Gali Banda Viewpoint
The car drives up close for the sunset, so there is hardly any walk.
Environmental Park
A small zoo and garden near the top. An hour is plenty.
Kalyani Tree
A giant old tree near the rooms. A quick stop for photos.
Gangotri Lake
A small lake on top. Walk around it in the morning.
Mallamma Temple
A small temple on the hill road. Stop on the way down.
Adventure Activities
The hill has offered activities such as zorbing, rappelling, rock climbing and zip lining through the state tourism department and private operators. Availability depends on the season and operators, so check on arrival, and always follow the safety instructions.
Rishi Valley
Near Madanapalle, Rishi Valley is a peaceful valley known for the Rishi Valley School founded by the philosopher J. Krishnamurti. The surrounding hills, old trees and bird life make it a calm stop, and the area is known for its birding. Visits to the school campus are subject to its own rules, so check before you go.
Gurramkonda Fort
About 45 kilometres from Horsley Hills, Gurramkonda has a hill fort with a history linked to the Golconda rulers, Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan. The Rangin Mahal, an ornate old building near the base, is a protected monument. It is a good half-day addition for history lovers.
Kaiwara
On the way from Bangalore, Kaiwara near Chintamani is associated with the saint-poet Kaiwara Sri Yogi Narayana Tatayya and holds the Amara Narayana temple and hill caves linked by local tradition to the Mahabharata. It is a pleasant detour on the way to or from Horsley Hills.

Pickup at your door

Through the toll
The car goes through Hoskote on the highway without stopping, unless you want coffee. The toll is paid on the way. You have fuel, breakfast and restrooms close by. The driver stops wherever you ask.
Short break
A quick stop for tea or fruit. The road after Chintamani is calm and pretty. Food is simple: idli, dosa and meals. A quick detour: Kaivara hill, 10 km off the road. Quick stop for tea, fuel and restrooms.
Border tax
At the check post the driver pays the Andhra Pradesh entry tax for the car. It takes about five minutes. Tea and snacks at the small hotels. You have tea and a washroom close by.
Lunch in town
Have lunch in Madanapalle before the climb, there are more places to eat here than on the hill. You find Andhra meals easily here. The big tomato market is in town. Quick stop for meals, fuel and restrooms.
Up to your room
A cab takes about 3 hours. The driver takes you right up to your guest house and stays nearby. Food here: a few stalls and the hilltop hotel. A quick detour: the viewpoint and the old Kalyani tree, on top.
