My Travel Tales

Kuntala waterfalls is one of the best and highest waterfalls in Andhra Pradesh. I planned to visit this waterfall so many times from the past three years, but never get a chance. As part of our one day trip to sahastrakund waterfall, we included kuntala also to the list. I should thank my friend Soorya Prakash for organizing such a beautiful one day trip to kuntala and sahastrakund waterfalls.

After browsing so many pictures and reading so many stories about gandikota, I planned for visit Gandikota on September 21,2013.

Gandikota is also known as "Indian Grand Canyon" because of the gorge present near the gandikota fort. In this post, I will provide all the information required for visiting Gandikota.

In this post I'm going to give all the required information for the people who are traveling to Hyderabad for the first time.

Location:            Maredumilli is located at a distance of 85km from Rajamundry(Andhra Pradesh) on the Bhadrachalam road. Maredumilli forest comes under the Alluri sitaramaraju forest area. How to reach maredumilli??

                                         Many times while passing through bhuvanagiri, i used to think that it is very difficult to reach top of the bhuvanagiri fort, as the mountain is very steep and never though that one day i will be reaching the top, trekking on those steep mountain. I should thank Soorya Prakash, who is friend of mine from many years and Hyderabad Trekking Club for organizing a memorable sunrise trek to Bhongiri fort.
