Bisle Ghat

-

Bisle Ghat route from Kukke subramanya is quite avoided one. Because of narrow road and dense forest. Once we enter the forest area one should drive quite a long distance in totally remote route. But considering the road condition in Sakleshpura we advised by localities to take this route. Since it was a weekday even traffic was bit less. 



Drive through this route was crazy. It was raining heavily and though it was around 11.00 AM we were feeling like it's around 6.00 AM in the morning. Because of mist road visibility was just around 10 feet. I just enjoyed each turn of the drive. I could not wait to take out my camera to capture the beauty, but I was driving! Quickly stopped and exchanged seat with Anil so that i can click some pics. 







From Kukke subramanya, Bisle Ghat view point is around 25 Kms, but because of narrow road it will easily take more than 1 hour to cross this ghat section. 

About Bisle Ghat: Bisle Ghat has a viewpoint for getting a beautiful view of the surrounding mountain ranges. This place is also known as Bisle Forest Reserve that is a famous sanctuary in the Western Ghats housing a wide variety of flora and fauna. Bisle Betta is the viewpoint to get the extraordinary view of the surroundings. Bisle ghat at the other end forest reserve acts as a natural porch that connects the Pushpagiri Wildlife Sanctuary. The fantastic view and the landscape of Bisle Ghat view Point have made this place one of the popular places to visit around Sakleshpura.












Stopped near Bisle Ghat view point for a while, there is a Watchtower to enjoy the beauty of Western Ghats. Entry to this place is free. One should walk around 100 meters from main road to reach the watchtower. The day we visited this place it was totally covered by mist could not see anything. But did quick photo session and headed back to our car. 

We avoided taking sakleshpura route. Joined to NH-75 (Bangalore - Haasan highway) near Channarayana Pattana. But missed the route on the way which caused 2 extra hours for us to reach back bengaluru. 


Location: Bisle Ghat Rd, Karnataka, India

Kabbalu betta trekking is one of the options for the hikers around bengaluru and located near Kanakapura talluku. Its   around 80Kms from Bengaluru. We have couple of options to reach Kabbalu:  Bangalore > Ramnagar > Chenpatna > Kabbalu (82 KMs) Bangalore > Kanakapura > Satanuru >Kabbalu (87 Kms) I had been to this place many times before but could not get a change to trek this hill, it is one of the best places for those who wish to start trekking.  Since it’s a last minute plan, could not invite anyone for this trekking. But the special thing about this trekking is my brother Kiran joined me for this trekking. It was the first trekking with my brother.  Just to escape from the weekend traffic and the heat we started early morning around 6.00AM from Bengaluru and took Kanakapura Road to reach our destination. Even though it’s a single road the drive was awesome, last night rain added more beauty to the surrounding environment. ...

Horsley Hills is one of the perfect weekend getaway from Bengaluru, a bike ride to Horsley Hills offers a thrilling and scenic adventure. Located in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, Horsley Hills is approximately 150 KM from Bengaluru, making it an ideal destination for a short road trip.   We can take multiple routes to reach Horsley Hills but we chose,   Bengaluru – Hoskote – Chintamani – Madanapalle – Horsley Hills route. Its approximately 150 KM from Bengaluru and need 4-5 hours (depending on number of breaks we take).   The road conditions are generally good, with a mix of highways and country roads. After Hoskote, it's a single road, but the condition is relatively good. Be cautious of some potholes and patches after crossing Chintamani. Arvind and I started our ride at 5:30 AM to avoid city traffic and enjoy the cool morning breeze. The roads were relatively empty, and the slight drizzling added to the beauty of the journey. After riding for about 30 kilome...
