Bike Ride from Hyderabad to Nagarjuna Sagar Dam


As you all know, morning rides are the best rides. Hands down!

Having a bullet(Royal Enfield) definitely gives you a reason to throttle it out on buttery smooth roads which will take you to the heavenly locations.

It’s time to explore the spell bounding beauty of the well known grandiose ‘Nagarjuna Sagar Dam’.

Distance from Gachibowli, Hyderabad: 176 kms

As it is located in the close proximity of Hyderabad, it will be ideal for beginners to start bike riding as it is easily accessible by road.

If you are looking a weekend getaway near Hyderabad to make it memorable then Nagarjuna Sagar dam will truly mesmerise you.

Best time to visit: Monsoon and Winter(August to November).

To witness the lush greenery and beautiful waterfalls, it is recommended to visit in monsoon.
Coming back to my trip, I started at 6 AM with a cool breeze and a ginger tea to get a kick start. With all the riding gears in place, I was ready to hit the road en-route second largest water reservoir in India. Biggest benefit of starting early morning is less traffic and cool weather.

It took around 3 hours 15 minutes to reach. Since roads were smooth it was one break journey. I prefer light breakfast while travelling and had a plateful of idli.
The ride was fun as I was riding towards nature’s beauty with eye catching greenery and scenic landscapes.

After spending 2 peaceful hours seating in the nature’s lap to rejuvenate inner self in serenity, a refreshing Orange juice was a much needed drink.

I continued my ride to explore another beautiful place 'Ethipothala Waterfalls'. Beauty of this glorious waterfall will surely enchant you.

I started my return journey after spending a quality time capturing some captivating pictures.

Took a chill-pill dose of my favourite dessert Rajbhog Ice-Cream and continued back to Hyderabad.  Return journey was less enjoyable as there was traffic and I don’t wanted to extend it by taking more breaks hence completed it in one break where I had satisfying masala dosa.

I returned back to my flat after long 4 hours of riding. Exhausted with a tiring ride, but ride was awesome and place is worth visiting and is one of the most visited tourist attractions in the region.

Finally, my riding experience to breathtaking Nagarjuna Sagar dam comes to an end.
