Places to visit Jakkur Bangalore

Jakkur Lake covers 160 acres of open water and gives shelter to 170 different kinds of native and visiting birds. The water stays clear because the local group uses natural plants and reed beds to clean incoming water each day.

• Bird Sightings: Look out for big pelicans, storks, and ducks resting on the small mud islands.
• Walking Track: A 4.2 km mud and stone pathway circles the lake under broad neem trees.
• Visiting Hours: Gates stay open every day from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM and again from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM with free entry.

Jakkur Aerodrome covers 214 green acres as Karnataka’s oldest government flying school. On weekend mornings, anyone can drop by and take a quick ride in a tiny two-seater plane.

• Open Banks: Soft grass patches offer easy places to sit, chat, and watch small ducks swim by.

Prestige Avon covers 3 acres on Thanisandra Main Road, with 250 new homes just 3.5 km east of Jakkur Lake. Built by the Prestige Group, its three 16-floor towers sit 7 km from Manyata Tech Park. Living here means you are minutes from open green lakes for quick morning walks.
