Pennar River Kayaking
Pennar River kayaking offers a rare opportunity to experience Gandikota canyon from water level. While most visitors admire the towering cliffs from the edge of Gandikota fort, kayaking allows you to paddle through the calm stretches of the river beneath the dramatic red sandstone walls. The scale of the gorge feels even more impressive when viewed from below. Adventure seekers often combine this activity with Gandikota camping, turning their trip into an immersive outdoor experience. For those making the journey from Hyderabad to Gandikota, kayaking adds an active dimension beyond sightseeing.
How to Reach
Kayaking starting points are located near the base of the gorge, accessible by local arrangements from the main village. The short Gandikota distance from the fort area to the riverbank is usually covered by jeep or guided transport.
Things to Do
Paddle along quiet sections of the Pennar, photograph the cliffs rising above, and pause to take in the silence of the canyon surroundings.
Tips Before Visiting
Confirm activity availability and Gandikota timings in advance. Wear secure footwear and follow all safety instructions provided by guides.
