Chikamagaluru Tour Packages

Overview

Chikamagaluru is celebrated as the cradle of coffee in India, where the 17th-century Sufi saint Baba Budan first planted coffee seeds in the surrounding hills. Nestled in the Baba Budan Giri range of the Western Ghats, the town is flanked by rolling plantations, freshwater streams, and verdant ridges. A stop at the local Coffee Museum offers a pleasant look into the history and heritage of coffee cultivation in the region.

For panoramic viewpoints and mountain air, Mullayanagiri is the crowning attraction—Karnataka's highest peak rising over 1,900 metres, offering sweeping vistas of cloud-covered valleys. Nearby, the scenic hill station of Kemmangundi, once a summer retreat for Mysore royalty, charms visitors with ornamental gardens, walking trails, and fresh mountain breezes.
