PLAN A SHOWSTRING BUDGET TRIP FOR GANESHGUDI BIRDING

Planning a trip to Ganeshgudi can also be made with a shoe string budget. Let’s see how this can be achieved. By local Bus from Madgaon to KTC Bus depo at Goa to Panaji. Take a Kadamba or KSRTC bus from Panaji to Ramnagar which lies on Panjim-Hubbali Route. From Ramnagar take a local bus to Ganeshgudi and get down at Checkpost stop.

From there 10 minutes’ walk to OMH. Londa to Ramnagar local buses are available.

From Bangalore / Mysore: KTC / KSRTC operates their buses to Dandeli and Ganeshgudi at scheduled intervals. Hence we can enjoy the Birding at Ganeshgudi on a shoestring budget also.

Blue Capped Rock thrush, the  multi colour resident bird in Ganeshgudi is another major attraction for the Bird Photography.
