About Bandaje Falls Trek: 

Bandaje Falls is one of the offbeat trekking spots in Karnataka, which lies in the Western Ghats. With beautiful scenery and peaceful surroundings, the trek takes a person through all those thick jungles and rolling hills, making it to the magnificent Bandaje Falls. The trek needs to cover about 15 km to Bandaje Falls. It is hardly a difficult track that makes people know that trekkers take it, but amateur trekkers who are eager to seek adventure are not so near it. There is a great experience of steeply pitched and rocky terrain for all who love nature and the adventurous things associated with it.
