Sakleshpur 2021

When you are hearing unfortunate news all about C-19, you need to get away for a while and see something beautiful and mesmerising.

You will have to revoke in you, that there is still a ray of hope in everybody’s life. That there is a beautiful day tomorrow, and that the nature is taking a break too, from being itself for all that we have done to it.



Nature has really been very kind to us, everyday, every minute …in having such beautiful places…which welcomes you…without judging for what you are or who you are.


We took a last minute shot and decided to go to a place, where we can just be amidst nature…and yet have all the facilities that one needs to connect with the outside world.




Machaan Plantation Resort, Sakleshpur  was a paradise in disguise. The hues and sounds of nature, that took me away and reminded me to put my feet on the ground. Well, although the experience was nothing less than a literal ‘walk in the cloud’. The terrain reminds you and literally translates itself and says, to reach and experience beauty, you need to work hard.


Trekking Trail to 'Pandava Gudda’, was breathtaking. The trail starts off with a small temple, Betta Byraveshwara Temple, about 600 years old. Each and everytime you took a breath, you could actually feel the fresh and pure air rejuvenating you. Surrounded by Western Ghats. View at 1300 feet above the sea level was absolutely gorgeous.




Hot tea and refreshment that were served when you are having ‘A blissful sight during the evening walk’ is never-to-forget experiences.


Machaan, is not just a resort…it’s also the people who welcome you whole heartedly…they mean their hospitality which makes the place all the more, a lets-go-again place!


I am kind of a person who would want to visit new places and experience different backgrounds….but Machaan, is a place where I would go again! 


Until next time ….Signing off for now with a hot cuppa and a blanket on my feet :)
