The Experience
🌳 Thick Forests
The trek begins at Kukke Temple and dives straight into shola forests buzzing with cicadas. The shade keeps it cool, but the trail is relentlessly steep.
🏡 Bhattara Mane
Midway, trekkers halt at Bhattara Mane, a local house where simple meals and water are available. This stop is legendary among KP trekkers.
🌿 Grasslands & Shesha Parvatha
Beyond the forest, the trail opens into rolling grasslands with the imposing Shesha Parvatha ahead. Clouds drift across the valley, creating magical vistas.
⛰️ Kumara Parvatha Peak
The final stretch is rocky and exposed, but the reward is 360° Western Ghats views at Pushpagiri peak. On a clear day, you’ll see endless ridges fading into the horizon.
