About This Experience
Located At A Distance Of Approximately 70 Km From Bangalore, Skandagiri Is The Perfect Sunrise Trek For A Weekend Getaway From Bangalore For Several Reasons- Its Close Proximity To The City, The Scenic Views And Of Course, The Picture-Perfect Sunrise From The Peak. 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. And With More And More Restrictions Being Placed On Night Treks Across The State, The Skandagiri Trek Is One Of The Very Few Sunrise Treks Remaining That One Can Do Legally.
