Backpacking Getaways: Relaxed Trips Without the Climb

What to expect

Think of these as curated road trips rather than physical endurance tests. We trade heavy trekking boots for comfortable walking shoes and focus on exploring the local culture, hitting those viewpoints, and finding the best local food spots. If you have been wanting to see Munnar’s tea gardens or the mist in Kodaikanal without the stress of planning, this is for you.

Who is this for

These trips are perfect if you are a solo traveler, a first-timer, or just a group of friends who want to get out of Bangalore for the weekend. We get people from all walks of life, and the best part is the connection. By the time the bus heads back, you usually have a new group of friends.

What we handle

We know the logistics can be a pain. We organize everything from the bus departing Bangalore on Friday night to your local homestay and meals. We keep it simple. You get the fun parts, we deal with the permit paperwork and local transport coordination. It is all about the BPU vibe, after all.
