We basically followed the Google maps , so it is like around 60 km from HSR Layout. Road is good the last few meter stretch is a little off road.

We landed to a private property as per a local person and that person is charging around 200 per person just to visit that place and 300 per person if you want to do boating.

Ps- reviews are according to location we reached as...
