About The Trip
Many of us might wake up at the crack of dawn, but how many of us actually have the time to watch the sunrise? Sometimes, our routines are so hectic, that even a deep breath can feel like a luxury.
If you find yourself in a rut, it’s time to take a well-deserved break with Plan the Unplanned and our Kaiwara Betta trek offers the perfect pause.
Even though this is not one of the more challenging treks, if you are up for it, we can promise you stunning landscapes, crisp morning air and a thrilling journey that will culminate in the most spectacular sunrise.
As you make your way through the trail, you will get to connect not only with nature and other trekkers, but also with yourself. Those moments of peace and calm that you find for yourself, while on this trek, will last you a lifetime. And like the 200+ trekkers we host on repeat every month - your experience will certainly inspire you to trek with us again.
After all, who doesn’t like being away from the noise of the city and listening to their own inner voice, every once in a while?
Trek highlights
Even though the Kaiwara Betta trek difficulty level is moderate, this is an overnight trip – we will whisk you away from Bangalore the previous night, arriving at the base of the trek in the wee hours of the morning. It is a sunrise trek, after all, which means that we need to get you to the top of the trail, before the sun comes up!
- A challenging climb with our trek leaders and other trekkers = guaranteed fun
- Witness the golden light of the sun pour over the land that lies below
- Explore the summit and soak up the panoramic views
- Make sure to get some images for the ‘gram!
- Return to the base for a well-deserved breakfast
At Plan the Unplanned, we have treks for everyone – whether you are a first timer or a pro; whether you want an entire weekend getaway or just a few hours. With us, the chance to reset and reconnect gets easier!

Your journey begins at 11:00pm in Bengaluru when you are lost in the star-studded sky, with the city lights fading in the background. You will find a curious bunch of fellow trekkers - ardent nature lovers and adventure seekers to first timers wanting to tick off something from their bucket list or try something new. With excitement in the air, we begin with a few ice-breaking sessions - the best way to get to know your fellow trekkers and unwind from the long weekday stress. We relax, take a light nap and a few hours later we arrive at our start point for an exhilarating day ahead.

The trek starts at 5:30am following a brief permit check. It is morning, the air is fresh, the trail is quiet and the sky gradually begins to awaken with us. The way up goes serenely step by step and all around we are surrounded by the quiet that nature creates and the fine crunch of gravel under our feet.
In a little time we arrive at the top, just in time to see the sunrise. The scene is incredible. The sunlight is golden and trickles down the mountains and at that second everything seems to be at rest. It is one of those mornings that you will be remembering after many years.
Having soaked all that in and having taken some fantastic photos, we begin the descent. The descent seems more natural, and jovial conversation is continued and that afterglow of sunrise is not yet lost.
At 8:30am we are back at the base to enjoy an early well-deserved breakfast. With satisfied stomachs and now restored spirits we laugh, tell tales and live over the highlights of the hike.
As we drive back to Bangalore, at around 1:00pm, we end the trip tired, happy, and already dreaming of the next one.
