Hello Travelers!

Makalidurga is the beautiful trekking destination for people who are looking for a quick escape from the city chaos. Makalidurga Hill is located at a distance of 60 Km from Bangalore city with an altitude of 4,430 feet. It is a moderately difficult trek filled with green bushes, shrubs, barren rocks, and boulders. 

The beauty of the hill adds more excitement to the trek. From the top of the hill, you can see a lake which is in the shape of South America, and every now and then a train passing through the bottom of the hills can be noticed. It’s a good place for some photography too.

Makalidurga is under control of the Forest Department as it falls in a wildlife zone. We will mark our attendance with forest officials before setting off.

Don’t wait, join us!


Highlights

  • Nice greenery all around
