Getting There
Explore the Hidden Paradise of the Western Ghats (Sahyadri) – Your Ultimate Getaway
Nestled securely within the lush forests of the Western Ghats, an ancient paradise awaits your discovery. The Sahyadri range, older than the Himalayas, has safeguarded India’s western coastline for millennia, blessing the Deccan plateau with nourishing monsoon rains and serving as a UNESCO World Heritage site teeming with unique flora and fauna. Situated over 1000 feet above sea level, the Sahyadri offers a consistently cool climate, occasionally dipping into frosty temperatures during the winter months.
At the foot of these majestic hills lies Sakleshpur, a vibrant town adorned with historic temples, ancient forts, and meandering streams. Trekking trails suitable for all skill levels crisscross the town, inviting exploration. Sakleshpur’s economy thrives on coffee and spice plantations, creating a lush, mist-covered landscape as far as the eye can see. Located just 220 kilometers from Bangalore (150 km from Mysore and 130 km from Mangalore), Sakleshpur’s surreal beauty provides the perfect escape between the bustling metropolises and a life in the clouds.
While the Sahyadri’s higher peaks experience intense cold during the winter, Laughter in the Rain, nestled at its base, enjoys a tropical climate with an average temperature of 24 °C, complemented by a pleasant touch of humidity.

The Biodiversity of the Sahyadri: A Haven for Rare Wildlife
The Sahyadri region boasts an incredible wealth of rare and diverse creatures, spanning across the land, water, and sky. Over centuries, the interactions among its rich ecosystem have contributed to the flourishing rainforest we witness today. Among the 139 species of mammals, 508 species of birds, and 102 species of freshwater fish inhabiting this area, approximately 325 are classified as critically endangered. Some of the most renowned inhabitants of the Western Ghats include the majestic Bengal tiger and the Asian elephant.
In addition to these notable species, the Sahyadri is also home to the endangered purple frog and a variety of mollusks and annelids that thrive in the crystal-clear streams flowing through the hills. Bird enthusiasts will be delighted by sightings of the elusive Malabar gray hornbill and the exquisite Malabar parakeet, both perched high in the lush foliage. The region also hosts a diverse array of butterflies, with 334 known species gracing the flowering bushes.
The Sahyadri boasts numerous wildlife sanctuaries and national parks, serving as vital corridors for the movement of unique and vulnerable big cats like the Black Panther, Leopard, and Malabar large-spotted Civet. The extremely rare Dhole, often referred to as the ‘Whistling Dog,’ is another remarkable resident of the Sahyadri.
These magnificent creatures are predominantly found in the Western Ghats, making this region their exclusive sanctuary, found nowhere else on Earth.
Geography
Discover the Great Escarpment of India: The Sahyadri Range
Known as the Great Escarpment of India, the Sahyadri Range stretches parallel to the Arabian Sea, covering a vast distance of 1600 kilometers and reaching 30 to 50 kilometers inland from India’s western coast. Starting from the northern Satpura Range, this remarkable range extends southward, passing through Goa, Karnataka, and into Kerala, ultimately culminating in the highest peak, Anaimudi, which soars to an impressive 2695 meters above sea level.
The high-altitude evergreen forest ecosystem that thrives within these hills significantly influences India’s monsoon weather patterns, providing a captivating example of the monsoon system at work.
The Sahyadri serves as the source for life-sustaining water bodies like the Tungabhadra, the Krishna, and the Godavari, all of which originate in this region before flowing into the Bay of Bengal. These water bodies nourish the tropical wet evergreen forests and montane grasslands found throughout the area, hosting a wealth of medicinal plants and serving as crucial genetic resources that include the wild counterparts of grains, fruits, and spices.
