The Fort name Chitrakaldurga means picturesque fort in the local language. With seven circles of fort enclosing several hills, water reservoirs, and ancient temples it is a beautiful sight to see. The oldest temple is the Hidimbeshwar temple from the legend of Mahabharata, where Bhim had a duel with the giant Hidimba. The present fort is the work of multiple dynasties spanning from the 11th to the 18th century. A visit of 3-6 hrs is recommended based on how much of the fort you plan to see.

THE 7 STRUCTURED FORT !!
A MASSIVE FORT WITH A VIBRANT STORY HIDDEN IN ITS BELLY.
Firstly, The amazing 11th century fort was very welcoming. Being a history lover, the full proof plan and the amazing structure put my chin down. The techniques used and followed those days to save their motherland was commendable. There is so much to learn from our ancestors.
To add thrill to my visit, the trek over hudure hejje was really adventurous and fun.
The place is quite clean and pleasant. Only at two places within you get some water supplies and snacks. Kothi Raja, the man behind the tourist attraction was also an add on to my visit, as I had a chance to talk to him for quite some time.
To conclude... The big boulders have weaved many a stories, we need a patient ear to hear.....

We (group of 5, with parents) left Bangalore at 8:30AM on a hired cab. Breakfast enroute around 9:30 AM. Got lunch (Upadhya veg, recommended as we couldn't find many great places in the town) before taking detour from the highway to the town. Fort is just 10min from the highway. Reached the fort post lunch at 1:00 pm. Hired a guide (400₹). Spend good 4:30 hrs including the climb to the top watch tower (weapons store).
Had an amazing and relaxing time with family. Left at 5:30 pm, reached Bangalore by 9:30pm.
Great drive and a great place. Will recommend and will go again.

If you are a lover of history and heritage this place is a must-visit! Though born and bred in Karnataka, it took me 46 years to visit this classic piece of history. Took me a full 5 hours to just go around the place! Its sprawling to say the least! And exudes a sense of rusticness that is unmatched.
I drive from Bengaluru to Chitradurga and the road was quite good. It takes about 3.5 hours to reach the fort from Jalahalli. There is a good KSTDC hotel nearby (Mayura) just near the entrance for excellent breakfast and coffee.
The payment mode is made digital, and I feel its good because it avoids corrupt practices. Though the idea is good, people struggle to make payment. Ample parking space for cars is made available. The environment is pleasant and quite clean. Guides are also available.
It is better to carry drinking water as there are one or two small shop inside, and no other drinking water facility is available. Fortunately, we got chilled buttermilk packets when we visited.
You will need about 6 hours to watch all the places. Overall, a great place to visit.

Awesome place to visit for those who love history... Great place to teach children on history as well. Very neatly maintained, good arrangements for drinking water and rest rooms. Really enjoyed the time..Be mindful of guides who ask for their service, bit it's there buisness. Parking could have been better...

An absolutely stunning fort - built over huge boulders that are reminiscent of the more famous Hampi. Both were once under the control of the Vijayanagar kings though this was built by the Nayakas ( a principality that broke off into an independent kingdom towards the end of the empire ) with notable additions made by Hyder Ali.
Its strange that such an impressive & superbly maintained fort is not part of the usual tourist circuit...the monument has so many facets to it - the architecture of its temples, the unique topography that in itself is a photographer's delight & offers opportunities for the more adventuresome, inspiring folklore at every corner, stories of how an almost impregnable fort eventually fell to its enemies...if you can withstand the heat ( the mighty Mysore army did much more!! ), make the effort & explore this fort - time has provided us the opportunity to do at leisure what great kings once had to sacrifice entire armies for.

Travellers need to devote one full day to see to see this fort. One of the BEST forts in India but not very well known

Attention : il faut prevoir env 3H pour la visite minimum
C'est le fort historique du Karnataka. Dans un cadre superbe de rochers, comme on en trouvera à Hampi.
C'est sur la route entre Chikmagalur et Hampi
Commencé au 12ème et renforcé au fil des siècles, c'est finalement devant les anglais qu'il est tombé.
Tout visiter peut prendre 2 jours ! Mais nous avons fait la partie principale : on passe 7 niveaux de murailles, très hauts murs sans mortier, avec des couloirs coudés qui renforcent la défense et des hauts escaliers. En haut se trouve les restants d'une des forteresses et des temples
C'est relativement intéressant mais il ne reste pas grand chose.
Quelques belles photos à faire
Peu d'explications sur place

Sette cinta di mura che si dipanano lungo e intorno a una serie di colline: e un nome locale che è tutto un programma, Fortezza d'Acciaio. Ma le possenti mura concentriche, le munitissime porte e tutti gli accorgimenti escogitati dai progettisti (cisterne, granai, magazzini per provviste, non furono sufficienti alla fine del 1700 per bloccare gli inglesi. Oggi il forte si mostra in tutta la sua possanza e anche con i suoi 18 templi, le belle strutture architettoniche e i decori, i vasti panorami. Per chi vuole c'è anche la possibilità di una bella arrampicata su una delle colline, favorita da orme scavate nella roccia a mo' di scala. Si puo' visitare anche la cavità, che si apre dietro un piccolo portale, dove la leggenda dice che la moglie di un soldato, lasciata per qualche ora a far la guardia alla botola che dava accesso a un tunnel segreto collegato con l'esterno, bloccò l'assalto dei nemici facendoli fuori uno a uno con violenti colpi inferti con una pesante pentola, finchè non scatto l'allarme generale.

It should not be. Lots of people visit the fort on national holidays as it is a tourist attraction.

Hi Sivam,
Yes it requires a lot of walking and climbing to be done if you want to cover the entire place. The area is vast. However; we had taken along our grandfather who is 80 plus and our grandmother who is about 70 years old. They were able to ascend and descent slowly and saw a few places if not all. It’s a very beautiful location. Must visit if u can. Book the KSTDC approved guest house close by. The rooms are neat, the view at night is amazing and some decent food as well.

Have been there twice (once alone and once with my family). A must for all going from Bangalore to Hampi (its about midway). Road from B'lore is great but the rest of the way to Hampi will slow you down (but it is not bad). The fort itself is an excellent place to visit. Does involve climbing some steps but the sights within are worth it. I'd recommend spending at least two hours.Take water if you visit in summer (there is a small shop Inside but it doen't sell much). No restaurant in Chitradurg, just shops selling biscuits, chips, cold drinks etc.

In my understanding, there are many good hotels and restaurants within 2 to 5 Km radius. I would also advice a visit to Laxmi tiffin house, which is walking distance- it is a pure south Indian joint, reasonably clean.
As a general note vegetarian restaurants and joints are generally cleaner and better- but they may not look so!!.

I am fascinated by such ancient places and would like to explore it a lot. But, I am a senior and would like to do it over two days. Are there different areas you can go tp from the main entrance, so you do not have to go back over the same route again if you go back on a second day???

Unfortunately there is only entrance. However one can do the tour of the left side of he entramce on day 1- the more interesting, comparatively better maintained and more visited than the other side. I went with my mother,a more enthusiastic soul than me. A way to not be exhausted is to visit the place at the earliest. Eaely morning makes it more comfortable and we can see more od the fort. Don't think twice before taking multiple short breaks. It's a place to breathe, stay and look around. Apart from the fort, the view of the large windmills and mountains around is also breath taking.
Happy visit.

Answers to the questions that I am aware of
2. There is a Mayura yatri Nivas almost opposite to the fort and that can be one option for food. It is walking distance from fort entrance and you can see this from the fort
4. Entry fee is Rs.5 for adults above 15 years ( I visited few months back and hopefully this has not changed)
5. Chandavalli garden is around 3-4 kms from from the fort.
