When the days start getting heavier and harder, you just need an escape.
What if we tell you that there is an escape waiting for you, just 65 kms or so from your office desk?
Uttari Betta has to be one of the best kept secrets of Karnataka - also known as Hutridurga, this is an adorable little hamlet, which is where you get to start this amazing trek. And it doesn’t matter if you are a newcomer to the world of trekking or are a solo female trekker, at Plan The Unplanned, we are here for you. When you choose to embark on the Uttari Betta sunrise trek, you are choosing to take that “me” time that you truly deserve and need - a quick escape from the daily grind and a chance to reconnect with yourself.
Imagine starting in the twilight hours and watching the sun pour over the horizon like liquid gold. Bid a temporary adieu to everything else - and simply reconnect with yourself, while nature showcases its magic all around you.
### Trek highlights
Whether you are a starter or a seasoned trekker who just wants a quick escape, we at Plan the Unplanned can assure you that this trek is perfect for you. With our trek leaders, the Uttari Betta trek difficulty level might not even be a concern (but worry not, as this is a relatively easy trek).
When the fumes of the city are starting to leave you breathless, maybe it’s time to change gears for just a bit. Maybe, it’s time to climb rugged trails that wind through lush green foliage, gaze in wonder at stoic fort walls and mysterious caves that tell tales of the days past and take the time to reconnect with yourself. With each step, you go deeper into a landscape where time itself appears to have been suspended and meet some like-minded people too!
