Avanibetta Trip

We made this day trip to Avanibetta, to visit Ramalingeshwara Temple at the ground level and Sita Devi temple that is located at about 110 KM from Bangalore. About 25 KM after Kolar, and about 8 KM before Mulbagal, we take a right turn, to drive about 7 KM to reach Avani.

In the onward direction starting at about 7:15 am on 4Jan25, we took this route here after stopping 40 min., at Paakashala Hoskote at 8:30 am for breakfast, and the adjoining Kadamba Nursery for buying plants, and reached Avanibetta at 10:15 am. 

Completed visiting the Kalyani next to the temple and then the Shri Ramalingeshwara Temple itself by 11:15 am, and then started the trek to Bettada Melina Shri Seeta Devi Temple at 11:25 am, and reached the temple at the top by 12:35 pm after stopping at multiple viewing spots and temples and structures on the way up. Started at about 12:45 pm and reached ground at 1:30 pm.

On the return direction, we took this route after stopping at 1:50 pm at Woody's Dasarahalli, between Mulbagal and Kolar, for lunch and reached back by 4:45 pm.
