Trek to Kumara Parvata

July 27th, 2009 2:01 am by TheHumanBot

the way up

What
Kumara Parvata peak is the third highest in Karnataka. Also considered the toughest and most beautiful trek in Karnataka.

Where
The trek starts at Subramanya, 300+ km from Bangalore.

When
June 20-21, 2009

The peak is most of the time covered by clouds. Here’s a picture of the full mountain on a clear day.

Kukke Subramanya temple
At the backdrop of the temple lies Kumara mountain. The trek starts here

Bhattara Mane (House of Bhat family)
After 6 km uphill work, we reached the famous Bhatt’s house. Trekkers stop here for food and shelter.

so steep
still a long way to climb…

kumara parvata conquered!
finally, at the peak

the most delicious dinner
Bhatt served us simple vegetarian meal for dinner. After a day long tough trek, you expect (well you don’t need ) nothing more in the wilderness
