Cycling/Biking
3.5 /5

Beaulah Sahana says

We biked for an hour and a half to Nandi's Hangout. We preferred starting late in the evening since we were planning on a wide-awake night.

Hangout @ Nandi

Beaulah Sahana says

Hangout at Nandi is a laid back place to crash when you are quite clueless about your schedule.

Tribal Cafe

Beaulah Sahana says

Tribal Cafe is about 20 mins before Nandi. We got to the cafe at around 4:30 AM, to hang out a little before heading to watch the sunrise. The Cafe is a wonderful spot during the day as it faces one of Nandi's biggest hills and is surrounded by smaller terrains. This is a 24-hour-cafe.

Biked to Watch the Sunrise

Beaulah Sahana says

We rode to the sunrise point just in time for the mesmerising view. The gates to Nandi Hills open after 6:00 AM. Ensure to wear your helmet and carry your license for an uninterrupted ride.

Savour Some Local Food

Beaulah Sahana says

The food atop Nandi Hills is quite good. You could also hoard some snacks from the stores there. However, beware of monkeys. There are quite a few of them.

3.5 /5

If you're looking for some vintage photography at Nandi, this place is great! The ruins are just beautiful.

Tipu's Drop
3.5 /5

Time Spent: 1-2 hrs

Beaulah Sahana says

Trek up to Tipu's Drop for a relaxing view. This point overlooks all of Nandi's hills. It is a treat in itself! Be careful of salamanders, though.

The Ride Back

Beaulah Sahana says

Biking back was a beautiful ride too! We came across such gorgeous flower fields.
