hmm, try wayanad. really beautiful.
then see if u can make it to tushargiri waterfalls near kozhikode. they r remote n involve a bit of trekking. 1 or 2 kms straight up through really dense jungles. then u ca also try the munnar area. if u want to stay close to civilisation, go to kodai/ooty. if u wanna check some pics of these places, just ping back.

Karnataka Trekking
For trekking places in Karnataka refer to http://dreamroutes.org/etc/alltreks.html as a starting point.
I would recommend any of these - Kumara Parvata - Tediyandamol - Narasimha Parvata - Kodachadri |
