Kundadri

Kundadri hills is famous for the Jain temple at the top of the hill. Earlier Kundadri was not accessible by road. One had to trek the hill to reach Kundadri. But, now a motorable road is built and the top of the hill can be reached by vehicles.
Kundadri hills lies in the midst of dense jungles which is home for wild animals. The Jain temple at the hill dates back to 17th century. 
A small pond lies next to the temple which is filled with cold water throughout the year.
A magnificent view of the plains of Agumbe can be had from the top of the hill. The view is really panoramic. The breathtaking view is a sight to be captured in camera.



Kundadri can be reached from Thirthahalli by driving towards Agumbe road. Take a left turn at Guddekeri which is 24 km from Thirthahalli. Kundadri is 7 km from here.
Last 1 km till the hill top are hair pin roads and the road gets narrow and dangerous.
