Savandurga Trekking and Other Adventures, Bangalore

About the Destination:

While on Savandurga trekking, the huge boulder ridden mountains of Savandurga beckon for a unique and adventure filled sojourn. Among the largest monolithic rocks in Asia, it is around 60 km from Bangalore. The craggy charm towers at 1226m above sea level. It is formed by two hills, Karigudda (meaning black hill) and Biligudda (meaning white hill).

Savandurga is flanked by wilderness areas that comes under the Magadi town.  While you are here, you may spot wildlife like elephants, Indian bears, snakes, leopards, deer’s and more. Another appeal is the Manchinbele Dam that is plonked on one side of the mountain. It provides drinking to the Magadi Town.
