    Situated about 14 kilometers from Agumbe on a rocky mountain 900 meters above the sea level is the "Kundadri". A temple affiliated to the Humcha Jain Mutt stands atop the hill with a pond that is percieved to never dry. It is a pleasure to watch both Sunset and Sunrise from this place.

  • No new posts Jogi Gundi
    Situated roughly about 3 kilometers from Agumbe on the way to Barkana is a small pond called Jogi Gundi. This pond is the origin of the river Malapahaari; which is a tributary of river Tunga. The water to the pond makes its way through a cave around 30-50 ft deep. The cave is like a natural water cooler and is carved by the flowing water for many years. The name for this pond is derived after a saint (Jogi) who used to meditate at this location.

    "Barka", the mouse deer and "kana", meaning home. From the viewing platform nearly 2000 ft high above sea level is visible a V-shaped valley with a water-fall of river Sita at the center that falls from 2200 feet.
