Hampi Simplified

Image
Bike Ride to Hampi from Hyderabad. We started off from Hyderabad at around 7:00 in the morning. We took the most obvious route via Raichur to get to Hampi. So here are all the details of the trip: Road Condition: The road condition is pretty good right from the outskirts of Hyderabad up until Hampi. A stretch of  around 10 kms is a bit beaten up in certain parts as there is some road laying work going on. Other than that the road is fine without any major problems. At Raichur, make sure to take the diversion which directly takes you to the highway towards Hampi. It prevents you from entering into the city and encountering traffic. The surroundings of the road is also green and pleases the eye. Facilities along the Highway: There is no shortage of anything on this route. From multiple options for food to numerous Petrol pumps, you have it all. There is no need to worry about any amenities you may need. We had our breakfast at 'Hill park' near Jadcherla and
