Shiva Ganga is the place of Lord shiva. It is located 50 km away from the banglore. Shivagange is located near Tumkur road, nearly 8 km from Dabas Pet. Most of the people don't no about this historical place and it was built during the time of chola.The ideal timing to start the trek is 5.30 or 6.00 Am
There is a koneru (
A stone-faced tank with steps.) constructed at the foot of the temple .In olden days people used to bath there before entering into the main trek of the holy mountain.
Here are the different compositions of nandhi(Divine bull)

At the starting point if the trek this old temple construction is there..It was very old but still looks so strong and beautiful!
Nandi was sculptured with a huge rock,the texture was amazing
There are stairs (steps cut into the rocks) all the way to the top. The view from tops is awesome,
You will find some awesome landscapes all the way while trekking.
The ambiance on the way will attracts the nature lovers and travel lovers.
It is a bit difficult to reach the top of the mountain because the way was not good and proper and its better to avoid old people for this place and It is even risky for the young one's too!
