Weekend Trips From Bengaluru

Home / Bengaluru Trips

Bengaluru sits closer to two very different kinds of getaway than most cities do. Hampi's UNESCO ruins are a long-weekend road trip away, practically in Karnataka's own backyard. And Kerala's backwaters — houseboats, sunsets, the works — are a short flight south, no long leave required.

Experienced trek leaders and a small-group, safety-first setup — this page rounds up what makes the most sense starting from Bengaluru.

Getting There

Hampi is roughly 340 km — about 6-7 hours by road, or an overnight train/bus. Most visitors treat it as a proper weekend trip, travelling one way overnight.
