Manchinabele Dam / Menchanabele Dam , Bangalore , Karnataka - A good Picnic spot near Mysore Road

Menchanbebe Dam Backwaters

Menchanbele Is an ideal spot for a one day outing from Bangalore. The major attractions include The dam itself. (Even thought the dam is not that big, it is beautiful ), and the surroundings. For those who love adventure there are many small hills to try their mountaineering capability. I have spend about a few hours climbing the rocks. Menchanbele is about 36 km from Bangalore by road and about 8 km from the Big Banyan Tree. Manchinabele Dam is situated in the midst of hills and forests at the foot of the Savan durga (The larges monolith of Asia).

The entire Menchan bele is a part of the Bangalore Rural District, where farming still constitute a major potion of the Economy. Most of the people here are villagers and During the dry season the dam water will level will go down and it will be very beautiful to See.
