|
| Being one
among the Nine Durgas (Forts) fort atop Channarayana Durga
hill is the center of attraction. The village at the foothill
is not too big either. |
|
There are few
temples old structures inside the fort. Though most
of the place is in ruins without any care, the most
of the place seems intact and still looks good.

| The forest around
Channarayana Durga and other places like Madhugiri,
Devarayana Durga are
habitat for the Yellow Throated Bulbul. There is plenty
of other wildlife as well. |

| These places
are mostly not crowded so one has to arrange for her/his
food and tentage. Most important Water is not available
in plenty here. Villagers are kind enough to guide you
to the place once you reach the village at the foothill. |
