Gopinatham Mystery Trails Jungle Lodges, Sivasamudram, Trip

Stopped for a night at Shivanasamudra, staying at  KSTDC's Hotel Mayura Bharachukki, again, and made this two nights and two days trip to stay at Gopinatham Mystery Trails Jungle Lodges. 

In the onward direction we took this route here around 3:15pm on 10Jan25 Fri., via Mysore Expressway, stopping at the New Maddur Tiffanys, to reach Shivanasamudra, after stopping at two very old temples, Madhyaranga Shri Ranganathaswamy Temple, and Shri Prasanna Meenakshi & Someshwara Temple, just a 2KM before the hotel. On the next morning around 11 am we took the route here via Kollegala and MM Hills (quite a few hairpin bends) to reach Gopinatham Mystery Trails, Jungle Lodges Resort at about 2:15pm. And while returning, we took this route here starting at about 10:30 am on 13Jan25 Mon., via Mettur, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri Byepass, and Hosur, to reach Bangalore at about 4:15 pm, after stopping for lunch at Sai Sangeet (Palayampudur before Dharmapuri) for lunch at about 1pm.

We had the opportunity to click a lot of pictures of Birds, Butterflies, Flowers, Fruits, Animals, Insects, Nature, and so on, throughout our trip, at the Hotel also, and at all the spots we visited.
