Pushpagiri or Kumara Parvatha, at 1,712 metres (5,617 ft), is the highest peak in Pushpagiri Wildlife Sanctuary in the Western Ghats of Karnataka. It is located in the Somwarpet Taluk, 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Somwarpet in the northern part of Kodagu district on the border between Dakshina Kannada and Kodagu districts. It is 6th highest peak of Karnataka.
Be careful during such path. Its deep forest.
While crossing the forest you'll see some open place and can see clear sky.
You need to cross such steep rocks. be careful.
On the TOP you can do camp fire, put your tent, collect some woods and enjoy evening. This will be really cold and windy.
Start early morning to climb down, just after sunrise so you can see another beauty of this forest.
How ever you need to be very careful with wild animals.
You can also spot some roots with art.

There is a temple you can leave your car there and start trekking. After 1.5 KM you will reach the forest check-post. You need to pay 200/- per person as entry fee to pushpagiri.
After that you need to cross a river and start trekking.
