Lumpini Park - Bangalore, North

Lumpini Park is located on outer-ring road very close to Hebbal flyover (North Bangalore). If you are travelling from MG Road, take right on Hebbel flyover (don’t take the fly over). After you take this right, you need to drive for about 2 to 3 kms and then you see car parks on left for lumpini park.

If you stay anywhere in and around sarjapur road, koramangala, outer ring road, ITPL / Whitefield area, I would say east or southern east Bangalore than prefer outer ring road (via Maratha to reach Lumpini Park. In this case, lumini park will be on your right. You need to take right on fourth signal from KR Puram flyover (old madras road) and turn immediately left on the service road. If you miss this turn then you need to travel till Hebbal flyover and then take a roundabout (not u turn, it’s not allowed) to come to lumini park.

Travel Time – 30 mins from MG Road, 20 mins from Old Madras Road (heavily depends on traffic conditions)
Stay Time – 4 hours ( can be longer if you have more kids in your group)

Preferred hours – Evening, try reaching by 4:00 / 4:30 PM and stay till 8:00 PM. Park has good lighting.Travel Plan – depends where you stay in Bangalore

Funtertainment – Boat ride, you have options to choose from regular boat or pedal boat. Variety of kids rides to choose from. For adults, try your luck with shooting and hitting. You can also chose for wall climbing (for amateur), water pool and limited land rides. Best thing I like about the park is that people of all age group will like it.

Food is Average to Good depends on what you like and buy.
What can be added – rides (horse, came), puppet show…..
Do not miss – boating and wall climbing
Avoid – when it’s raining

Rough idea on how much you need to spend (per head)
Entry fee – 30
camera fee – 50
boating – 40 / more for paddle boat (don’t remember though)
Kids ride – 10 per ride
food for 2 – approx 200 bucks
budget approx 500, family of 2 +1 (excluding travel)

Overall rating – 4 out of 5
