JITO Bangalore South and JITO Professional Forum (JPF) successfully hosted Trekking meet under banner, “Meet – Network – Connect - Summit & Synergy - Climbing Higher. Achieving Together.” The early morning adventure to Kutugal Timmappana Betta on 28th February turned out to be a perfect blend of fitness, fellowship and fresh beginnings.

With an enthusiastic turnout of 60+ participants, the trek witnessed an inspiring mix of energetic kids, young professionals, entrepreneurs, and senior members from varied backgrounds. The diversity of the group added immense vibrancy to the experience, transforming the trek into not just a fitness activity, but a dynamic platform for meaningful networking and community bonding.

Starting at 3:30 AM sharp from National College Grounds, participants gathered with excitement despite the early hour. As the group ascended the hill, the spirit of camaraderie grew stronger with every step. Encouragement, shared laughter, and engaging conversations made the climb both enjoyable and memorable.

The highlight of the morning was the breathtaking sunrise at the summit. As golden hues spread across the sky, participants paused to soak in the serene beauty — a truly magical and rewarding moment for everyone. The stunning scenic views from the top offered panoramic vistas that left the group in awe and provided countless photo-worthy memories.

A serene natural pond along the trail added to the charm of the trek, offering a refreshing pause amid nature’s tranquility. It became a perfect spot for participants to connect, reflect, and appreciate the beauty around them.

The event was meticulously organised under the dynamic leadership of JITO Bangalore South JPF Convener Raunak Gulecha, with the strong support of JPF Committee Chairman – CA Hari Kishan P Chhajer, Chief Secretary Smt. Preksha Bhandari and Treasurer Shri Rishabh Pipada.
