Thadiyandamol is the
highest peak in Madikeri ranges of Western Ghats, bordering Kerala and
Karnataka states. On the road to Talakaveri around 15kms from Virajpet a left
deviation at a place called Kakkabe takes you to the foothills where the famous
Nalaknad Palace is situated. The private vehicles go right up to a small stream
running across the road. Steep uphill drive for about 4kms along this road from
the Kakkabe junction is in itself very thrilling. After a decent walk though
the tree covered jeep track for about 2.5kms the road ends and uphill trek of
another 2kms starts under the open sky.
There is a big rock en-route which many use for putting up
tents. Halfway through, there is a boundary built by piled-up stones, which I guess
is the boundary between two states.
