Staying in Sakleshpur

Sakleshpur is a Western Ghats hill town used as a base for trekking trails to peaks such as Jenukal Gudda and Kumaraparvatha, and for waterfalls including Manjehalli and Magajahalli. Parts of the surrounding landscape fall within a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and coffee estate and spice garden visits are a common reason to come. The climate stays cool enough to make the town a weekend escape from Bengaluru and Mangalore.

The 4-star properties on this list sit outside the bus stand and main bazaar core, spread along the roads that lead away from town. Falling Water Resort, Lionton Resort by Z Vacations, Myst Resort, Mcube stays, Verdancia, Sterling Kadumane Hills Sakleshpur and Kodebailu Homestay lie between 3.9 and 10.9 kilometres from the centre; Mookanana Resort, Farmers Son CampingGround, Advaya Luxury Resort and Pepper Corn Retreat by Travent Mug sit further out, between 15.5 and 20.0 kilometres. That spread suits couples and families wanting resort facilities and quiet, and travellers on a short break who do not mind driving to the town's restaurants and railway station.

Plan your stay

Getting there and around

Sakleshpur is well connected by road and rail. Mangalore is about 120 kilometres west and Hassan about 40 kilometres east. Buses and trains run regularly from Bengaluru, about 220 kilometres away, and from Mangalore. The town has a railway station on the Mangalore–Hassan line, with scenic views en route. Once in Sakleshpur, local buses and auto-rickshaws cover short trips, but hiring a taxi or using your own vehicle is more convenient for reaching Manjarabad Fort, the waterfalls and resorts spread along the highways.

When to go

October to March is the best window, when the weather is pleasant and rainfall is minimal. The monsoon months from June to September bring heavy rain that can disrupt travel but make the landscape lush and the waterfalls spectacular. Summers from March to May are warm but still cooler than the plains, making Sakleshpur a viable escape from the heat.
