Last Sunday (Feb 03, 2008) we planned to travel towards Siddara Betta.
It was my first bike riding over 190+Kms in a day and enjoyed to the fullest.
Siddara Betta is about 95+Kms from Bangalore. We drove via
(6.15AM) Tumkur Road > Dabaspet (7.30AM) > Koratagere > Siddara Betta (9.15AM)
It was great to climb the Rocky Hill, I was getting exhausted too fast and
managed to reach the top :). There is a small cave on the hill with a temple inside,
lot of visitors end up there.
We looked at another passage inside the cave and headed towards entering it. We had
not carried the Torch and the passage was just without light. A person there informed it is very dark inside and chances are high you getting lost inside!
Deciding to explore the passage we stepped in and used our camera as source of light. We had to perform a frog walk for about 15+ steps and found welcome rays of sun. We were really excited inside this CAVE. It was pretty chill over the place though the sun had reach on top our head at that time.
Our fellow partner found one more passage and we started to move inside it. It was very small, the rocks were quite slippery and sharp. We manage to reach almost to the end of that cave.
We were really excited to be at this place and had some quick snacks. Its really a pleasant place for mediation.
Heading out of the caves (we could feel the heat of sun!) we looked around and decided to move further ahead on the hill. After few minutes we realized its going to never end walking up the hill as its pretty vast and we were running out of main resource (WATER) and Sun rays were becoming very sharp. We got down the hill drove back to home.
Road from Bangalore to Dabaspet is awesome. Construction work is in progress from Dabaspet to Siddara Betta, the tar & mud roads alternate each other.
Sorry guys could cover lot of funny instances in this post (falling short off time)!

Freedom is given to you by trust,
Overusing it just means to lower the trust. |
