Well, this has planned trip with all our colleagues. We choose Mullayanagiri for Trekking. We started our journey from Koramangala at around 10PM in the night on 3rd Dec 2010. Myself, Kumar and other Ujjivan colleagues were added in the trip. We had nitght journey from Bangalore to Chikkamagalore. We had had drinks through out the night with rocking songs.We reached Chikkamagalore on next day morning around 6AM , i was buzzed a lot and making so fun  with friends. We all went to Top hills of Mullayanagiri, Hills were looking like heaven in the morning mist. We liked hills like ourselves. We thought of doing trek at hills, but we were not able to do trek as we did not have proper guide. We planned of trek at Kemmungundi hills. So we moved to Kemmungundi hills where we had lunch. we started trekking over there. We trekked almost 10Kms from hills to Falls. We reached falls called Habbe which was looking excellent, I think that is most beautiful falls ever seen till then. We were being watered each other. We started our trek back from falls to hills but time was about 8PM in the night. Forest was too blacky. we were not able to see any things near by us. we though of doing night trek but we didn't have lights and also one of team mates was being injured hence we hired jeep to reach hills.  We reached hills at around 9PM there we had planned of night journey to Murudeshwara Beach next day.

On the way, we got restaurant where we had lot of drinks and foods. we danced and enjoyed lot. We were worried about Driver as he was too slow in driving and not co-operating with us. I guess Driver is most important for any successful and enjoyable trip. We reached Murudeshwar on next day morning . we had break fast then started our play in the beach, We played like anything.
