| '''Mullayyanagiri''' is the highest peak in [[Karnataka]], [[India]]. Mullayyanagiri is located in the Chandra Dhrona Hill Ranges of the [[Western Ghats]] of [[Chikkamagaluru]] Taluk. With a height of {{convert|1925|m|ft|}}, it is the highest peak in Karnataka and also the highest peak in the [[Krishna River]] basin.<ref name="mlynpkbgr"/> The summit of Mullayanagiri has a small temple and houses a police radio relay station. Seethalayyanagiri is a prominent peak which is adjacent to this place.
| |
|
| |
| == Temple ==
| |
| The peak gets its name from a small temple (gadduge/tomb) at the summit, which is dedicated to a sage "Mulappa swamy" who is believed to have meditated at the caves only a couple of feet below the summit. The caves are accessible and not very deep, they have a direct entrance to the garbagudi of the temple, which is now blocked by the temple priests. Apart from multiple versions of folklore and strong [[Siddha]] culture around the belt, the origins or any information about the deity remains ambiguous.
| |
|
| |
| == Trekking ==
| |
| Previously, when the present asphalt roads and the 464 stone and concrete steps were not present, a trail was used to reach the peak, known as 'Sarpadari' or 'Sarpanadi'. Although it is not very frequently visited now, this trail is cherished by trekkers.{{fact|date=December 2017}}
