Shivamogga to Jog falls Best is to stay near the falls to enjoy the natural beauty..in rains it’s heavenly. Board a bus to Taluguppa from Shivamogga bus stand. Jog falls is 10-15 min from Taluguppa. Can hire a cab for 2000 bucks.
Jog falls to Gokarna Next morning you can leave for Gokarna( it’s a strict 3 hours with half of that way being a Ghat section). Cab is the only easy way to Gokarna else you may have to go back to Shivamogga and then take bus to Kumta or maybe Honnavar…cab cost will be around 2500-3000 bucks. In the rains avoid Gokarna…everything’s a mess and almost all shacks are closed. Even the homestay a and hostels are limited. But the uncrowded streets of Gokarna with lush green trails and wooshing sea view is a treat to the eyes. A little struggle is worth it.
Gokarna to Murudeshwara The next morning leave for Murudeshwara. A smooth 1.5 hour ride(1500-2000 bucks). Visit the temple…gorge on local food..chill and board your bus back to Mumbai.
