Good to know
🛕 Temple dress: Modest traditional dress: dhoti or trousers for men, saree or churidar for women; no shorts. Karnataka temples are tightening dress codes — we confirm before you go.
⛰️ Kodachadri jeep: Cars can't go to the top — permit jeeps leave Kollur; the last one goes up in the early afternoon. Rough mud track: not for back trouble or pregnancy. Usually stopped in heavy monsoon.
🪪 Karnataka entry: Kollur is in Karnataka: interstate permit, border tax and tolls are billed at actual cost. We re-check entry rules before you travel.
🏨 Your stay: You book one night in Kollur — temple lodges fill up on weekends and festivals. Your driver's night allowance is in our price.
