Reviewed By navneethkrishnan - Bangalore District, India

One of the best trekking spot near Bangalore. If you like pristine nature walk / trekking of moderate grade near Bangalore , then this is the right one for you. Good relaxation for your eyes , mind and body. you see lots of water bodies, greenery, unique looking rocks , beautiful view of the betta ( beautiful view of 2nd highest mono rock in Asia- gigantic single rock with 2 peaks. ). Part of Savanadurga reserve forest. Easy to book through eco trails, Very friendly guides are available, not much crowded, hence better to take nature guides help, else you might feel lost / lonely. There are two trekking in this area 1) Bidarakatte the easy one and 2) Savanadurga the bit harder one.

SRS Hills

Reviewed By LibraTheTraveller - Bangalore District, India

Ramanagara is around at a distance of 49 kms from Bangalore. We started from kengeri ksrtc bus station at around 6:30 am in a ksrtc bus which headed to mysuru. We got down at ramanagara ksrtc bus station at around 8:30 am. We had a quick breakfast at a near by hotel at a reasonable price. We took a local auto from the bus station to the srs hills which is at around 14 kms from the ramanagar ksrtc bus station. We reached the hills in 20 minutes. We started our trek at around 9:30 am and reached the peak by 12:00 pm and took the blessings of the lord sri revanasiddeshwara swami. We got down the hills by 1:30 pm. And again we took a ksrtc bus from srs to the ramanagara ksrtc bus station. We Had our lunch at a near by hotel. We started back to the Bangalore by 3:00 pm. There are very frequent ksrtc bus available both the ways. Recommendings : -Do not trek during rainy / on high sunny days. -Do not start the trek in empty stomach. -have enough water bottles and other refreshments in the bag packs. -Be careful about the bag packs as there are monkeys which might snatch the things away from you -Be more careful while visiting with toddlers and elderly people. As there are very small steps that are steep and slippery which might be comparatively more challenging to them. *overall it was a tremendous trek which gave an extremely refreshing atmosphere *definitely, one feels to re-trek *as the trek can be completed soon within half a day, one gets enough time to visit a near by well known place called "janapada loka" (closed on Tuesdays). -A MUST TREKKING HILL❤

Ramadevara Betta Hill

Reviewed By CBSKUMAR - Bengaluru, India

This is a delightful, fulfilling and rewarding trek ! The famous bollywood movie “Sholay” was shot around this area, long back. Start & end early. Plenty of scenery & greenery with natural light, available for photography. Here are some highlights about this hike :-  Nice breakfast options enroute along the highway.  Small entrance fee at the start of the hike.  Ample parking room & quite safe for Cars & Bikes.  Hiking shoes with good traction needed to negotiate rocks.  Carry some water to the top.  Scarf or Bandana will help.  Well set up path up the hill with railing & steps.  The last stretch of single rock has mini steps to the very top, that are dangerous to climb up/down.  The temple on the way down offered us lunch around noon.  The toilet in the middle of the hill is dark & poorly maintained.

Makalidurga

Reviewed By josebiBLR - Bengaluru, India

Nice place for a quick trek near to bangalore, around 70 kms from city. one should start the trek before the sunrise to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Once you reach the summit, you can see the neighbouring hills and hillocks covered in white clouds. Cool wind and clouds coverinh you will take you to a different world. Fort amd temple are in ruins, there is a hiding place on top similar to cave which most of the trekkers miss to find. Entry fee of 450 INR plus service charge of around 20 per person is not at all justified for the facilities they provide. In fact zero facilities. This is atleast 10 times the fees they charge in the neighbouring state of kerala for a similar trek.
