From a very long we were planning for an adventurous road trip and were in dilemma to decide one good place with short drive and a long vacation, finally we decided it to be Masinagudi. I wanted to visit this place from quite some time but due to some reasons I never got a chance. It is a place which is situated in Mudumalai forest which is approx 220+ KM from bangalore. It is the border between Karnataka and Tamilnadu. The other side of Mudumalai is Bandipur forest which is in karnataka if your travelling from Bangalore / Bengaluru which is also very famous and known for Bandipur Tiger Reserve and Jungle stay.
Masinagudi is known for Tree tops / Tree houses, jungle stay, photography, birding, short treks etc. It is one of the perfect gateway for a weekend to spend time with family or friends in the lush green forest. The forest comprise of animals like, Elephant, Tiger, Peacock, Bear, Deer, Bison, Birds etc. Would recommend to go for a early morning drive from Masinagudi to Bandipur Forest to enjoy the nature. We were lucky to spot good number of Deer, Peacock, Elephant and a Bear in the forest.
I am a person who believes in my inner conscious and 6th sense and most of the time I never plan for accommodation or stay or even places that I need to travel for the matter. We had decided the place to be Masinagudi and took my friends without any plans. But trust me this was one of my most memorable trip in my life. We drove all the way to Masinagudi and found out that there were no tree tops accomodation left or the one which was available was not worth it. So we decided to google and found a deep jungle home which was approx 20km from Masinagudi town in the other part of Mudumalai forest. We decided to drive and found out the place to be pretty good. For our luck we also got treetop accommodation and it was quite spacious jungle home. We played volley ball in rain played football with the dog, had good food, took snaps with ducks trust me it was a perfect weekend gateway. Next day morning we took our cameras and went for a drive to Bandipur Forest. We were able to capture Elephant, Deer, peacock and got chance to listen to those melodious bird calls Bear on the move, it was simply awesome. I never imagined I would get chance to capture those wonderful creatures that day as it usually stay low due to vehicle movement.
The forest gates will remain closed from night 9PM to morning 6AM. Carrying Liquor is prohibited from one state to another, there will be a strict check in Tamilnadu border. Do NOT throw or use plastic, please keep it environment friendly. Teasing wild animals or getting out of vehicle might lead to unwanted troubles.
