Bangaloreans are indeed a privileged lot. In addition to being treated to fantastic weather all year round, Bangalore’s location lends itself ideal as a base for amazing road tripping. Burning a little rubber across the gorgeous countryside will get you to some of the most breathtaking wildlife, beach and hill destinations in India. So, be it a wild encounter in the depths of Mudumalai forest or an elaborate brunch amidst tea plantations in Nilgiri hills or an insight into Mysore’s rich cultural heritage, whatever rocks your boat; all you need to do is tank up, throw your rucksack in the boot and hit the road.
