South Karnataka Treks

Kaiwara Betta is a straightforward hill trek near Bengaluru that combines a short forest approach with rocky sections and wide summit views. The climb is manageable for beginners, making it a good choice for first-time trekkers, families, and small groups. Early morning starts work best, especially in summer, when the hill stays cooler and visibility is usually clearer.

Savandurga is a short day trek near Bengaluru built on a massive granite monolith. The route is direct, mostly rocky, and exposed with limited shade. It suits beginners who are comfortable with steady uphill walking. The summit gives a wide view of the surrounding hills and Arkavathi backwaters, especially during early mornings and winter season.
