About Mandaragiri Sunrise Trek:
Mandaragiri, also known as Basadi Betta, is a significant Jain pilgrimage centre located near Tumkur in Karnataka, India. The Mandaragiri Trek offers a relatively easy climb, making it suitable for beginners and families. The hill is home to several ancient Jain temples, some dating back to the 12th century, which hold immense religious importance for the Jain community. The Mandaragiri Jain temples are renowned for their intricate architecture and serene ambience, attracting devotees and history enthusiasts alike. The Trek usually involves climbing around 450 well-maintained steps to reach the hilltop. This short ascent rewards trekkers with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, including the nearby Mydala Lake, which adds to the scenic beauty of the region. The highlight of the Trek is the Guru Mandir, an 81-foot-tall temple shaped like a peacock feather, a unique architectural marvel dedicated to Jain Acharya Shanti Sagar. This temple, along with the ancient Jain based on the hill, makes Mandaragiri a must-visit destination for those seeking a blend of spirituality and nature. The Mandaragiri Trek not only offers a spiritual experience through its Jain temples but also a refreshing escape into nature with its tranquil surroundings and picturesque views
