Satkosia Sunrise Ridge
Sitting about 19 km from Daspalla in Nayagarh district, Satkosia Sunrise Ridge is a popular early-morning outing for those who like their views earned rather than driven to. The hike is manageable, the forested river valley below opens up nicely at the top, and October through March keeps the conditions comfortable. It's a full day trip at around five hours round, and parking is on hand when you arrive. There was no entry fee at last update.
