Trekking to the Z Point, Chikmagalur

The 3 km long challenging trek to the Z Point starts from Kemmangundi Raj Bhavan. En route to the top, you’ll come across a small waterfall (also known as Shanti Waterfalls) where you can take a dip in the water to freshen up.

It is said that until the waterfall comes, the trek can be easily accessed by the trekkers. But, once you cross that point, it gets a little hard as the road that takes you further becomes narrower with no fences or railings available for support. Although there are many challenges that you need to face while on this trek, the view you get to see after covering the entire distance is worth all your hard work.

Best Time to Visit Z Point, Chikmagalur
