Bangalore to Ramanagaram on bike: Chapter 1: Ramadevara Betta: Part 1: Region where Hindi movie Sholay was shot

3rd June 2010, 12:22 pm

Date of journey: 29/05/2010

Crew: Maneesh.

Route from Bangalore to Ramanagaram: Bangalore–(take Mysore Road)–12 km–>Kengeri–18 km–>Bidadi–20 km–>Ramanagaram

After an hour drive I reached Ramanagaram. I saw a board which read “Ramadevara Betta 3 km” and it pointed to the right side.

There were stairs which lead to the top of the hills:

From there I could see the neighboring hills:

At the top I found a beautiful Gulmohar (Delonix Regia) tree:
