Places to visit near Bangalore in February
February suits 27 of the places we plan, from Mysore (about 145 to 150 km) to Kanyakumari (about 665 km by road from Bengaluru). Here is what each month means for your plan, and the places to consider.
February in South India
February is still pleasant and dry, and the heat has not yet built. It suits heritage trips, wildlife stays at Kabini and Bandipur, and the Kerala backwaters.
By the end of the month the plains start to warm up, so hill stations begin to fill. Forest areas are drying out, which can bring animals to the water, though sightings are never guaranteed.
With only two or three days, the nearest options in February are Mysore, Yercaud, Kabini and Bandipur. Longer trips go farther, as the table shows.
Our picks for February
- Bangalore to Kabiniabout 215 to 225 km, 5 to 5.5 hours by road
The forest is drying out, so animals gather near water and safari conditions are good, though sightings cannot be promised.
- Bangalore to Alleppeyabout 590 km, 10 to 12 hours by road
The backwaters are calm and the heat has not yet built, which makes a houseboat or village boat trip more comfortable.
- Bangalore to Badamiabout 450 to 510 km, 8 to 10 hours by road
Cave temples and red sandstone cliffs are best visited before the summer heat arrives.
- Bangalore to Pondicherryabout 310 to 320 km, 6 to 7 hours by road
Seafront walks, cafes and old streets in pleasant weather, before the coast warms up.
