Hyderabad to Kohir hills, road trip

[Gowtham]

Kohir hills : Hyderabad weekend getaway

 

Location : Kohir hills
Distance : 90  kilometers from Gachibowli

Kohir hills Highlights:

• Windmills
• Zero crowd
• Calm and peaceful
• Ideal place for nature lovers

GPS location tag : Google maps

 

• Mr. Vamshi has guided us to this beautiful place.
• A well spent weekend which involved a cars photo shoot in a cloudy and fresh village environment.
• Monsoons and winters would be the best time to visit.
• Villagers are friendly. Would suggest to go along with group as the area is remote.

First view of the windmills and locals called them fans.

 

Our cars looked so tiny in size on comparison.

Taken from a YI action camera. Went over board just for fun.

 

Over head shot

 

150 degree view, too wide?

 

Arrow head

 

We spent around an hour and moved to the next location, which is just a kilometer away from the first windmill.

[Gowtham]

This wind mill is located on the hill top

 

View point from the hill

 

We parked the low GC cars and started exploring the hill in EcoSport.

 

More wind mills

 

Saran started pushing his car on to those empty lands and it's time to kick in some dust.

 

 

 

It was short and a quick meet.
It was nice meeting Vamshi for the first time and we were amazed how his lancer had performed throughout the drive.

Varun's and Saran's black mambas rocked as usual. 

Hope to have more exciting breakfast drives on the coming weekends.
Interested members can join us for the next weekend.
Thank you.

Sure.

It was a great meet with Gowtham, Saran and Varun.

I really enjoyed the drive with you guys...
The weather is so nice for this event.
Yeah...It's our first meet and made memorable....
Thanks again Gowtham for invitation for this Automotive photography event.

[sagar]

Brilliant captures Vamshi and Gowtham.. The weather looked perfect and so did the crew. Nothing like a drive with like minded enthusiasts who would not have any target of hitting to a certain destination. Missed it this time and I'm gonna make sure that I won't the next weekend.

We went to recce the spot for the next meetup.
Villagers are friendly they invited us to their home.

 

They asked us following questions :
How much does your car cost?
Why are guys coming in separate cars, wasting diesel?

What is your salary?Are you married?You have kids? 

Personally I had great fun interacting with them.

Yeah, place is very isolated. May not be safe for families.

Yeah, it is under 90 kilometers from Gachibowli.
Just before Zaheerabad.

It is little away from highway.(1 kilometer)
Even we are not aware of it.
@TDI guided us to this place.
Early morning is the best time to visit.

Nice exploration drive.
You guys keep on digging places around Hyderabad.
 

I stay very close to Pune highway.
Now the 4-lane is completed till Zaheerabad.

This place will be early morning getaway for me. 

 

How is the road after we divert from Highway?

After the divert from highway, the road was decent. We took low ground clearance cars (civic) and didn't face any issue.

[karthik]

Thank you for the quick response Saran.

If Civic can do it, it would be a cake walk for my Duster.

 

Best time to visit (morning/evening)?

I am thinking of an early morning visit.

[sbhamidi]

Will plan sometime in my Duster

Hi @Ranger @TDI

Great thread sir. Would love to do an early morning drive to this place some weekend. Could you throw some light on any decent food options around this place?

You can find plenty of food joints on this section.
But don't expect luxury.

Zaheerabad is famous for dhabas , if you can drive little further.
