Start early (around 4:30 AM) and drive to Nandi Hills to catch the spectacular sunrise at the Sunrise Viewpoint. After the sunrise, visit the historic Nandi Temple perched on the hill and then trek a short, scenic trail to Tipu’s Drop, the famous cliff edge offering panoramic vistas of the surrounding valleys.
Enjoy a leisurely nature walk down to Bhoganahalli Lake, a tranquil spot perfect for bird‑watching and a relaxed picnic lunch at the lakeside café. After lunch, explore the Summer Residence (also called the Summer Palace) built by the Mysore royalty, admiring its colonial architecture and landscaped gardens.
Return to the top of Nandi Hills for a romantic sunset dinner at the Nandi Hills Resort’s rooftop restaurant, where you can savor a multi‑cuisine menu with local specialties while watching the hills glow in amber light.
