Overview

Sri Revanna Siddeshwara Betta is commonly called SRS Betta / SRS Hills by the locals. It consists of a massive Monolithic Stone surrounded by a beautiful hilly region and located at the scenic location of Ramanagara. SRS Hills is a popular hill among devotees and trekkers with its breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding hills and water bodies. Situated at an altitude of 3,066 feet, Sri Revanna Siddeshwara Betta is famed for its arduous rock climbing spots and the Shiva temple. There are 3 temples on the hill, Renukamba temple at the base, Bemeshwari Temple at midway, and Revana Siddeshwara temple at the top. This elegant cave temple of Lord Siddeshwara is snuggled on the notch of a monolithic stone hill and is surrounded by the trails of natural wonders.

TREK:

One needs to climb around 300 steps to reach the top from the base of the hill. The climbing was not difficult since steps were carved and covered with a sheet on the top with grills around. It will take 45 minutes to reach the hilltop. From the top, one can get the panoramic view of surrounding villages, a beautiful lake, and farms.

NOTE: As it is a holy place, one has to climb barefoot.

Janapada Loka is a cultural and folk art museum located in the Ramanagara district of Karnataka. It’s a unique destination dedicated to preserving and showcasing the rich folk traditions and rural heritage of Karnataka. The museum was inaugurated in 1994 by Dr. M. Channa Reddy, the then Governor of Karnataka. It was established by the Karnataka Janapada Academy. The museum houses a vast collection of folk art, artifacts, and everyday items used in rural Karnataka. These include traditional musical instruments, costumes, tools, and utensils, offering insights into the rural lifestyle and cultural practices.

  • The itinerary is fixed. No special requests to change itinerary/schedule are permitted. Do not give advice(s) to the Organizer.

  • Unexpected situations: It may happen we do not cover all the places mentioned in the itinerary because of unpredictable reasons like bad weather, landslides, wild animal presence, abrupt blocking of sites by the police/forest department, delay in travel because of an issue with our group itself, traffic conditions, etc. In most cases, if the time permits, the organizer(s) will take travelers to an alternative place. But in some cases, we may have to skip a place altogether.
  • The event will stand canceled if less than 8 travelers signed up for the trip/trek.
  • Travelers are expected to respect each other and help each other. Avoid discussing sensitive matters like sex, politics, and religion/caste/race.
