Gadayikallu Trekking Suspended Again from July 8 Amid Heavy Rain

Trekking in the scenic Gadayikallu range of Udupi district has been suspended again, starting July 8, as heavy rains pose a risk of landslides and water hazards along the popular routes.

The Uttara and Netravati valleys have experienced heavier rainfall this monsoon season, leading to reports of slippery slopes and flash flood warnings. Local authorities, in consultation with forest department officials, have decided to halt trekkers to ensure safety, a precaution that follows a previous suspension earlier this month.

The suspension is expected to affect both local tourists and adventure groups, potentially leading to cancellations and economic impact on nearby villages that rely on trekking tourism. Travelists are advised to check official updates before planning visits. Source: Google News – Udupi.
