About the Place:
Kaurava Kunda or Kavaranahalli also known as Harihara Betta is a beautiful, less-known trekking destination around 70 km from Bangalore. The Twin Hills stand tall opposite to Isha Foundation, named after the Pandavas and the Kauravas from Maha Bharatha - the greatest epic of India. Passing through the rocky surface we also wall on the grassy hilltop with an altitude of 250 meters, this hill has mesmerizing views around the corner.Â
This place is best visited during the Winter months. During December, you can feel the clouds beneath you, similar to Skandagiri or Nandi Hills in the vicinity. The hill is away from the hustle and bustle of the city, being less known to travelers, this place still holds tranquility, unlike other popular places these days around Bangalore.Â
The Trail starts from Hariharapura Village and some sandy steps lead you to the Shiva Temple midway up the Hill It's an easy trek. Since the climb is not too steep, the trek can be a pleasant experience even for a beginner.
