Kaurava Kunda Betta Sunrise Trek with Isha Foundation

🏞️ Introduction

The Kaurava Kunda Betta Sunrise Trek is one of the most unique treks near Bangalore, combining spiritual guidance from Isha Foundation with the thrill of a night hike. Just 70 km from Bangalore in Chikkaballapur, the trek offers a perfect blend of adventure, mythology, and meditation.

  • Panoramic views of Nandi Hills, Skandagiri, and surrounding valleys
  • A beginner-friendly trail that’s safe yet adventurous
