Bananthimari Betta Trek

What better way to spend a weekend than out and about in nature? Embark on this Bananthimari Betta trek and explore one of the unexplored hills near Bangalore. Just a few hours outside the city, surrounded by pastoral greens you are sure to feel a sense of rejuvenation. 

Chirping of birds, rustling of leaves, cool breeze in your ears and the hard ground below are a welcome escape from the screens of our day to day lives. Bangalore makes for an excellent location to explore the hills and ghats of Karnataka, pick a spot and leave the city behind during the weekends.

 

Destination

Just about 70 km away from Bangalore, lies the unexplored hills of Bananthimari Betta. The base for the trek is a Devi Temple, and the vehicles will park about half a km from the temple. You will trek through a muddy trail before reaching the temple and then will follow along the uphill trail to the peak. Along the route you will come across a pond with a shrine of Nandi.

If you are trekking during the monsoons you are sure to come across several season streams and waterfalls as well. But no matter which weekend you pick for the trek, you are guaranateed an amazing day amidst nature.
