Nandi Hills Experience: We were a group of friends on a Diesel Nissan Micra on our way to Lamb of God concert!, had a night long trip from Hyderabad. We were terribly sleepy by the time we were near Bangalore. Luckily we were very near to Nandi hills and we thought why don't we just have a peek. Glad we did!! what a cloudy morning we had over there!! we just parked our car on the valley top, and went around mesmerized at the early morning glory and the cool pleasant air drifting all around us! The view from that hill top is absolutely awesome, we were over there for couple of hours and we didn't even realize it!!! We had a good breakfast of bread and omlette and it was good! Overall we were so refreshed in the nature's lap and I am sure I will visit again probably with my girl next time!! ;)
Food, sight-seeing and shopping: Well, time just passes by at Nandi Hills, have water and some energy bars handy. Its a huge place and the best time would be early morning dawn and sunset view would be too good! Explore the place in full, there are lot of tree houses in there, though i haven't got to stay in them. There are couple of decent food joints in there, basic amenities like food, water and refreshments are available.
Activities & things to do: Explore in full, ideal for cycling and trekking. Photographers will love this place. Its very pleasant and peaceful out there. take time, relax and replenish! Meditate, have fun and have some romantic moments out there!! you will have your place and space!! The good part is its quite close to Bangalore which makes it an ideal week-end holiday destination!
Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc: Its quite accessible by road, connecting Hyderabad- Bangalore Highway, Bike rides and cycling treks from Bangalore would be ideal and amazing! Start early mornings and get enough water with you. Carry good jackets and protective gear, carry a first aid kit in emergencies. Have a good camera, you will know why! Have a safe trip and have awesome memories!
