Namma Chennai is not all about beaches! Just 100 km from the city, you can find this small range of hills with perennial, deep blue streams wafting through. You can hike or trek anywhere between 3 hours and 3 days! First-time trekkers, this place is perfect for you to test waters. Start from Chennai around 4 AM and drive towards the base of the trek, which is in a village called Aree on the Pitchatur – Kalahasti road just beyond the border. Professional trekkers can trek up to the third level that has a deep blue pool, and a waterfall. All the pools are deep here with the last one reaching at least 40 feet.

Pro-Tip: The journey involves 4 hours of trekking through open ground, forests, and boulders. Go with guides if you don’t want to get lost in the jungle. Take life jackets if you’re not a swimmer.
