From this point, about 3.5 kilometres downstream, the river Kaveri flows through a deep and narrow gorge. Mekedatu means 'goat's leap' in Kannada. It is said that a goat being chased by a tiger made a desperate attempt to save its life by leaping from one side of the gorge and managed to cross over the raging river below, whereas the tiger did not attempt to replicate this feat and abandoned the chase. At Mekedaatu, the Kaveri runs through a deep, narrow ravine of hard granite rock. More than 150 meters wide at the confluence (at Sangama), the river flows through the hardly 10 meters gorge at Mekedatu. This place is en route to Mekedatu. Only a few people visit this place, and most go by bus. If people go on foot from Sangama, this place wouldn't be that hard to spot. Here, water is less pleasant than in a place, thus making it much safer. The best time to visit this place is during the monsoon season. The vegetation around the hills is at its greenest and is a real treat to the eye. There will be less water in the summer, and visitors can easily walk along the river. In the rainy season, there will be more water with heavy flow. Both seasons are enjoyable differently.

Activity Location: Bidarakatte Hill, BangaloreStart time: 06:00 AMEnd time: 07:00 PMTrek Distance: 5 kmBidarakatte Height: 4,022 ft.Trek Difficulty: ModerateAbout Bidarakatte Day Trek:Close to the Savanadurga trek is the Bidarakatte Trek, which starts from the Kempegowda tree park and, following an incline, reaches the top of the hill at Doddarebylu. Along the path, one can enjoy the vegetation, mainly small trees to stunted growth, mainly bushy and interspersed with rocks. Among many myriad life forms keeping company with the trekker is the Rock Agama, and its many hues depend on the season, whether it is the breeding season or not. Breeding season indicates vivid colours. The monsoon is an amazing time to do this trek, with the greenery dominating the landscape, and for a while, the rocks take the back stage. Encountering butterflies and beetles is a way of life on the trek trail. What makes this trek more interesting is the presence of a historic old Fort, and the reminisces of the old walled city in its precincts. The aura is heightened more with an old temple along the trail. Interesting birds like the Endangered Yellow Throated Bulbul, the Sirkeer Malkoha, and many more birds make it an interesting bird trail.This Package Includes:TransportationBreakfastLunchPermission ChargesTrekkingWater Activities (Swimming & Kayaking)Professional GuideTrending packages: Channarayana Durga Trek | Gudibande Fort Trek | Nandi Hills Trek | Madhugiri Trek | Bananthimari Betta Trek
