    The plantations usually open around 7 am and close around 5 pm. In October the mornings are noticeably lighter, with fewer vehicles on the winding roads. By mid afternoon the traffic starts to build, especially on weekends, so if you’re short on time a 9 10 am walk will let you enjoy the spice rows before the crowds arrive. If you’re staying near the town you might consider staying at Machaan Plantation Resort Sakleshpur to be close to the trailheads.
