Kumara Parvat is the second highest peak in Karnataka (The highest is Mullayangiri near Chikmaglur) located near the Madikeri-Mangalore district border. There are two routes to the hill top, one from Somvarpet(Near Madikeri) and the other from Kukke Subrahmanya(Mangalore district).
We are planning to go by the Subrahmanya route. Does anybody has any prior experience of this route, or has any information to share.
