Do note these points before you decide to go to this place:
  • There are quite a number of steps. This place is not for elders and people who have leg pains.
  • No food is available at Pearl Valley. You need to carry food and water.
  • However, there are plenty of monkeys who are not only scary but also fearlessly snatch food from people. Opening a food packet at Pearl Valley is not advisable unless you know how to tackle these monkeys.

  • Petrol bunk is available at Anekal which is approximately 5 kms from Pearl Valley
