Hi,

What do you usually do on your weekends in Karnataka?

Are there any places to visit, any activities, any events or festivals regularly organized you would like to recommend?

What are your top tips for the weekend in Karnataka?

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience,

Christine

This post is really old. But I'm new here so...

Well, if you're around the Mangalore region you have a lot to do, you've got multiple nature reserves such as Kudremukh, Agumbe and Someshwara. A 3 hour trip from Manipal can lead you to Shivmogga, home of the Jog falls. You've got multiple beaches in the region, the most famous of them being Kaup (pronounced Kapu) & Malpe. Along with them, there is Penambur, Hoode, Padubidri, Surathkal, Marawanthe and more. A short distance from Hoode, there's a delta. Murdeshwar is a famous temple/pilgrimage town at a distance of 3 hours from Udupi.

Northeast of Karnataka, there is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Hampi, a must visit.

Similarily, there are a lot of things to do in Karnataka, if you need any help, there's always google or drop me a message.
