Kundadri |
|
| |
| Located on Theerthahalli-Agumbe
road, about 12km from Theerthahalli, Kundadri Hill is
a gigantic monolithic rock formation. Surrounded by dense
evergreen forests, it is a lovely place for trekking.
A rough, stone-paved path leads to a Jain temple perched
atop the hill. Camping in the open at Kundadri Hills on
a full moon night is an exhilarating experience. |

Kodachadri |
|
| |
| Situated 100km from
Shimoga and 36km from Hosanagara is this enchanting mountain,
which overlooks the vast Western Ghats. Kodachadri is
famed for its glorious sunrises and sunsets. The peak
of Kodachadri (at an altitude of 1343 m above sea level)
can be reached by a five-hour trek. On the western side,
the hill descends steeply for about 1220m, meeting the
forests of Udupi district. The famous temple town of Kollur
is 12km away. These hills (4411ft.) constitute one of
the largest forest areas in Karnataka, and part of this
region forms the Mookambika Nature Reserve. Kollur is
an ideal base to explore the hills. The Mookambika Nature
Camp is 4km south of Kollur. |
