If you’re looking for a quick weekend getaway from Bangalore city, Kabini is a more than ideal destination. This magical land has the perfect mix of elements to ensure an exhilarating, fun-filled weekend trip for you and your family.

These pristine backwaters coupled with the Nagarhole National Park, create a hospitable environment for a plethora of wildlife. In this article, we talk about why Kabini is the ideal weekend destination from Bangalore, and how easy it is to get here.

 

Location: Being located only 250 kilometers from both Bangalore and Coimbatore makes Kabini easy to access. The roads from Bangalore to Kabini are well connected as well, with a scenic drive from Mysore onwards. Those planning a trip to Mysore can also include Kabini in their itinerary since Kabini is only 60km from Mysore. Kabini is also accessible by public transport, should you wish to commute that way.

Experiences: Despite being only a few hour’s drives from Bangalore city Kabini is an entirely different world. Drive into the Nagarhole National Park on a jungle safari, in open-top jeeps that ensure every side of the jungle can be comfortably viewed. Nagarhole is home to around 300 species of birds, 50-60 species of small and large mammals, 74 species of reptiles, and plenty besides. Besides flora and fauna, Kabini is also the home of the Kurubas, a tribal community whose roots lie in the forest. They are expert mahouts, honey gatherers, and trackers in the wild, and their stories will provide a whole new perspective when it comes to how people used to live in the wild.
