Anyway, apart from the giant waterfalls, what else is there?
If you're looking for things to do in shimoga, you've got to check out the kodachadri trek shimoga is famous for.
It's the tenth highest peak in the state. It stands at about 1,343 meters.
The hike isn't a walk in the park. It takes about 4 to 5 hours one way. The trail goes right through dense jungle.
You'll probably pick up a few leeches if it rained recently. (Wear thick socks, seriously.)
But when you finally reach the Sarvajna Peetha at the top, the view of the Arabian Sea on a clear day is ridiculous.
Most people start the trek from Nagodi village.
If you don't want to walk the whole way, you can actually hire a local jeep. It costs around 2,500 rupees. It's a bumpy, bone-rattling 4x4 ride up the dirt track. It's an adventure in itself.
