[ Visit to G o k a r n a - Govt Guest House.]

If you want to visit Gokarna plan your visit to go by road from Shivmoga taking NH 17 which as of now is simply wonderful to drive with ever green forests on either side of the road.The problem is there is only one Hotel much farther from Gokarna and at Gokarna there is no good well maintained Hotel or Restaurant,but you have a Govt Guest House at Jog Falls which looks very attractive but it is not available just like that,good rooms will never be allotted to ordinary folks and the authority who does it is not on the spot.It is Govt Guest house built from Tax payers money for Tax collecting authorities.The picture above has no sign board at the place as Govt Guest House.The Gate is kept Locked so no car other than a Politician or a Bureaucrat car enters.There is no office at site.
This is KARNATAKA TOURIST arrangement.
