Plan The Unplanned presents Kayaking on Shambhavi river !!

Kayaking on an Indian river is perhaps the most thrilling experience that anyone can ask for! While you must have always thought of it as an exotic water sport - we are here you to take you for a wilderness ride on a Kayak.

During this trip, you will get to sail and cover a total distance of 28 km on a kayak. From one side of the Palimar Dam where the water of Arabian Sea gushes into the Shambhavi River in Karnataka, you'll sail up to the other end of the dam where camps will be set up. Surrounded by the Western Ghats, the camping site is amidst nature, by the banks of the river.

Once the dam gets narrow and you slowly enter the river, you'll realize that this place is nature's best kept secret and it's one of those virgin destinations of South India that aren't explored by many. The beautiful landscape can only be explored through the waterway and kayaking here would be the most adventurous ride!
