Description
Around 70 km from Bangalore off of the Kanakapura road, lies the Rangaswamy betta or Bilikal bettakpura road is the Bilikal betta. Belonging to the forest reserve, the Hill is covered in shrub forest. Every year locals from the surrounding area climb this hill to celebrate a festival at the Ranganathaswamy temple at the top. The way they have been following throughout the years has turned into a standard trekking trail.
The trail takes you through the forest. The first half kilometer is comparatively even and easy. But as you move ahead, the forest grows denser throwing some steep slopes which makes the hike an enthralling one. This steep climbs and descends will definitely test your workout days, extensively. The even lands in between the trail let you rest and grasp the beautiful scenery in front of you. On summiting you find yourself in the vast flat field with the temple in the side. Different slopes in the Kanakapura range, including Kabbaladurga, Savandurga can all be seen from here. The night trek implies getting the dawn on the east, making it one major quiet minute. Still confused about where to go this weekend? Pick this!!!

05-Apr-2019From the top you can also see the Arthveda and Kaveri river. Since the trekking is done during the night so you will experience extra benefits of favourable weather condition. here are two ways of visiting bilikal Rangaswamy Betta which is in Kanakapura Bangalore Mysore highway and second is directly from kanakpura road. If luck favours, you will be able to see elephants and other wild animals. A trek guide helps a lot in trekking uphill during night time. As a whole It is just incredible trek.

27-Mar-2019Wow It was a unique experience, did night trekking for the first time and It felt amazing to go for such an adventurous trek with friends. Bilkal Ranganath Betta is much appreciated location having religious importance. It is a short trek and the difficulty level is medium. Excellent Adventure!! Trekking in this place is popular because of its night timing, moderate trail and the trekkers group. A guide is a must in the trek, care should be taken while hiking up the mountain

17-Mar-2019At night ,the weather remains cooler, So you can enjoy trekking. Bilikal Rangaswamy Betta lies in kanakapura range and it's an absolute adventure. You can explore very limited things at night, but during the day time you will get to see some wild animals too.

02-Mar-2019Night treks are the most sought after treks in India, people prefer going for such trek. When only trekking is concerned ,the night trekking is the best since you do not have to walk under the sun Bilikal Rangaswami trek is one such trek, always buzzed by trekkers. One of the best holiday destinations for trekking lovers near Bangalore

26-Feb-2019.Kanakapura range of mountains have interesting trekking trails, but a tour guide is a must for night adventure. Do not plug your earphones while trekking uphills. Most amazing trekking near Bangalore, easily accessible and memorable trip.
