We went on a two day trip covering Nagarhole, Irupu falls, wayanad forest safari, and Kuruva dweep. We drove from Bangalore through Mysore, Hunsur, Nagarhole and Kutta. We stayed at Janey Moon (Mobile: 9448314055), home stay at Kutta. It was a nice accommodation which has three rooms and provide 4 course Veg meals at Rs 650/- and Non-veg at Rs 750/-. We reached this place by 1 am after starting at 7 am from Bangalore. My friend had got a new mapmyindia GPS which took us through real short routes!! It made us skip some good roads and took us through small routes through villages. This was due to setting the option as "optimal path". We had a small nap and then went to Irupu fall. It was a real good sight. (This is my second trip to this place and this time it looked better).We had lunch and then next day morning we went for Wayanad safari in the tholpatty range. This starts at 7am and can take it till 11am. The road from Kutta to this place is terrible as now all the vehicle take this route at night due to the closure of Nagarhole route. It costs Rs 300/- for the jeep, Rs 100/- for the guide (mandatory), Rs 150/25 for video/still camera and Rs 20/- per person for entry fee. Total it came out to be Rs 700/- for four of us. We like in any safari did not find any wild animal!! We saw deer, peacock and elephant.
Then we went to Kuruva dweep which is 14 km from here. We had our breakfast at Kattikulam and proceeded to kuruva dweep. Here you can get a boat ride (for Rs 10/-) to the dweep which is surrounded by water. There is a furt
her enterance charge and camera charge which you need to pay (came to Rs 100/-). If you trek a little long then one can have a nice place to bath and for some adventure sport.We were back in kutta after a lunch in Kattikulam and then collected our luggage from home stay and then took the srimala route to hunsur. This road was ok. We reached back bangalore by 11pm. So a nice way to freak out a weekend.
