adventure places near Bangalore.
As it is a lesser-known place, you will experience peace and tranquillity while having fun amidst the greenery of Coorg, the Scotland of India.
The 15 kilometers of trek trail of Nishani Motte, located in the Tala Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary, almost 300 km from Bangalore, is filled with adventure. You may face
a mild difficulty level in hiking while walking through some steep path towards top.
Leopards, elephants, and other exotic wildlife can be spotted in the dense forests of Coorg. You can ensure the adrenaline surge in your body while enjoying the campfire,
nature gazing, wildlife photography, and the most nerve-tickling river-rafting activity in the Cauvery River.
