I Was Here: Achchalu Betta

Achchalu Betta

When you travel south of Bangalore on Kanakapura road for 40 odd kilometers, you get to see plenty of small hillocks scattered all over. I went on a day trip way back in 2007 to one such hillock which is around 15 KMs after Kanakapura. Achchalu Betta, is right next to a small village of the same name.

There are many more such hillocks which I’m yet to visit. To name a few are Kabbal Durga on kanakapura road, Hemagiri betta & Kumbhi betta near Huliyur durga, Huttari durga & Kalya betta near Magadi, Ramadevara betta & Nijagal betta on Tumkur road, Kunti betta near Pandavapura – and the list goes on and on and on… :)

Photos from The Lake district

During the road trip last April; I spent a day and half driving around Lake District, stopping now and then to enjoy the nature. As the name says, the place is full of lakes. We passed numerous lakes, Lake Windermere and Lake Ullswater being larger ones.
