Manchanabele Dam, located around 90 kilometers from Bangalore, is a perfect destination for a one-day motorbike trip. Here's a short itinerary to help you plan your trip: Morning: Start early to avoid traffic and enjoy cooler temperatures. Ideally, leave Bangalore by 7:00 AM. Take the Kanakapura Road (SH 17) towards Ramanagara. Enjoy the scenic ride along the highway with lush greenery on both sides. Manchanabele Dam (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Upon reaching Manchanabele Dam, park your motorbike in the designated area. Take a walk on the dam and admire the vast expanse of the lake.

Alternatively, you can pack your own lunch and have a picnic by the lake.
