Hi,
Have any have traveled from Hyderabad to Mantralayam? If so what is the best route? I have checked in google maps and feel Kurnool to be better route, but after Kurnool I am bit confused.
Thank you.
We drove from Mantralayam to Hyderabad in 2014, we took the Raichur-Hyderabad route. The route was decent. In the Kurnool route, the road will be great till Kurnool, we have not driven between Kurnool and Mantralayam.
Nice posts.. we are planning from hyderabad to srisailam via yaganti,ahobilam can u suggest more visting tourist places
Depending on the number of days your trip is likely to be, you can visit Alampur, Belum Caves and Mahanadi also.
hi..nice blog ! like the info you have given. If you had to do one or two places from Hyderabad for a 2 day trip for someone from Mumbai ..even long drive being fine..what would be not to be missed? Interest would be in some offbeat experiential stay/nature/wildlife etc. Konaseema (pallevelli) /Nagarjunasagar dam area/ pocharam sanctuary medak area/ is what i am thinking ? Any suggestions would be helpful between this or something else.
Thanks for writing in. We’d suggest the following circuits from Hyderabad:
1. Srisailam-Nagarjuna Sagar, lovely drive through Srisailam forest, Mallelatheertham waterfalls, Jyothirlinga temple, Srisailam Tiger reserve, Nagarjuna Sagar Buddhist ruins etc, Telangana tourism stay options at Srisailam and Nagarjuna Sagar.
2. Ahobilam – Narasimha temples, great trekking options, 5 hours drive from Hyderabad, stay options at Ahobilam.
3. Bhadrachalam-Maredumilli Eco-tourism, Bhadrachalam temple, Maredumilli forest eco-tourism, scenic drive, stay options at Bhadrachalam and Maredumilli.
4. Belum Caves-Gandikota – One of the largest caves in India, historical fort, Penna river Gorge called the Grand Canyon of India, 360 kms from Hyderabad, Telangana Tourism resort at Gandikota.
5. Warangal-Ramappa temple-Lakhnavaram lake – historical temples, stay options at Warangal and Lakhnavaram Lake.
Considering that we have not had rains this year, most places may be a little dry but these places are good ones for a 2 day trip. You can look for more information on stay options on Telangana or AP tourism websites.
Hope this helps, feel free to email us at highwayonlyway@gmail.com if you need any other infomation. Happy travelling !
