Skandagiri Night Trek
1 Day and 1 Night
Located at a distance of approximately 70 KM from Bangalore, Skandagiri is the perfect weekend getaway from Bangalore for several reasons- its close proximity to the city, the scenic views and the picture-perfect sunrise from the peak and of course the exciting night trek opportunity it offers. Historically known as Kalwarbetta or Kalavara Durga, the mountain fortress of Skandagiri holds immense importance – it is said that this fortress was built by Tipu Sultan which has been left deserted since 1791 after he lost the Anglo-Mysore War. Since then, the fortress has been weathered away and now, nothing but the ruins remain. However, the beauty of the ancient Skandagiri Hills has increased over time.
