Some 15 Kms before Ankola, there is a small pilgrimage town called Gokarna which is 10 kms inside from the National Highway 17, this is where I am presently.

I also came to know about Mirjan Fort and Aganashini River which I crossed and visited Mirjan Fort on my way to Gokarna. 15 Kms before Ankola, Gokarna route parted from the National Highway and I had to ride through hills to reach Gokarna. This exhaustion paid-off as this place is something about which I would love to share with you in my next blog tomorrow.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18384\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18384\" style=\"width: 665px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/my-india\/travel\/day-13-murudeshwar-to-gokarna-karnataka-kanyakumari-to-leh-cycling\/attachment\/aganashini-river-bridge\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-18384\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-my-custom-thumb wp-image-18384\" alt=\"Aganashini River bridge\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/ci-moi-images\/my-india\/Aganashini-River-bridge-665x498.jpg\" width=\"665\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/ci-moi-images\/my-india\/Aganashini-River-bridge-665x498.jpg 665w, https:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/ci-moi-images\/my-india\/Aganashini-River-bridge-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/ci-moi-images\/my-india\/Aganashini-River-bridge-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/ci-moi-images\/my-india\/Aganashini-River-bridge.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18384\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aganashini River bridge<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I witnessed the greener and beautiful side of Karnataka today while cycling as so far, I had developed some other mindset for western Karnataka which was contrary to what I saw today.
