Budhikote is another famous picnic spot near KGF. It is a small village situated in Bangarpet
Taluk about 15 miles from KGF. Budhikote
is also known as the "Fort of
Ash" as it is famous for its old fort. Budhikote is also the birthplace of Nawab Hyder
Ali Khan, the father of Tipu Sultan.
Since it was at a little distance away from KGF, it was not
as popular a picnic spot as the other places. However, since it has some historical
significance, as students in St Joseph’s Convent we were sometimes taken to
visit the Fort and the temple. The huge rocks in the area were excellent for
games of hide and seek and rock climbing.
Other nearby picnic and hunting places around KGF were the
Kamasamudram forest, Kuppam, etc
