Betta

Calling to be explored

While trekking on the Hallimala-Tharemara hills by the Ramanagara-Magadi Highway, I observed another cluster of hills on the other side of River Arkavathi. Curiosity made me cross the small Ram-Setu bridge. I noticed the entrance of an old fort with broken walls. As it was getting dark, I decided to dig into the history of this old fort and come back.

The battlefields of Suragiri Durga

Standing near the left door of a crowded coach on the passenger train from Bengaluru to Tumakuru, I was enjoying the countryside views. As the train was moving slowly near the Dabaspete railway station, I observed a hill very close to the railway tracks, with huge boulders resting precariously at its peak. My curiosity spurred me to travel to Dabaspete station the very next weekend.
