“I went there for a day outing with my family and loved the place. It was so peaceful and serene. We had a fun picnic, went kayaking and came back by the evening. It was a good experience for a long drive and picnic rather than just going to a cafe in the city,” said Rahul Shivkar, a Hyderabad resident.
The monsoon season can make the surroundings even more inviting, with the greenery becoming more prominent after the rains. Cooler weather and cloudy skies can also make spending time outdoors more comfortable, while the lake and rocky landscape add to the experience.
Under The Moon can be a convenient option for a half-day or day trip from Hyderabad for those looking to spend some time away from the city’s usual bustle. Whether it is a road trip with friends, a family picnic or a weekend drive, the lakeside spot offers a chance to spend a few hours outdoors without travelling too far.
