It will be an ultimate life time experience for the people who love to trek. Should have very strong legs to trek and strong back to carry your luggage. Not easy as other places like Waynad-Kerala, Skandagiri-chikkaballapur. About 11KM of trek to reach top of the Kumara parvatha.

Trek path:
About 1/2KM to starting point of trek from the kekke subramanya temple. You will enter into the dense forest with high trees, you will find small snakes along the way and leeches in winter season.
After 5KM of trekking you will reach Battara mane where you will get food after loving pain of trek. He charges 60Rs for each person and get you rice, samber, rasam, buttermilk, pickle. You can have rest after lunch there and again start to trek to reach top of the hill. About 6Km from Battara mane to top. After 3Km from battara mane you will find Mantapa where you can stay in the night if you are not able to trek further or day was not enough to go further. Some people will stay in the night in Mantapa only and next morning they trek towards top. There will be many groups out there especially on Sundays and more than 50 peoples will be trekking along with you. After 3Km of trek from Mantapa you will reach top of the hill there you can stay whole night, you can put camp fire and enjoy ultimate night experience the nature, sky, stars and moon. Next morning you can see sunrise and the fast moving clouds near to you feels like a heaven for sure. Enjoy sunrise till you get bored and go back to battara mane, have food over again. Turn back to down the hill after stomach full of food. Book a room, have bath and go to temple and have darshana of Kukke subramanya and don't forget to have prasada in temple it will start int the night around 7:30PM better go early to avoid rush.
