Top 7 Hill Stations I Visited from Bangalore within 300 KM

Tripoto

What could be better than spending the weekend in an awesome hill station. I love driving to hill, but i don't like to drive more than 300 km as the driving itself takes lots of time in that case and you will get less time to spend in the actual destination. The good thing is there are many beautiful hills near to Bangalore within 300 KM. Here is the list of 7 such hill stations which I have visited so far from Bangalore.

Horsley Hill (149 km from Bangalore)

Horsley Hill is a very small hill station in Andhra Pradesh. A great place to go to relax in the weekend. There are few view points, activity areas and a small zoo. There is hotel Haritha Hill Resort for staying. You can also go for one day trip. The view points are good and the views pleasure to the eyes. The road to the hill station is good except the stretch of few kilometers when I went there last year.
