Z point

Z point

One must try the Z point trek while in Chikmagalur. Its 3.5km one way walk, the road starts through forest and opens up in grassland slopes. The trek is quite easy and most of the path is flat land. Towards the end we experienced wind velocity at almost 80kmph. Always struggle to reach the peak, as the views are mesmerizing.
