Camping in Makalidurga

Known for its night trekking, Makalidurga has challenging terrain featuring huge boulders, granite hillocks and wild shrubs. Located just 60 km north of Bangalore, the hill peers over enchanting views of the countryside and the sunrise from its peak will leave you speechless at its beauty. 

Camping at Makalidurga gives you a chance to trek your way to the top and explore the ancient temple at its summit. The sage Markandeya Rishi is said to have performed penance here and the stone temple with its pristine structure that has stood the test of time, adds a delightful touch to the natural splendor of the hill. A weekend trip that can give you a dose of adventure, camping in Makalidurga involves pitching your tent in its rugged wilderness, spending your days exploring hidden paths around the hill and preparing grilled meals over the campfire. 

The best season to visit this lovely hill is from September-February, when the air is cool and crisp.
