About Shivaganga Hills in Bangalore
Shivaganga hills, situated at about 56 km from Bangalore, is a combination of temples and scenic beauty that makes it both a pilgrimage as well as an adventure spot. From a distance, the hillock looks like a 'Shiva Linga' a symbolisation of Lord Shiva.
There are many water spots on the way to the top of the hill and people there believe the water is of the sacred river Ganga. As a result of this, the hillock gained its name as Shivaganga. The sculptured marvel of 'Nandi'- the bull is a major attraction of the place and attracts a lot of visitors from different parts of the state. The place also known for its spiritual attractions is also known as Dakshina Kashi or Kashi of South India because of the numerous temples situated here like Gangadhareshwara temple, Patala Gange, Olakala Teertha, Nandi Statue, etc. The beautiful hills also attract a lot of adventure sports enthusiasts providing them opportunities of trekking and rock climbing. All in all, it is a popular getaway for travelers with both religious and adventurous inclinations.
The trek is suitable for beginners with just an ascent of 800 meters, with the tougher part of terk in the end with the trail getting steeper and narrower. The trek is also well marked with man made steps, which makes it suitable for amateurs. The panoramic view from the top is mesmerising. On reaching the top of the hill, visitors can see two sculptures of Nandi (Bull- vehicle of Shiva) are carved out of a monolithic stone, placed on the two remote tips of the hills.
Winter season is the best time to visit Shivaganga i.e. from October to February
Shivaganga hills is an ultimate destination for those looking forward to having a religious as well as a daring trip in the vicinity of Bangalore. The place is also ideal for a short weekend getaway from Bangalore. Shivaganga hills is usually preferred for one day trips.

Trip to Tamil Nadu
I have given rating 9 instead of 10 because there is always a scope for improvement. My trip was from Bangalore - Ooty and Coonnor. First of all, I would like to call out few names here who where extremely helpful and very friendly through out the TRIP : 1. Karthik- I would say he was the show stopper for this trip because he was continuously in touch with me from the time I started to enquire about the trip till I came back from the trip just to check if everything was alright Kudos to him. 2. Roopa: She was the one who explained me clearly to choose the correct Travel agency by reading all the comments and ratings because I got cheapest travel agencies in terms of money but when I saw the ratings I thought I should go with TRAVEL TRIANGLE Kudos to her she deserves a pat on her back and definitely a Hike in the salary this goes to both Karthik and Roopa because they are the Asset to company they work for . 3, Mr. Imran - The Cab driver, I would feel bad if have to call him a cab driver because he was more like a family member to me through out the trip, my one year old son became closer to him within a span of a time because he was so friendly and polite and very good at driving. I will definitely choose Travel Triangle for all the future trips for sure. There were some flaws as well but that was not under any body's control so I would just leave that aside because I will cherish the Memory through out my life as this was our first trip with my son and he enjoyed the trip more than any body else, it was mainly planned for him so my trip was 100% successful. Thanks to Travel Triangle and all the people who where involved for planning a wonderful trip for my family. One friendly advice to who so ever reads this review please do not always think about Money because there are more important things to think about when you plan for a trip which is you safe Journey the place where you stay. First trip with my one year old son he enjoyed it a lot more of a family time that will be the best memory.Trip to Bangalore
Karnataka trip (Bangalore-Mysore-Ooty) had gives us lot of energy , peace of mind and refreshing our soul. Its very nice experience with this trip. Good Points 1. Cab driver was Cooperative and helpful person. 2. Cab driver suggest good spots in this journey. 3. Hotel Grand vanam was good. 4. Ooty and Mysore spots are good for tourist in June month. 5. overall experience was nice. Bad Points 1. Corporate host destination didn't share tour plan with cab driver. 2. Hotel The Baron in Ooty gives bad service. Temperature of Ooty was cold so we need hot water for bath, but hotel was unable to provide us hot water 24x7 . My hotel room was placed above kitchen cum dining hall so lot of noise (exhaust fan ) were came to room . Its irritating experience. 3. Trip was not completed as per plan . lot of changes we made while travelling. 4. All tourist spots were closed in Ooty in between 5.30pm to 6.30pm . Travel triangle should intimate this type of information with travelers.Trip to Tamil Nadu
My trip was for mysore and ooty ( pickup and drop @ Bangalore ) not so great experience. Plus points:: > Good hotels and good budget. > Early morning pickup from airport as requested. > Cab Driver for mysore and mysore sightseeing. Minus points:: > We don't want to visit tea factory,rose garden but local agent was forcing me to visit these places, nothing was on plan for ooty trip, i want to visit avalanche lake in ooty but driver/agent was not ready to go ( though we get 1000 km per day , these people only go for city sightseeing ) > Local travel agent of corp-orates host destination was very bad, the day we left from Ooty to Bangalore airport , though we have reached before 9PM @ Airport, agent asking driver to collect extra 1500 Rs from us. > Ooty driver was asking for tolltaxes charges, parking charges,highway charges ( though it was included in my package ). > i also paid Bangalore airport parking charges . Overall poor experience , will think twice if i ever want to go with corporate host destination agents.Trip to Tamil Nadu
Ooty hotel fabulous.. Bangalore hotel was average.. The driver was excellent and Cooaparetive. But the cab is small.. Over all a great experience in Tamilnadu and credit goes to VFMTrip to Bangalore
Our trip was good. I will defiantly refer my friends about your service. We just straggled from the Bangalore railway station for pickup only. We reached Bangalore at Morning 6.45,But driver picked up us at 10.45 a.m. After that all is good. The travel triangle representative Shefali Maurya gave a good response and arranged for the cab. Then the cab driver Mr. Mahasboob is very kind. Nice guidance from him and helped us to plan the sightseeing very well. We felt the room was very nice and clean especially Suhashini palace in Mysore .And Santhi Castle International in Coorg also good but very for away from the city.Trip to Bangalore
Best co ordination and customisation of trip. Hotels are not match with the standard as expected. Bangalore, Iskon temple, bull temple , museums etc. The zoo and Lal Bagh were under maintenance and it was wastage.of.timeTrip to Tamil Nadu
Except for the hotel at bangalore, everything was great.... especially the cooperation received from the driver Prabhakar Naidu.Trip to Maldives
There was a communication gap between Adaaran Island and youngistan team. we landed to male from Bangalore when we arrived to male the reservation team at counter said that the youngistan traveler didn't confirm the booking so Island team made us to wait for 2 hours then I called Youngistan team and but no response from Ashu and office number but later got it booking confirmed from other person. irresponsible people in the Youngistan team. Please try to improve the service. Adaaran Select meeduparan Island is awesome place and worth staying in the beach villa. great trip!Trip to Maldives

It was a trip of 5 days to Munnar, Thekkady and Allepy. The driver (Eldho Thomas from Pepper Kerala Travels) was nice and friendly person. His driving skills and knowledge on site seeing places helped us to cover most of the places. Thanks Eldho. The tea plantations at Munnar was the best part of whole trip. It was a pleasant weather there. Elephant ride in thakkedy was awesome. Houseboat in allepy was good and the crew team was very friendly. Worst part of the entire trip is journey from Bangalore to Munnar. Bus suppose to board @10:30pm but bus came @1:30am because of which we missed half a day trip.

No. the attraction does not have any entry fee. But tourists may have to pay some amount as parking fees if they visit the place in their own vehicle.
The nearest domestic airport is the Kempegowda International Airport, Bangalore which is about 74 kilometres away. From there it is a 2 hours drive to Shivaganga hills.
Winter season is the best time to visit Shivaganga i.e. from October to February as the beauty of the hillock is certainly enhanced during this period!
