About Devarayanadurga in Bangalore

Devarayanadurga is a hill town situated amidst picturesque locality near Tumkur at a distance of 72 km from Bangalore. Devarayanadurga Hills is home to the temples of Yoga Narasimha & Bhoga Narasimha. The Bhoga Narasimha temple is located at the foothills while the Yoga Narasimha shrine is located at the top of the hill. These Devarayanadurga temples are among the popular tourist places near Bangalore. Another famous temple in the area is the Mahalakshmi Temple at Goravanahalli.

When translated, Devarayanadurga means Fort of the God. It got the name Devarayanadurga after the Mysore ruler Chikka Devaraja Wodeyar captured it on one of his victorious feats. This is a great weekend pilgrimage spot and a getaway for a quick retreat or picnic, to escape from the grind of the daily hustle and bustle of city life.

Devarayanadurga Trek

This hill spot is also a trekker’s paradise, due to the fact that it has numerous hillocks surrounding it. Motorable road is available till the hilltop. Many trekkers go for a Devarayanadurga trek from the Bhoga Narasimha temple at the foothill. Devarayanadurga state forest is declared as a protective reserved forest by the forest department of Government of Karnataka. The trek is really easy and can be enjoyed by families of all age groups. On the Devarayanadurga trek, people can enjoy beautiful greenery and spot plenty of birdlife.

Devarayanadurga, Tumkur is steeped in mythological importance. It is said that Lord Brahma has performed penance for many years in the name of Lord Vishnu. Impressed by his penance, Lord Vishnu has incarnated himself as Lord Narasimha here.

Famous for the natural water spring called Namada Chilume in Devarayanadurga is considered as the source of Jayamangali River. There are two other springs known as Ramatirtha and Dhanushtirtha. There is a large cave nearby with figures of Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana. The car festival of Sri Bhoga Narasimha Swamy is held during the month of March/April here.

Srujanab's 4 days trip to Bangalore

We have been to Ooty, Kodaikanal and Palani on a family trip The itinerary was perfectly scheduled by Mr. Rahul Singh from travel triangle. The support from Rahul was fantastic. He need to be rewarded for his tremendous support.   We visited all the places in the itinerary as per plan and we have enjoyed a lot. The 4 stared hotels picked up on the team are imaginary They gave us the best suites.   There were variety of food options. The breathtaking landscapes and pleasant weather were definitely the highlights of the trip The local markets sell fresh produce, homemade chocolates, and souvenirs   Only thing is they need to have supportive drivers and English speaking people.

Sarvendra's 3 days trip to Bangalore

Planner is just a middle person working with Hotels and travelers. Though they claim to have control over everything it's not the case. Better to go with a local agent who is connected and knows things.

Ankita's 5 days trip to Bangalore

The tour was very well planned. All the hotels were good. The bangalore hotel, Treebo akshaya was spacious however they do not provide dinner and breakfast was too poor. Mysuru hotel, Le Ruchi prince was excellent. Buffet dinner was superb, had multiple veg and non veg varieties. Rooms were so classy and the staff was so helpful. Ooty hotel, Delightzz inn was the best best. Location, staff, food quality, rooms, Ambiance, staff everything was outstanding. Best part of the trip was when we travelled all the way from Mysuru to Ooty and the hotel is at the top of the hill. Literally at the end of the hill and when we entered that was the best best part.
