Plan The Unplanned presents Kumar Parvatha !!

Kumara Parvatha, also popularly known as Pushpagiri (5624 feet above sea level), is the second highest mountain belonging to the Western Ghats mountain ranges situated in the Kodagu district of Karnataka, after Tadiandamol. If compared to the other treks in this region, Kumara Parvatha is a little tougher, but nonetheless, beautiful. The trekking trail runs through the Pushpagiri Wildlife Sanctuary, and you'll be getting up close and personal with nature during this journey.

While a weekend getaway to Coorg might sound something too cliched, you'll be surprised to know that the region has some amazing trek trails, providing numerous opportunities to travel enthusiasts for exploring the entire region surrounded by the Western Ghats. Plan The Unplanned has already taken you up there till Tadiyandamol, Kopatty, Nishani Motte and other places, but now it's time to head towards another new destination, Kumara Parvatha.

You'll be exposed to the majestic mountains, the valleys painted with the most amazing shades of green, little brooks and some surprises that nature has to offer en route.

The talks were brilliant but the organizing was poor. The program started at 6 instead of 5 and took the organizers 30 minutes to tell that its due to projector issue. Raghuls videos not playing properly was a let down. Over all it was good because of the content spoken about - by Aravind Suresh for Unplanned Stories - Episode 11 - Travel Tales organized by Plan The Unplanned .

The Gokarna trek had been an amazing experience with PlanTheUnplanned team. The tour operators - Rahul, Osheen & Pujitha made sure that everyone is involved and making the most out of this 3 day trip. They had been the pillars for the fellow mates. And kept us highly motivated throughout. The small interactive sessions, the bonfire, the mafia game, the dumb charades, the beach trek and definitely the "rock of peace" ( Nonetheless, I got to know the diverse opinion of people on peace) are the best of my memories. Looking forward to more such trips with this team. Thank you Osheen, Pujitha & Rahul for leading us all so well and all the fellow trekkers who made this journey full of life. - by Shambhavi Chauhan for Gokarna Beach Trek & Camping | Plan the Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Scuba Diving at Netrani Island - This was my second trip with PTU and trust me nothing was unplanned! Everything was planned and taken care of with the minutest detail which majorly includes travel, stay, food and safety. The trip leads of PTU are always pleasure to be with (this time Seema and Prakruthi :)). The cherry on the cake was definitely scuba diving! I can't thank PTU enough for making me experience this amazing and thrilling experience. I am for sure looking forward to many more fun-filled adventurous trips with PTU. You guys are doing an amazing job, keep going, all the best! - by Deepali S for Scuba Diving at Netrani Island & Banavasi Tour organized by Plan The Unplanned .

This weekend beach trek organised by PTU had so much to offer. The incredible views of the glittering blue seas and endless soft sand and the night sky dominated by millions of twinkling stars made this trek an unforgettable experience. PTU made excellent arrangements and there isn't a single bad memory I carry from this trek. The trek leads were extremely kind and went out of their way to make the experience as memorable as possible. I would recommend this trek to everyone regardless of age. The terrain itself wasn't too hard to manoeuvre. The beaches were quite clean and there were many shacks which served incredible food along the way. All in all, this was one of the happiest and most calming experiences I've had and I am immensely glad I chose to opt for this trek. Thank you PTU! - by Hima Trisha M for Gokarna Beach Trek & Camping | Plan the Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

An Amazing experience !It was my first trip as solo and was just perfect , obviously be because of plan the uplanned. Everything about them from people , places , trek , food , activities and whole plan was good and happening. When things look so easy from front then there is a lot of backend work involved and is being driven by a strong Leader. Cheers and respect for all trek leads - Soumya , Hitesh and Aditya. You guys have incredible energy and patience.Kudos for the two well spent days with this group :) - Gokarna Trip 29th- 31st March - by Nidhi for Gokarna Beach Trek & Camping | Plan the Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

My First Solo Trekking Trip with Plan The Unplanned - Sometimes even though you are surrounded by known persons you feel lonely and sometimes travelling with unknown persons makes you feel complete.So when I was going through this pain of loneliness , i decided to overcome my fear of travelling alone and discover myself. Through an ad which was coming on instagram , I came across PTU (Plan The Unplanned) that on 8th March , They were going to organize trek just for women . I was confused as I dont have any idea about this Travel Planner and plus i was travelling alone for the first time. So i contacted them, Jatin with whom I was talking from Day 1 is such a helpful and humble person that i got convinced to go wirh them finally. He not only motivated me but also answered my all queries even at midnight. Thank u so much Jatin for all your help.I have travelled several times with my family members and friends and with different travel organizers but the way these people take care of your each minor details is so impressive.Our Trek leaders Amit and Rakshita , both were supportive, caring, humble and knowledgable.Amit had lot of patience and he is a very sensitive , caring and matured person. We could make it out from the fact that he even saved other people From drowning who were even not in our trek. And those who were drowning , their leader were so careless and irresponsible that he just cared for showcase but not lives of his people. So here you can make out the difference in leadership.Rakshita is a sweet and helpful girl.She will take care of each need of yours and will not let you feel lonely at any point of time.PTU have organized each and everything in an organized manner like sending details of everybody who is travelling with you , plus proper itinerary . They also make sure to introduced each traveller with each other so that everybody could mingle up. They will not let you be alone and will make sure you enjoy each and every moment. - by Ankita Das for All Women Gokarna Beach Trek and Camping organized by Plan The Unplanned .

I came across Plan The Unplanned on Instagram and it really was a good idea to follow them. And I was like let's give a shot at trekking for which I chose the Madhugiri Fort trek on 10th Feb'19. The trek was way above my expectations. Be it the way everything was organized, the trek leaders or the fellow trekmates. Everything was on point.The trek leaders ensured that everyone was comfortable going up/down the hill which actually was a very challenging one. Thanks Yashwanth, Ajay and Rakshitha for making the trek a memorable one. Will book my next trip soon.Bangalore people should definitely try going on a trip with Plan The Unplanned without having any second thoughts. - by Satarupa for Kunti Betta Trek organized by Plan The Unplanned .

This was my 2nd time with PTU after KP trek. Very happy to say that the experience keeps on getting better ! Don't know what these folks eat before organizing the trips/treks :) Our leads were Akanksha, Pujitha and Abhishek and each one of them was special in a way. The biker and wanderlust girl, Akanksha, the kidnapper Pujitha and the smooth talker Abhishek. They always ensured that the josh was high and no one was left out. And the fellow travelers are no more just an acquaintance. Definitely will remember them for a long time! And last but not the least was the surprise activity on Day 2 morning. A very different and healing experience. If you want to know what it was then don't wait, just book with them! I am definitely going with them 3rd, 4th ... nth time :) - by Vishal Sinha for Explore Hampi Heritage Trek, Bouldering and Camping organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Skandagiri night trek was my first solo trip which turned out to be the best one and ended up making a lot of friends. It wasn't just the trek, the journey was fun too. Thanks to the trek leads and their ice breaker sessions. I'd love to join them on their future treks. - by Macha Pujitha for Night Trek To Skandagiri organized by Plan The Unplanned .

I recently finished my first trek with PTU and I must say that I had an amazing experience. The trip was flawlessly arranged with a great plan right from the start of the trip until the end.

Kodachadri, November 10 & 11, 2018. It was only one week since I had done Gokarna trek with Plan the Unplanned and I could not stop myself from booking another one.Kodachadri is one of the top 5 treks in Karnataka and I'm very proud of myself that I completed it successfully! Again, all thanks to the whole team of PTU. Starting from the bus, I was lucky enough to make friends and also the game sessions by the amazing trek leads helped a lot. Seema, Prakruti and Manisha, the trek leads, were very good and made us enjoy the most. About the trail, first, the Hidlumane falls was a total bliss but freezing cold water. And later the whole trail was tough and inclined giving us some really good adrenaline rush. It took us around 6 hours to trek to the peak along with some amazing views on the sides.And on the way back to the homestay, I must say, one should definitely experience the jeep ride because I feel it's the most adventurous ride anyone can go on!I felt a little bad as the trip was going to end and we all had to get back to our old routines. But, I cannot get over these weekend trips very soon, still hungover. TRAVELLING HAS BECOME A WAY OF LIFE, Thank you PTU. - by Nagashri U Rao for Kodachadri Trek with Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

October 27 & 28, 2018. Marking these days as ONE AMAZING TIME OF LIFE ?? A huge thanks to the whole team of Plan the Unplanned to have organized this trek. This was my solo trip and I only got courage because it was all women trek. I remember taking my luggage on the first day, boarding the bus with so much anxiety and choosing to sit at the last so that no one could easily notice. On the contrary, I ended up being recognized by everyone by the third day. All thanks to the trek leads, they make you mingle with everyone possible and make it so happening that I remember each moment spent. I must take these names: Sushma, Daman, and Mounika who were the leads giving us one beautiful journey to look back on. There were women from age 21 to around 50 and the leads were equally supportive of each one of them, making sure we all had the best we could.I am not going to address them as leads anymore because they were so good even on a personal level, found some new really good friends??I am a person who loves to jump around places where it is not easy and have some adrenaline feel for a moment. Huge thanks to Sush and Daman for letting me do it and sometimes doing it along with them. I am looking forward to every other trek with the same leads.ABSOLUTE BLISS. First trip but definitely not the last. Please do not keep an upper age limit because I want to continue to do this for as many years as possible.TO TRAVEL IS TO LIVE!!!!! - by Nagashri U Rao for Gokarna Beach Trek & Camping | Plan the Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

A tough trek. But worth it. Never have I been let down as much as I was, when with every last ounce of energy in body, I dragged myself from kallu mantapam to the peak,when one guy chilling on a rock there calmly pointed out to the actual peak 2kms from there. If it were not for the trek leads Abhishek and ruchi, this trek would just have been pictures at the peak, sore legs and swollen ankles. But, the energy they brought to the group made me enjoy this trek more than I had ever expected. Will definitely come back for round two - by Siddartha Samanth Chinne for Kumara Parvatha Trek | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

We went for this trek on 19th-21st Oct 2018. We were amazed to see the rich biodiversity at Kotagiri. It's a very good place for birding enthusiasts. There is a lot of wildlife in these Nilgiri Hills. Weather was excellent and we did not face much rains during the trek. We did not take the overnite bus ride provided by the organisers. We went on our own one day earlier and stayed at a homestay and joined the group at the camp on Saturday morning and stayed there for the night at camp and left on Sunday morning. +ves - The group was very energetic and fun. The trek leads were keen to make us explore as much as we can in the limited time we had. They were also very enthusiastic about making the whole trip fun for people by trying to organise fun activities in the evening.-ves - My overall review is negative so obviously there are more -ves than +ves. Will make it objective for future trekkers to keep these in mind as they chose this place for a trekking/camping experience1. The camps are set up in a tea estate down the valley. There is one big campsite started by a tea estate owner and then there are a couple small ones which mushroomed around it. We were in one of the smaller campsite. This was the first major concern. the site was barely enough to pitch 3-4 tents and have max 10-12 people. There are 2 restrooms (which were filthy by the way). The organisers booked 27 people for this trek (+3 trek leads) and there was another group of 10 at the same campsite. So in all we were 40-45 people at a such a small place and there were 12-14 tents pitched next to each other. There was hardly any place to even walk or sit outside comfortably. This was a major dampener in our camping experience.2. Food - the food and camping is provided by the people who own the camping site. Plan the unplanned is just taking bookings and taking people to this campsite and making a margin out of this. The food was very average. I have been to multiple treks and lot of them at very high altitudes. The food is far far better than what was offered here. 3. Lack of experience of trek leaders - The trek leaders had very little or no experience in managing a trekking group. They were not able to assess risks, they had no first aid kits, they had no mode of communication to check the progress, whereabouts and safety of such a large group, and they were not able to guide the group to move at a pace which was required to cover the treks in time. After reaching sites, people were just left on their own to spend as much time as they want. This led to the group missing going to dolphin peak as it got dark. 4. Respect for nature/jungles - Lot of trekkers were first timers and they did not have much awareness on conduct in forests and treks. Some basic rules are avoiding being too loud, making lot of noise, playing loud music etc. What was surprising was trek leads also lacking these basic principles. The whole campsite was very loud specially in the evening and the dance, music and party continued till 11 PM disturbing the wildlife/birds in that area. This was led and initiated by trek leads themselves. Moreover, during the trek, trek leads were playing music on their mobiles which set the example for other youngsters also and they thought thats an ok thing to do. This was really really disappointing. Having fun is important but at the same time, in these zones, we have to respect the forests and the wildlife there and be sensitive. Fellow trekkers - chose this trek if you are a nature lover, contact local campsites on your own and do it the proper way. Do not expect the organisers to add any more value than arranging a shared transportation for you (and making a huge margin on that).I dont have any trust in capabilities of these organisers especially because they don't seem to be nature lovers and have poor planning and execution skills. - by Yogendra for Kotagiri Trek - Camp Amidst The Nilgiri Hills organized by Plan The Unplanned .
