Sharavathi Kandla Mangrove Boardwalk, Honnavara

This wooden path winds its way through the Sharavathi River and mangroves. At around 1.5 kilometres, a very narrow wooden walkway leads you over an area that resembles an island in the middle of a mangrove forest. Display boards showcase&nbspinformation about the fauna and flora in the area. The nearby Kasarkod Eco Beach has several food options, if you get hungry after the walk. Another interesting thing to look out for is the Mavinakurve Rail Tunnel through the Sharavathi river.
