Get up early and head to Ramanagara, known for its granite hills and popular for rock climbing. Here, you can also experience ziplining, rappelling, and kayaking. If you're not interested in adventure activities, then you can visit the Silk Cocoon Market or Ramadevara Betta Vulture Sanctuary.
Conquer your fear of heights and climb the second-largest monolith hill in Asia. Savandurga is a popular destination for trekking, rock climbing, and rappelling. Once you reach the top, enjoy the panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. If you have time, visit Thippagondanahalli Reservoir and Manchanabele Dam for some watersports.
Wake up early and drive to Nandi Hills, where the Chola temples of the 9th century are located. If you're lucky, you might spot some wildlife such as the Malabar Giant Squirrel, great horned owl, or crested serpent eagle. Trek up to the hill to watch the sunrise and enjoy the cool mountain breeze. If you have time, visit the Bhoga Nandeeshwara Temple, which dates back to the 9th century AD.
If you have more time, you can add a day trip to Coorg for trekking, river rafting, and camping. You can also visit the Bannerghatta Biological Park and Wildlife Sanctuary for a wildlife safari and a visit to the butterfly garden. If you have less time, you can skip the Ramanagara and Manchanabele Dam and opt for a day trip to Nandi Hills instead.
