Subrahmanya, Jan 30, 2024: The Forest Department has banned trekking in Kumaraparvatha behind the Kukke Sri Subrahmanya Temple from February 1.

 

As it is sunny weather and as water problem is likely in the Kumaraparvatha area, the order banning trekking from February 1 till October or until further orders, has been issued in the interests of the trekkers.

The trekking period in Kumaraparvatha this year has ended. Moreover the grass in the hill has completely dried up and there is a need to be cautious to prevent fires. There is difficulty in providing drinking water as well as water for lavatory facilities in Girigadde where trekkers usually stay, forest officials said.
