    Wow, what a scenic place. Must visit place in coorg. Though you have to pay for it, both from your pocket and from yourself as well. Pocket heavy because you can’t take your regular car there. You need to hire a jeep charging 2750 inr for a family or 500 per person. Reason being off-road route in last 4km. Bike riders can go but you need to be prepared for it. Not recommended for old age people as you need to climb a good feet and steep steps. Tough on yourself as it Takes 40-50min to reach to the top due to off-road route. Weak stomachs won’t take it😊. On reaching you can use clean washrooms. Overall highly recommended.

    One of the most beautiful peaks to experience the view and weather. We reached there in a jeep as it was about 4 km off-road towards the peak. Found a few people in a private SUV struggling to drive the route. It's always better to hire a jeep. You can join with other teams to occupy the jeep in maximum capacity to share the cost per jeep. Finally the jeep will reach just below one peak. There after we have a small trekking to reach our amazing view. We have fabulous views all around. Climate was changing instantly with fog and cool breeze. Worth spending time over there, in fact you have limited time as we get back to the jeep in specified time. This off-road journey is not recommended for aged people, babies and pregnant women.
