    You might also time the trek so you reach the summit before noon; the ridge is usually dry then and the trail gets cooler as the day goes on. After the descent, a quick 15 km drive to Hidlumane is flat and often takes under an hour, giving you plenty of daylight to enjoy the falls before sunset. If you prefer a nearby base, Hotel Ambika International Byndoor is close to both the temple and the trailhead.
