Kumara Parvatha (Feb 27th & 28th)
The peak is also called as the Pushpagiri peak. It is situated in the Pushpagiri national park, a world Heritage site. The beautiful and the diverse flora and fauna make this an everlasting trekking experience. Standing tall with height of 1712m (5617ft), challenges the trekkers.
It is the heaven for the trekkers and the nature lovers. Trekking through the very dense Indian rain forest, the lush green grass lands and the bio-diversity of the western ghat are enough to energize you and boost you with the new zeal. Beautiful scenery and the panoramic view of the surrounding cannot be explained in the words. It is the must go place for any trekker or a nature lover.
The forest is infested with many species of animals. It has the highest number of King cobras. But that should only add to the thrill of climbing this peak.
