Places to visit near Bangalore

This is my second visit to Bangalore with my work colleagues and on our first trip we saw most of the popular places in Bangalore, this time we would like to see places around Bangalore. We will have 4 days spare from our work. For the time being we just need a list of places and the rest we will discuss and decide together.

 

Here is a list of places near Bangalore which you can visit:
Nanda Hills
Dodda Alada Mara
Ramanagaram
Shivanasamudra Falls (most recommended)
Lepakshi

 

Few more suggestions -

1. Mekedatu & Sangama (Riverbed, Coracle Ride, Trekking)
2. Ranganathittu & Kukkere Belur (Nature, Birds, Crocs)
3. Kunti Betta (Night trekking, campfire)

As Shiv has already pointed out, Shivanasamudra is a must visit. It's spectacular. Here's a travelogue to Shivanasamudra Falls.

Deb
