Details

Perhaps you've always wanted to spend a night somewhere in the middle of nowhere and enjoy the eerie silence, well now is the time to live it up, with Plan The Unplanned at Maala Homestay.

The Western Ghats fascinate one and all, with its impenetrable forests, stunning bio-diversity, and awesome waterfalls. On the foothills of this natures wonder, ensconced in the Kudremukh range of the hills is a quaint, idyllic village called Maala, just 16 km from Karkala Town in Udupi District, and yet miles and miles away from any trace of urban life. Amidst its ever-green environs and intense silence, the rural agricultural life is an incomprehensible experience.

Maala Homestay is a 200-year-old house restored artistically. Built using locally available materials with cosy rooms and spacious living rooms, it allows you to experience the nature in its fullest glory. With rustling trees, chirping birds, gushing streams and perpetual breeze carrying the fragrance of wildflowers, you cannot be closer than this to nature. And, there is more. Maala Homestay is a home as much as it is a museum an impressive range of modern, classical, and folk arts and artefacts adorn its walls and shelves. Maala Homestay offers you an opportunity to enjoy the nature and the world of art at the same time.

Destination Info

Kudremukh

A quaint hill station near Chikmagalur, Kudremukh is one of the most scenic hills and one of the highest ranges in Karnataka, and is also among the top destinations for trekking near Bangalore between 300 - 400 Kms along. In fact, it is the third highest after Mulaiyangiri and Baba Budangiri. With a name that literally translates to ‘Horse Face’, the shape of the hill, true to it’s name, looks like the face of a horse. Image Credits: Flickr - Dhruvaraj A trek along Kudremukh is ...

Had been to waynad with PTU n this was my first trip with them and previously I had been to lot of places with lot of other organizers but I can say PTU is best among all. Talking about food n accommodation it's way better than the other organizers they do care so much about our comfort.I should definitely mention Rahul, Jolly and Rakshitha for organizing it very well and making things easy for us. You guys will definitely reach heights for ur dedication. Thanks PTU for creating a wonderful platform.P. S Thanks so much guys for making this trip a memorable one(Rajesh, Dr. Nethra, Shinchan,'', Sankit, Neha, Akshith, Aditya, Rahul, Jolly and Rakshitha) You guys are amazing!! Love you 3000 - by Prasanth Rohit for Wayanad - Night Trek and Camping | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

This was my first trekand solo travel experience. Although I was a bit skeptical about how it will turn out but my experience was way beyond my expectations. The trek and the place was nevertheless beautiful, but the kind and friendly trek leads made it very easy to break the ice among everyone. Everyone felt like really good friends by the end of it. Overall great experience. Will surely do some other trip again. - by Avantika Chhabra for Kodachadri Trek with Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

This was third trek with PTU.. Organised so well that you cannot resist to plan again. Thank you Prakriti and Shashi for being wonderful trek leads.. So patients and organised.. I recommend everyone to choose Plan the Unplanned without any single thought. - by Bibi for Tadiandamol Coorg Trek organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Mon, 02 Sep

The trip was an amazing experience for a weekend getaway. We got out of the hustle bustle of the city into a peaceful homestay with a beautiful view. All the co-trekkers bonded really well and our trek leads (Shashi and Prakrithi) made everyone feel included. The first day was trek to Tadiandamol peak and despite all the hurdles, the view from the top was worth all the effort. The second day included white water rafting and visit to Namdroling monastery. Both of them had their own experiences and one must experience both. Overall, it was a great first experience with PTU and it was a combination of the serenity of the place and the amazing people and trek leads we got to hang out with. Thank you PTU for making this trip memorable. Would love to travel with you again :) - by Dhruv for Tadiandamol Coorg Trek organized by Plan The Unplanned .

I booked a trip to Hampi with these guys. Loved the campsite, food, arrangement and planning. As luck would have it, the group was stuck in unforeseen floods. Not only did they make sure we had resources and were all safe, but they also kept the spirits up. They make an enthusiastic and extremely accommodating group of people. I had the most eventful trip of my life so far. It would not have been possible without Jatin, Arpita and Adith, and the oodles experience they carry with them. I will definitely recommend planning your next trip with these guys! Especially solo travellers, it will never feel like you are alone and take an introvert's word for that. - by Avani for Explore Hampi Heritage Trek, Bouldering and Camping organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Kudremukh Trek (3rd Aug - 5th Aug)I have been planning for the Kudremukh Trek for a long time. But was very hesitant to do it on my own. There is a limited (50 person) entry for the trek to the Kudremukh and I was not sure about the entry, gates and entry free. Online portals dont have specifics of the details, and the information didnt seem updated. After doing some research, I came across Plan the Unplanned (PTU), and they seemed to be the most reliable. I heard great review from friends and colleagues, so I went ahead and booked Kudremukh Trek for the weekend of 3rd - 5th August. It was a wonderful trip, to say the least. The planning and execution were absolutely on point, and Plan the Unplanned (PTU) exceeded my expectations. Below are some highlights: Very good transportation facility (AC Bus) Stay was arranged at Bella Homestay. Good clean dorm room. Separate rooms for boys and girls. We were 11 guys staying in room. But it was still decently comfortable. Great food at the homestay. Aunty makes some amazing Idllis and Tomato rice :D Permits were taken care before reaching the entry point of the trek, avoiding last minute hassles. (Such a relief) It was relatively easy for experienced hikers but moderate for newbies. But definitely one of the most scenic treks with lots of greenery and gushing water streams on the way. And windows XP theme hills ;) The fellow trekkers were good. Very motivated and great sport. Last but not the least the Trek Leader (Adith, Megha, Deepika, Yash) were awesome. They are very engaging and responsible. Kudremukh trekkers were mostly in contact with Adith & Megha. And they did an awesome job of coordination and I highly recommend them. Will plan my next trip with Plan the Unplanned (PTU) soon. - by Tapash for Kudremukh Monsoon Trek | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

I had been to Wayanad with Plan the Unplanned and it was a really memorable experience. The accommodation was safe, the food was really good quality and the trip was well organized. The trek leaders were the most enthusiastic people who were always ready to help. I made a lot of new friends during the trip and had a lot of fun. I would totally recommend travelling with Plan the Unplanned. - by Devayani Mm for Wayanad - Night Trek and Camping | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Hampi is a beautiful place and the trip with Plan The Unplanned made it even more memorable. This was the second time I went with them on a trip and it was totally worth it! The campsite, bouldering, coracle ride, hiking --- everything was spot on. The campsite owner (Mr. Naresh) is very helpful and friendly and the the food is yummmm. The trek leaders - Tarun and Srinidhi were very warm and full of energy! Highly recommended PTU and their trips! - by Tanishka Shorey for Explore Hampi Heritage Trek, Bouldering and Camping organized by Plan The Unplanned .

It's one of dream comes true experience, long, steep and best is the rain. Trekking in rain beside waterfalls and the final satisfaction we get when we reach the peak! The nature is at it's best. What more can one expect from mother earth. The trek leaders were very supportive, entertaining. We put all the responsibilities on there back and just enjoy the experience while they manages homestay, food, vehicle, forest guide and ofcourse us, when we doubt our capacity to climb more,loose energy! They stand by you support, motivate you. Overall a big thanks to the whole team for organising this wonderful trek, thanks to all guides(yash, oshin,karthik) . - by Vinitha for Kodachadri Trek with Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

My first Trip with PTU and it was just last moment plan, I just booked it one night before, without reading reviews, and experience was way beyond my expectation . It was my solo trip (not First), but as soon I met group and Track leads, a moments I couldn't feel that I was with random group. Trek was Easy (Nishani motte) but saying that " Journey matter more than Destination" It was that only. Met with random people now they are good friends, Trek leads were amazing, had really great night walks, games and unlimited fun. Cant ask for more. Looking forward many more trek and trips with #Plantheunplanned. End of trip they give you, your best part by giving you a tag Name.So I got #superwomenrashmi. Thanks So much Team Plantheunplanned - by Rashmi Vedi for Nishani Motte Coorg Monsoon Trek | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

I travelled on the 21st June weekend to Wayanad with Plan the unplanned. I was skeptical at first my very close friend had to push me hard to get on-board, since I am not a trek guy in the first place - but it honestly turned out to be an absolutely amazing and unexpectedly good experience. 1. Ease of transportation, planning and arrangements Ive driven to a lot of places in south India, but nothing beats the comfort of having someone else do all these things for you and let you enjoy the trip without having to worry about anything. Thats a big USP what will all our busy lives with work and all, the last thing I want to worry on my vacation is if the food is going to be alright or if the homestay is safe etc. you get the point. The stress-free outsourcing of planning to experts actually helps.2. If you go to google and do a search for places to visit in Wayanad you will get the usual and these usual places are boring, crowded and overhyped. Which brings me to the second point we went to the most unexplored and beautiful places in Wayanad names of which I still cant pronounce. We played in the cleanest waters ever and night camped at the most unusual viewpoints on hills. I am was scared of heights and water currents and this trip has helped immensely in overcoming some of that fear. I dont look like Hrithik Roshan, but I sure can relate to his feeling post his scuba diving experience in ZNMD.3. However, at the end of the day, its people who make or break trips/planned outings like these. One, our trek leads Prakriti and Megha were absolutely amazing to say the least. They were extremely helpful, accommodating and really cool. Oh and bey the way, theyre great people in general too genuine and welcoming. Two, the people we met on the trip were real fun I was there with a very close friend of mine and we came back with 4 more friends how cool is that? Of course, we were lucky too because the people on this specific trip were really cool this part of the experience might not be the same for everyone. The second days plan were a bit off and we couldve covered some more places. Ive to mention though - it was partly affected by us lazing around in the homestay and leaving very late. Even so, not much of a buzz kill since even at the homestay people were enjoying a lot. Everything said and done, I would easily rate it 4.7/5. The people, the seamless planning and the wonderful trek leads along with well-chosen itinerary made sure that the experience was really good even for non-trek people like me. A few points off for the second day plans although we were partially responsible for it leaving the homestay a bit too late. Bottomline way to go, PTU - by Syed for Wayanad - Night Trek and Camping | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Well, it was one heck of an experience. So I just moved to Bangalore and being a travel enthusiast, I started my journey with Plan The Unplanned and I couldn't ask for more. From management to trek leads, discovering offbeat places in the company of some great folks, everything was just perfect. Looking forward to do such kick-ass trips with you all and making some amazing memories to cherish forever! - by Aishwarya Gupta for Wayanad - Night Trek and Camping | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Did they're on 22-23 jun 2019. The experience was out of the world.!. Everything was well organised and the trek provided varied experiences...Waterfall, jungle trek, mountain hike, grassland trek, walking up the Jeep trail and finally, a thrilling ride down theek in 4 wheel drive jeeps swinging more dangerously than what they do while dune bashing in Dubai . Fantastic trek leads..And great company...Truly this trek created memories for a lifetime...Thank you PTU - by Amit Dube for Kodachadri Trek with Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Kudremukh trek has been limited to 50 people per day and when we were supposed to go there were many groups including ours waiting for the tickets. Jolly and adith managed to get 12 tickets inspite of the rush. The co founders came to kudremukh overnight and made sure all 19 of us got the tickets to trek. This was probably the best group of people I've trekked with, everyone pushed each other to reach the summit way before the anticipated time. From adith's stories to jolly's music to jathin's dancing I loved every bit! I loved how they focused on the experience itself. This included with the views made it an incredible experience. I'm definitely going back to other treks with plan the unplanned! Worth every bit - by Aditya Nataraj for Kudremukh Monsoon Trek | Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .

Met amazing people.. will definitely travel more with PTU - by Shruthi S for Kodachadri Trek with Plan The Unplanned organized by Plan The Unplanned .
