Day-wise plan
Meals and stay listed on every day · pace built for a group.
1Day 1 · Base city to Wayanad, Banasura Sagar and Pookode Lake.
- Morning arrival at the base city, Bangalore or Mysore.
- Freshen up at the station or a breakfast stop nearby.
- Drive towards Wayanad, about 4 hours from Mysore, on the scenic Bandipur forest route.
- Banasura Sagar Dam, set among the Banasura hills in the Western Ghats.
- Water activities such as speed boating, kayaking and coracle rides, weather permitting.
- Lunch near the dam. Food options in this area are limited.
- Pookode Lake and the Lakkidi viewpoint for the evening.
- Late check-in at the stay, dinner and rest.
2Day 2 · Wayanad: waterfalls, the longest zipline and 900 Kandi.
- A local breakfast to start the day.
- Soochipara or Kanthampara waterfalls first, because the Forest Department allows only 1,200 visitors a day and tickets are bought in a queue on arrival.
- On to the adventure zone: India’s longest zipline, the giant swing, sky cycle and ATV rides, set around a tea plantation walk. All optional and subject to tickets and weather.
- Lunch at a local restaurant. Food options in this region are limited.
- After lunch, 900 Kandi for the off-road jeep ride and the glass bridge over the Wayanad ranges.
- Back at the stay by late evening. No loud music after 10:00 PM as this is a forest area, so the evening is storytelling and indoor games.
- A hot vegetarian dinner, and rest.
3Day 3 · Wayanad to Mysore, sightseeing and goodbyes.
- Early checkout from the stay.
- Drive back to Mysore.
- Visit Mysore Palace and the Chamundi Hills temple.
- Board the return train to Hyderabad.
- Last-day sightseeing depends on train timings. If there is time, we may add Edakkal Caves or the En Ooru tribal heritage village in Wayanad instead.
