Chikmagalur
Chikmagalur is where Karnataka's coffee culture began, and it shows in the rolling estate-covered hills, cool climate and slow mornings built around a fresh cup at altitude. Mullayanagiri, the state's highest peak, and waterfalls like Hebbe reward those who venture off the plantation roads, while Baba Budangiri adds a layer of shared religious history. Coffee-estate homestays are the signature stay, giving an intimate, working-farm feel that resorts elsewhere can't match — ideal for couples and small groups after a green, laid-back escape.
ClimateCoffee-growing hill station — cool climate, heavy monsoon rain.
