About Hampi - Heritage Trek

The heritage city of Hampi which is referred to as ‘The group of monuments at Hampi’ is a UNESCO World Heritage site located in the east-central Karnataka, along with the shores of the Tungabhadra river. It was one of the world’s second-largest medieval-era city, the first being Beijing, and one of India’s richest city during 1500 C.E., as traders from Persia and Portugal flocked to the happening capital of Vijayanagara.

After being conquered by Mughal Sultanates in 1565, the city was plunged to ruins, giving rise to the modern-day Hampi. It is considered as a “Fantasy world of rocks and ruins” by the Lonely Planet. Partake in this beautiful trek, where the walls do hold stories of the past. And if the archaeology and architecture aren’t enough to raise goosebumps, we also take you across the river to the stunning Anjaneya hills, which is known for being an amazing viewpoint for sunsets and sunrise.

Detailed Itinerary:

Day 01:

You will be reaching Hampi early morning, freshen up and have a healthy hot breakfast and begin your trek with bouldering, something Hampi is known for. This requires you to use your body weight to climb the rocks. If you are afraid of doing so, don’t be. We have experienced professionals who will help you navigate and climb these rocks with ease.

This activity usually takes around 2 hours and might be a tad bit tiring, but we have something that might help you with the next part of your journey.
If you are too tired to walk to the next location, you will be provided with mopeds at the site which will help you to enjoy and restore your energy before we head on to Sanapur Lake. Sanapur lake is a reservoir of the river Tungabhadra and is known for cliff jumping. Plus there is no better way to relax than resting your legs in the cold soothing water while enjoying the beautiful scenery and talking with your group!
After a short rest, you start your trek to the Anjaneya hills. The Anjaneya hill, also known as the Hanuman hill, provides a beautiful view of the entire city and is an excellent viewpoint for watching the setting sun.
You will then head back to the campsite for dinner and enjoy a late-night walk to the rocks. The view from these rocks are breath-taking, the stars and the soft glow from the campfire create perfect harmony to make you fall in love with this place.

Day 02:

Wake up early morning, freshen up and have a healthy breakfast so as not to miss the amazing sunrise the Hemkuta hills have to offer. The beautiful colors of the sky, blend together to provide you with an ever-lasting memory of peace and tranquillity, and is the perfect addition, to last night’s breath-taking view.
The Hemkuta hills have a lot of temples that are dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Today’s journey will take you through the heritage that Hampi has to offer to you. You will begin your journey with the Virupaksha temple that is dedicated to Lord Shiva, who is also known as Virupaksha, the consort of Goddess Pampa. This beautiful temple lies among the ruins and still used as a place of worship.
You will then walk through the Mathanga hills to visit the Vitthala temple, which also houses the legendary Stone Chariot which is the symbol of Karnataka tourism.
It might be a lot to take in the rich culture of this beautiful city, so you have a refreshing ride across the river in a coracle. A coracle is a boat made of leather, plastic, and bitumen. The swaying motion across the river, while you are surrounded by the majestic city of Hampi is a surreal experience.
You will return to your campsite and then back to Banglore.
