BR hills, Bellatha Resorvoir and Krishnakatte Dam

BR hills is a lovely place for a one day trip from Bangalore as 30 to 40 kms inside the reserve a drive in private vehicle is possible ( BR hills temple to Chamrajnagar road).. The trip can be combined with BR hills Temple, K gudi wilderness camp, Bellatha resorvoir and Krishnakatte dam...

There is also a forest department safari in BR hills where jeeps take passengers inside the forest limits... There are around 60 tigers in BR hills as per census but its little hard to spot tigers and only if you have luck.. Elephants also are spotted frequently in drier months..

The regular animals to see here are spotted deers, Barking deers and some birds species.. The road from BR hills to Kgudi is quite good and look out for wild species.. The bellatha resorvoir road is quite bad but can be managed with any car...
