Masinagudi Trip

This time, we decided to take-off to Masinagudi, on the eve of Pongal.

We started on the night (as usual!!) of 13th Jan in our mate Satish's Esteem from Bangalore, around 10 PM.
We are four of us this time. We took the route of Bangalore > Mysore Road > Mysore > Bandipur Forest > Gundulpet > Masinagudi. We reached off the destination around 530 to 6 AM in the morning. In brief, Masinagudi is a place which is in the foot-hills of Ooty. Masinagudi is surrounded by the Ooty hills, Reserve forest areas of Mudumalai and Bandipur. Both the forests are rich in wild-life.

We checked into a hotel called "The Monarch" (Which is owned by the popular film-star Mithun Chakravarthy). It is a double-bedded room (with extra 2-beds) and it was decent and clean. They charged around Rs.2500/- per day.
