Channarayana Durga Fort Trek

You have seen friends and colleagues of yours taking a break and heading off on a trek and returning, looking and feeling refreshed. Now, you want to give it a whirl too, but then, you are not a trekker - yet.

No worries - Plan The Unplanned is there for you!

Your first trek doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be real - like the experiences of 45,000+ trekkers who trusted us and challenged themselves.

Our treks are designed for first-timers - those who don’t want to experience too much physical fatigue. But you are still up for some adventure! If you are someone like this, then the Channarayana Durga trek is the perfect choice for you!

A fairly easy trek, this option allows you an escape from the city for a few hours. On top of that, this trek allows you to explore some history and ancient architecture. After all, you are heading to a 17th century fort that sits several feet high. The distinct levels of the fort offer you multiple experiences and challenges, but the view from the top is truly surreal!

Trek highlights

Unlike many other treks, this trek has so much variety to offer – what starts off as a slightly challenging trek, goes on to become better and prettier. The wide blue skies will lie in wait for you, as the looming structures of the once resplendent Channarayana Durga fort start to appear. Although sitting atop giant rocks, this trek gives you a little bit of everything – from pristine water bodies to flowers happily dancing in the breeze.
