Aramane Betta, Venkatagiri, Mugilagiri, Are Betta and Yedakumeri are the popular trekking spots. Shiradi. Shirady ghat connects the coastal district of Dakshina Kannada with the Hassan district. The National highway 75 (Old NH-48) road starts from the seaport city of Mangaluru in Dakshina Kannada district and connects to Karnataka state capital Bengaluru. The Western Ghats lie inbetween coastal plains adjoining the Arabian Sea and the Deccan Plateau. The stretch of the National Highway passing through the Shiraadi Ghat is poorly maintained according to sources. It was upgraded by the National Highways Authority of India at a cost of ₹ 26 crore. Elephants have also been sighted on the road.[4][5] In 2012, the Government of Karnataka sought help from the Japanese government to bore a tunnel through the ghat.[6] Later, the State Government released money to keep the road motorable during rains. Shiradi Ghat will have a tunnel bypass road, the construction project will begin before December 2016. The proposed tunnel bypass road is expected to be 29 km and provides seamless travel through the ghat stretch with 6 tunnels and 10 bridges. The new project costing Rs. 12,000 crore would be executed with financial assistance from the Japan International Co-operation Agency (JICA).
