Durgam Cheruvu Hyderabad - Holiday


Hidden from the world by an imposing ancient granite rock shield of boulders and hillocks, Durgam Cheruvu is considered to be one of the unique attractions of Hyderabad.

Spread over 63 acres, the rock formation surrounding the lake has been aesthetically illuminated, with quaint waterfalls, an interesting rock garden, and a beautiful floating fountain. Comfortable seating arrangements, a 2km walkway, a green belt and a coffee shop under a huge rock on the eastern side of the lake add an elegant touch to a harsh landscape.

You can climb these rocks, spend time in the garden, go boating or just sit around and commune with nature.

The adventurous can try rock climbing, rappelling or trekking amongst the rough and rocky terrain. Pick a quiet spot at the lake and try your hand at fishing. Shoot a few ducks and birds with your camera. Art enthusiasts would like a dekko at the lounge-cum-art gallery and a sculptor park. The restaurant at the lake offers a number of delicious fish specialities.

By night, the area is a popular hangout with youngsters. The towering boulders glow eerily with subdued lighting. The lake is separated from a dance floor by a picket fence. The sledge hammer music, Popular DJs and ethereal ambience makes the Secret Lake the most happening outdoor venue for young Hyderabadis to shake a leg.
