My 1st Trekking at Nagalapuram Hills, Andhra Pradesh


My 1st Trekking

DATE: December 25, 2011

ROUTE: Ramapuram, Chennai – Porur – Poonamalle – Thiruvallur – Utthukottai – Nagalapuram – Aaree and Back

PLACE: Nagalapuram Hills, Andhra Pradesh, India

Anbu Mani and  I were discussed two days before about Nagalapuram trekking. If we are free at weekend. We will go to Nagalapuram, i.e., our plan.

On December 24, Saturday night we both confirmed the Nagalapuram trekking plan.

On December 25, Sunday, I woke up at 3:30 am and was ready for trekking and rode to Anbu’s Home at Ramapuram and from there, then we have travelled to Nagalapuram by his Bike [up and down - 180 km].

Morning Weather was very chill and cool, we were had frozen.

Anbu was going to this place the second time,  it’s the first trekking to me, with no idea (about route or area). So, I have followed Anbu.

We reached Uttukottai around 7 am and had breakfast and waited for Chennai Trekking Club Members, but if they went to another place or took another route. So we continued our travelling.



We reached Aaree and we walked from Aaree village to Hills 3~3.5 km.

At the entrance, there is a lake, filled with water (winter season that’s why lake otherwise only half or a quarter of its capacity were filled, nice view), then we walked toward forest. It was very beautifully and very peacefully…

          Anbu told me about his previous trekking experience and singing (shouting J) song, make a noise!!!!!!…

Around 1:30 pm, we reached (searching waterfall but failed to find) at some point, we lost hope finding the waterfall, also hungry and a little bit tired, so we both had the discussion and decided to return…

We ate fruits, Biscuits, Bread, dates, and etc.



While coming back, we both took bath at the stream, the water was so chill and refreshing. The moment I fell on the water, I feel the strange thing in my body, all my tiredness, leg pain, hungry were filed away. What a pleasant moment!!!

We enjoyed all moments during the trekking…

With full of happiness and freshness in body and mind,  we came back to Chennai…
