This is reserved forest very close to Bangalore . Also the closest rock climbing area , boasting of a variety of granite formations for climbing . Wildlife sightings such as peacocks, hare and in the recent past, even elephants have been spotted here, as well as a lot of birdlife.
Thuralli is a small hillock off the kanakapura road. Its been a popular place for rock climbers, it definitely is good choice for mountain bike beginners. I do not know the exact kilometers we did, suspect it to be between 12 - 15 kms one way.
I went to Thuralli with my Friend Naren. Naren is an Electrical Contrctor At Bangalore, who is an Experienced Paraglider. Usually he flys at Nandi Hills. He moves to somewhere nearby Bangalore every weekend. And today it was to Thuralli. The team consisted of Naren, Chetan, Viney and Me Myself.
