Question

I am new to Bangalore.. i like adventures.. tel me some thrilly and adventuroes forests near bangalore

Answer 1

Not quite a forest but this is nevertheless worth a trip.

Bannerghatta National Park

This park, 20km south of Bangalore, is home to Indian leopards, lions, tigers, and elephants. You can drive around on a zoo-safari where the animals are fenced in. The park also has a snake and crocodile farm. Open daily except Tues. You can get here by taking bus #365 (platform 15) at the City bus stand.

Ranganathittu Bird Sanctuary

This sanctuary, 4km southwest of Srirangapatnam, attracts a large number of migrating birds. At this place, the Kaveri River is wide and there are several islands, providing sanctuary for the birds. It is possible to take a boat ride around the islands and view the birds. Viewing is especially good in October and November. Besides birds, there are crocodiles. Open daily 9 am to 6 pm Admission Rs 100. The most convenient way to get here is by rickshaw from Srirangapatnam. From Mysore, you take bus #126.

Answer 2

Bannerghatta is the excellent place which matches your requirement. You would have an excellent opportunity to see Lions, Tiger, deer, Bear , crocodiles very close to your van .

Taking snaps of these animals very much close to you is again something which is really unforgottable.

Answer 3

You can also try contacting Trekking groups (just search for them on yahoo groups) there are lots of people who go rock climbing, river rafting etc on a regular basis so you could join them. There's a place at the bottom of Brigade Road that deals in adventure sports equipment and they could tell you more (sorry I don't know the name)

Answer 4

If you are interested in traking through the forest, I would like to suggest that dharmasthala is a nice place. you can get state transport bus, move overnight reach there in morning. There is facility to stay for some days also. Basically a religious place, surrounded by jungle area, mostly palms,

Also nearby is kuke subramanium, that also is nice to look deep. Both are in mangalore district.
