Walking through dense forest to hilltop from where the views are awe-inspiring, this hike begins after 15 minutes drive from the heart of the city. The place is also famous for Buddhist stupa. It takes 5 hours to complete the hike, normally three hours to going up and two hours to coming down.
The taxi to and from is only 15 minutes drive. Now, a motor able road leads through Raniban (Queen Forest) to this stupa. It takes about 45 minutes to reach there in motor/jeep while the hike is about 5 km. on foot and takes about 3 hours.
