Kumara Parvatha Trekking Coorg 1 Night 2 days

Kumara Parvatha Trekking Coorg

Pushpagiri or Kumara Parvatha is at 1,712 metres the 2nd highest peak in Pushpagiri Wildlife Sanctuary in the Western Ghats of Karnataka and from its peak you get wonderful views across the Ghat mountains. This is also a tough trek and not just for anybody - it is probably the toughest trek in Karnataka and all the more rewarding for it. It is not difficult walking, but there is a lot of it and it is not suitable if you are not fit and it is not for small or young children. The route is about 13km there and 13km back and it is all uphill. 

If you enjoy trekking and want a really fine walk with a wonderful summit to enjoy - then this is the one for you!
