Kodachadri trek
Kodachadri is a mountain peak with dense forests in the Western Ghats. The forest of Kodachadri and nearby hills is tropical rain forest as seen all along Western Ghats, a World Heritage site.
The name comes from native word "Kodacha" which means Jasmine of the hill. Kodachadri forms a background to the famous temple of Mookambika in Kollur.
There are several other smaller peaks and hills around the peak. The peak is barren due to strong winds and the thick forest cover at the base makes the peak invisible from lower ground. It is 10th highest peak of Karnataka.
