Trekking
My first trekking adventure was with the 'Erehwon' group, back in 1994, when we spent a three day survival camp in Antharagange.
 
About Antharagange
Anthargange is a hill range with huge volcanic rocks and boulders scattered all over. This place is around seventy kilometers from Bangalore. Thorny shrubs cover the hill, while there is dense plantation forest at the base. Flight of steps, halfway the hill leads to an ancient temple. The spring at this temple is claimed to wash off your sins. The forty-five minutes hill climbing will keep you panting for breath and opens up for an extensive and beautiful green plateau on the top. Anthargange is an ideal location for light trek, rock climbing and camping. Big and small boulders have helped to form cave like formations offering exhilarating network of cave exploration activity
Location: 70 Kms from Bangalore from Bangalore - on Old Madras Road


 Since then I have have enjoyed trekking rocky terrain.
