Virupapur Gaddi
The Hippie Island
The other bank: paddy fields, cushion cafes, coracle crossings and sunsets.
The Tungabhadra's other bank: paddy fields between boulders, cushion-floor cafes and hammocks, and Anjanadri hill with its Hanuman temple, his legendary birthplace. Life runs slow: morning yoga, mopeds to Sanapur lake, boulder-top sunsets. Cross by coracle or motorboat, before dark.
Who it suits
sunsets and paddies cushion cafes long stays
Staying here
Yes, guesthouses amid the paddies: greener and calmer than the temple side.
In the evening
The last boat crosses before sunset; after that it's the long bridge detour.
Getting there
Coracle or motorboat across the river
