Morning

Start your day with a serene visit to the ancient Humcha (Humpur) Jain Temple Complex, famed for its 7th‑century Jain shrines and tranquil ambiance. After exploring the intricately carved temples, enjoy a light breakfast at a local café near the hilltop, soaking in panoramic views of the Western Ghats.

Afternoon

Proceed to the revered Kollur Mookambika Temple, a major pilgrimage site dedicated to Goddess Mookambika. Spend time walking through the lush forest surroundings, participating in the midday pooja, and enjoying a simple vegetarian lunch at the temple’s mess.

Evening

Conclude your day at the historic Vadanbail Padmavati Temple, where you can admire the beautiful stone architecture and partake in the evening aarti. End with a relaxed stroll along the nearby riverbank before returning to your accommodation.
