Simhachalam

Trekking in Vizag

Having personally been on this route, I can say that the views that the place has to offer are some of the best that Vizag has. With some of the most beautiful hills on your left when going to the Simhachalam temple, this route has a beauty of its own. Expert tip: On the way to Simhachalam, you see a lake right next to the golf club. I had a really good time there. You should go check it out too!

Kailasagiri

Located well within the city, I would say Kailasagiri is one of the most well-developed Bavikonda trek routes in Vizag. You can either drive to the top of the hill and have a trek near the temple, or you could walk the entire way if you’re up for it. You could also take the steps to the top if you’re feeling too adventurous. And don’t forget to take the ropeway … that thing is fun!

Katiki Waterfalls

Getting to Katiki waterfalls itself is a task. You’d have to hire a jeep for around fifteen kilometres, following which he drops you off at a point beyond which no vehicles can pass. You then trek upwards, along a path that can get dangerously slippery and narrow at times. You’re rewarded by a waterfall gushing out some of the coldest water you ever come across.
