About Kumara Parvatha: The Toughest Challenge

Choosing between the Kukke and Somavarapete routes is the first big decision you will make. The Kukke side is the classic endurance test with steep, unforgiving climbs, while the Somavarapete trail is slightly more manageable and scenic, making it a better pick if you want to focus on the forest landscape rather than just the physical intensity.
