Hi,
The weekend was amazing. I had gone to . And I have some pretty snaps which I will upload later.
Kyathadevera Gudi is situated in Biligiri Ranganna Hills. (For cool people its K-Gudi and B-R-Hills.) Its situated at 3300 feet from the sealevel. We had booked tented cottages there a week before. Its an almost ideal weekend-gateaway if you are looking for peace, quiet and lots of fresh air.
We left at 6 in the morning from Bangalore and reached Mysore at 9 am. The road is good and its gonna get better. They are in process of building a 4 lane high way of which only 2 lanes are open for use now. From Mysore just follow the route given on the broucher and there are helpful boards that direct you to the jungle resort. The road was small after Mysore but it was very scenic with green-yellow crop fields all around. If you are not sure of the road just ask for "Chamraj Nagar" and people will direct you. When you reach the Ghat Section, you know you are almost there.
We reached there at 12:30 in the noon. It was cool and the tents gave a feeling that was a perfect combination of adventure and luxury. It was clean and neat. The staff was efficient and helpful.
We took two jeep safaris into the jungle. The jungle there is amazing. I have been to Bandipur and Banerghatta but this jungle stood apart. It was untamed and wild. I wasnt expecting to sight any animals but the jeep driver said there are tigers and leopards in the jungle. We dint see any of them. But just roaming in the jungle made it worthwhile for me. We saw deers and wild boars and bisons.
All-n-all it was a good trip and I would go there again.
Yours Sinerely,
