| Day-1/Step-1 | 9.00 AM to 11.00 AM | Travel to Pearl valley |
| Anekal is a town around 40Kms from Bangalore and Pearly Valley is situated at around 5kms from Anekal, this beautiful place in the lap of nature remains green throughout the year. But during rainy season, its worth a visit. You can go anytime during the day, but my suggestion is to start early as the morning fresh air feeling is just wonderful, but the main reason why I want you guys to go early is to avoid afternoon and evening rush. The route to this place is quite straight: Bangalore ->Attibele->Anekal->pearl valley. Just put the maps and it will take you straight to this place. The route via Attibele is quite good. There are a lot of fields with flower specially marigold flowers. Which looked just wonderful. Remember that after you have crossed Anekal town, after around 4Kms there is a right turn which you need to take. This turn is just before a petrol pump. If you miss this turn then google will reroute to another option which will be 6Kms more. So do not miss this turn. There is no marking. So you have to keep a watch on the map and odometer. After you take right you have to cross couple of villages. There is lots of greenery around. Basically its a hilly area. You have to travel around 1.5kms on this road and you will reach KSTDC Maurya hotel. In front of hotel there is a lake. You have to park your car in the hotel parking. You need to pay a toll of Rs30 before entering this area and then a parking fee of Rs20 at the KSTDC hotel. |

| Day-1/Step-2 | 11.00 AM to 2.00 PM | Explore Pearl valley |
| Once you have parked the car, you have to take the steps down to reach to the spot. These steps are not much. Approx 250 steps. While going down is fine, climbing up can be a challenge. Specifically on sunny days. Once you reach down, you will see this cute little waterfall and also a small shiva temple, which tough very small is a old one. One thing to note is that there are a lot of monkeys around and they snatch any food items and many times bag you are carrying. So be a bit careful. Do not carry any food items down on the steps. You can easily spend around 2 to 3 hours down and then climb back up. There is nothing much to do when you are down near the fountain. You can put your feet in water and relax. Pay visit to Lord Shiva and then climb back. |
