---|---|
Amidst the undisturbed natural and lush green setting of the Mookambika Wildlife Sanctuary, the Anejhari Butterfly Camp promises an experience of a lifetime with the Souparnika River meandering gently by the camp and the sweet fragrance of the trees flowing in the air. The camp offers an amazing opportunity to trek the Kodachadri peak (10th highest peak in Karnataka), a declared natural heritage site by the Government of Karnataka. Kodachadri forms the background to the famous temple of Mookambika in Kollur, a visit to which is also a part of the many activities at the camp. Maravanthe and Byndoor are two beaches both of which are at a distance of around 35 km from the camp enhancing the entire experience for the guests. |
