Camping in Kudremukh

Envision this - green land and misty valleys as far as the eye can see and you, tucked away somewhere in between the rolling hills. This is what camping in Kudremukh is like. If you’re someone who treks or climbs regularly, Kudremukh should be next on your list. A mere 106 kms away from Chikmagalur,  it is the 3rd highest peak in Karnataka after Mullayyangiri and Baba Budangiri - situated at an altitude of 6,207 ft. Kudremukh is a lesser known and explored mountain range at Chikmagalur that has now begun to draw attention. It falls under the purview of the Kudremukh National Park. The land is noted for its extensive range of protected flora and fauna and the nature camps provided in here.  

The landscapes at Kudremukh look like paintings and make for a lovely backdrop for all your pictures. If you’re looking for a detox from the everyday rush and the city smoke; and if you’re a frequent trekker looking for your next challenge - camping at kudremukh is the perfect getaway for you to plan! It is a fairly simple trek and can be attempted by beginners too. With the aroma of coffee all around you and the air so crisp and welcoming, you will set out on many nature-walks and repeatedly thank yourself for making it out here.  

Camping in Kudremukh is a restoring experience. With these rolling hills as your backdrop, everything is a little bit better. Kudremukh is one of the few locations with strictly maintained forests – you will hardly come across litter strewn everywhere. Camping here happens before or after any trek. Camping is not allowed at Kudremukh National Park but if you plan to pitch your tent elsewhere, be sure to ask a guide or a local if it is safe and allowed.
