Hill Top Trail Marking

The trail is rough and steep to climb. However, it is well-marked. Most of the part is covered with hard rock. However, some places are covered with loose rocks and dust. Those places are pretty tricky to climb. Overall experience is really good. The trail is covered with thick trees and the outside scene can not be seen much. There is no view at the top. Instead, there is a temple-like structure, and people hang stones and water bottles from the tree.

I and my friend reached there around noon and started climbing almost immediately. It took us approximately 1 hour and a little over 2 hours to climb down. My friend’s attire posed more challenge for her as she was wearing tight jeans and ordinary shoes.

There is a lake in front of the hill. Locals were bathing there.
