Top of the Basavan Betta Mountain Kanakapura Range


Having halted night at Soligere Forest Guest House, it was lush green all over with a panchromatic view of vast stretch of Kaveri River. While cruising through coppice shoots of old salvaged teak trees infested with variety of flowering shrubs make scene luscious. Butea monosperma galore around ponds. Hefty Tamarind & Neem Trees could be seen amid Anogeissus & Zizyphus . Ground floor grasses were plenty. I followed one old coupe road which was treked by Sambhar & Elephants too.
