2 DAY 2 NIGHTS TREK
- Kumara Parvatha
If you want lovely homestay, warm campfire, adventurous trek, and beautiful sunrise all at once, this is a place to go. Covered by evergreen forests, it is a 13.5 kms trek from the base of Kukke Subramanya. It is one of the most beautiful treks offering nature lovers with a wide variety of trees. Visibility can be an issue due to fog in this season. But reaching at the top of the peak is just so worth it.
