Escape to the cool Eastern Ghats with our 3N/4D Daringbadi Tour, a refreshing hill getaway from Bhubaneswar to the serene hill station of Daringbadi. This 3N/4D Daringbadi Tour blends long scenic drives, pine jungles, coffee and pepper plantations, valley viewpoints, and optional Belghar excursions for a slow, nature-filled retreat in Odisha’s rare mountain climate.
Arrive in Bhubaneswar and meet our tour representative at the airport or railway station. Set off early for Daringbadi in the Kandhamal hills, roughly 247 km and around 5.5 to 6.5 hours by road via NH16 and NH59, or a slightly shorter run via Nayagarh and Odagaon. This is a long travel day and is built as one — an early start is essential to reach the hills in daylight, since the final stretch is winding Ghat road best not driven after dark. Break the drive with a lunch stop and a leg-stretch en route. Arrive in the late afternoon, check in at the Daringbadi Nature Camp or a hill resort, and settle in by a bonfire as the temperature drops. Overnight stay in Daringbadi.
A full, unhurried day among the hill station’s spread-out sights, rewarding the long drive of Day 1. Visit the pine jungle and the coffee and pepper plantations, the Emu farm at Kirikuti (about 14 km out), Lover’s Point where the Doluri river winds through the valley (about 13 km), the Butterfly Park, and the sunset viewpoint. The pleasure here is the cool climate and the scenery rather than a checklist. In peak winter, dawn can bring frost — a rarity found nowhere else in Odisha. Overnight stay in Daringbadi.
With the return drive still ahead, this day stays close to base: a slow morning in the hills, a walk through the plantations, a second look at the valley viewpoints in different light, or an optional excursion toward the Belghar sanctuary belt for those wanting more forest and tribal-country scenery. This is the day the hill station is actually enjoyed rather than driven to. Overnight stay in Daringbadi.
After an early breakfast, check out and begin the long return descent to Bhubaneswar, around 247 km and 5.5 to 6.5 hours by road. Timed to leave the hills in the morning, the drive reaches Bhubaneswar by evening for an onward train or flight. An optional break at Chilika (Barkul) or a temple stop can be added if the schedule allows. Overnight journey onward.
