The Rappa - Sakleshpur

Let me introduce the Gang - Vish, Ron, PK, Rufi & Vivek

Being together is a passion and hence we plan for an outing as & when one of the gang members ask for it.


It was after much research on the net that I planned for the Rappa and it was so much worth that we revisited this place again.

A place literally at the end of the road and the meaning of rappa in Kannada is a river bank.

The place is located on the back waters of the Gorur Dam and the water never dries here. The cottages are located away from each other and the dining area is made from naturally available resources. All the cottages face the water.


Right in front of all the cottages, in the middle of the river is an island and at the background is the dam. It's love at first sight for lovers of nature.

We jumped into the water with the life jackets and rowed the kayaks till we were tired. The food was delicious.


We took a nap on the island. Oh! forgot to mention that they have three lovely dogs that give the guests good company.

The ruins of an old church half submerged in the water is a kilometer away from this place.

Anyone planning to visit the place as bachelors - its an awesome place to chill out.
