Honnamana Kere Lake

Reviewed By shobasampath - Bengaluru, India

We reached Somwarpet around 4.30 pm which didn't give us much time to go sight seeing. Our hostess suggested that Honnamma kere was our only option. It's a lake amidst the Lovely greenery and hills and a Devi temple overlooking it. It's open till 8 pm and has enough lighting to enjoy the place. It was really beautiful and a tranquil place with only a few locals visiting the temple as it was Aashada Friday. The temple has its own history which was told to us by the priest. We just sat there gazing at the Beautiful and tranquil lake. Nothing much to do. It was a good place to see though.

Sharavati River

Reviewed By svragh

We stayed at the government jungle resort lodges bang opposite the sharavati river water front. The price is a bit steep but the facilities are excellent and the staff very helpful. There's absolute peace here, no mobile networks most of the time. There's an all pervading calmness. Apart from boating there are a few other water sports like kayaking speed boat swmimg etc. bird watching in the morning is very rewarding. The morning walk leads to a series of new islands. In one shallow island you can go walking deep inside coming out thoroughly refreshed. Sit in the water for a real fish spa. Schools of fish play around your feet and hands. A totally different experience for city dwellers. In the evening you can visit the world famous jog falls. A real relaxing holiday for a few days. The food served at the lodge is top drawer stuff. If you have the wherewithal go for it. Around Rs. 3800 per person per day.

Excellent destination for nature lovers - we went on a random weekday at about 5 pm amd were amazed with the bird life on show - to see flocks of egrets, painted storks, huge flocks of black ibis, rosy starlings and several kingfishers darting around the edge of the lake was AMAZING - Bangalore is great for wildlife and this is an amazing place to see it!
