Create an itinerary including Nandi Hills
Take a trip up to Nandi Hills and explore the range of attractions old and new, man-made and natural that the hill station offers. The group of surrounding hills, easily reachable by road, stand at an average elevation of 1,478 m (4,851 ft) and offer a wealth of walking routes and unimpeded vistas. Tour the number of scenically positioned temples among them, and take in the historical sites, including the main fortress and its "Tipu Drop"--a 600 m (1,968 ft) cliff that Tipu Sultan would have his enemies thrown from. Plan your visit to Nandi Hills and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Chikkaballapur holiday planner.

    We visited on a weekend in the afternoon, around 1 pm. We got a place to park our car and then boarded the bus that takes you to the top of the hills. The view in the afternoon is not so bad...

    It's quite crowded best time to go is on weekdays. You can go there for 1-2 hours after that you'll get bored.

    Tips: 1) We were looking for a hill station something that was close to Bangalore, so we could go out in the morning and then come back same day, then this is the best place we could think of. 2...

    Perfect place to enjoy with friends and family If you are planning to travel at week end plan early morning, because of traffic it will delay more some time you will miss out sun rise . Awesome view of cloud ☁️ and some time you can feel cloud closer. Highly recommended when you visit to Karnataka or Bengaluru highly recommended two wheeler to travel to this place
  • By Gaurav Singh

    Great place but due to traffic, we missed the sunrise. We started at 4am from Bangalore and reached the Nandi Hills parking lot around 9am :(
  • By Harleen Maggon
    Lovers spot with Spectacular views from the cliff side skywalk. Best time to go will be early morning or evening sunset. Not far from the city, and do not miss the hillside walk. This place can be kept clean by authorities and visitors need to stop writing on walls, trees, literally everywhere.
  • By Nisha Kaushik
    Worth to visit once! I can go again to this place! Sunrise is just magnificent from this place! You have to purchase ticket for the entry! After parking , you have to walk for 10-15 mins to reach the top! Try to reach before 6 am to not miss the sunrise!!!😘 This place has scenic views and serene vibes! Be aware of monkeys, they can take away your eatables!
