Ambajidurga Fort – Tale of a lesser-known hill fort

In this blog I will take you all on a journey across beautiful grasslands, mighty rocks and another experience of a beautiful trek. Its weekend and my travel buddy asked me to join him and his enthusiastic trekkers for a half day trek to this beautiful Fort. Estimated time to reach this place from Bangalore was 1 hour 45 minutes along the Old Madras Road. We started off from Bangalore at around 7:00 am since we knew that the traffic on KR Puram side might delay our journey if we start late. So, we drove continuously and stopped on the outskirts for one breakfast break. Post that we drove on National Highway for some time, crossed Hoskote and finally had to take a left towards Chintamani Road. From here you can continue driving as per the directions of google map. And you will get to see amazing views of mighty rock formations and green fields along your drive. Once you take right on the Kailasagiri temple road, the road condition is not that great. So, you need to drive slowly. K
