Went for a short ride on last Sunday(27th Feb) with friends to a place earlier named as “Chota Ladakh” and don’t ask me the reason why! I am glad that now the name is changed to “Dodda Iyyur Rock Quarry” on google maps also
It is a dip kinda place made of quarry mining and bombing that used to happen around here and that created a huge hole which is now having rainwater stored along with ground water coming out which made it a small lake kind of a place.
It is beautiful if you go before it gets hot. We went there at around 7;45 AM and spent around 30-40 mins sitting there and taking pictures.
While returning stopped for a breakfast at Annapurna restaurant which is around 10 KMs before the Hoskote toll gate towards Bangalore. Decent place with good quality food and Filter coffee was too good.
Sharing some pictures of the place
The last picture is a small lake near the main road from which you take a small off-road to reach the quarry
