About this route

Extends the Vikarabad run with the Kotepally (Nagasamudram) reservoir, a rock-ringed lake on the Vikarabad to Tandur side. Combine it with the hills in a single day, the two are roughly twenty kilometres apart.

Best months · Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar

Highlights

  • Reservoir ringed by rocky hills and dry deciduous forest
  • Kayaking and boating on site
  • Pairs with Ananthagiri temple and viewpoint

Good to know

  • Hyderabad's Outer Ring Road is closed to two-wheelers, so leave the city on the regular highways, not the ORR.
  • The lake end-point coordinate is approximate; navigate to Kotepally reservoir by name once near Vikarabad.
  • Kayaking queues at the reservoir can be long on weekends.
  • Water level is best during and after the monsoon; the lake can look much smaller in summer.
