Annapoorneshwari Temple Hornadu-Timings, How to reach,full detail

Each deity is highly regarded in Hinduism for a specific purpose. If Maa Saraswati symbolizes wisdom and Maa Lakshmi wealth, then Mata Annapoorneshwari represents food. As per Hindu Mythology, there are 9 Shakti Peethas in Karnataka, Annapoorna Temple Hornadu is one among them.

The words Anna, which means grains or food, and Poorna, which means perfect and whole, are combined to form Annapoorna. Annapoorneshwari, then, refers to a complete or ideal meal.

It is thought that Sri Annapoorneshwari is a manifestation of Lord Shiva’s wife, Goddess Parvati.

Location: Hornadu, Karnataka, India

Main deity: Annapoorneshwari (Parvati)

Online Darshan Booking: Horanadu Annapoorneshwari Temple Darshan, Pooja Timings (darshanbooking.com)

Chennai to Goa Road trip with Family

Note: I am not a professional blogger, this is my first blog. Please ignore any errors or mistakes.

Intro:

Before starting the road trip, i did some search & had a skeleton plan. It is like Going from Chennai - Banglore -Subramanya / Sringeri / Hornadu / Udupi / Murudeshwar / Gokarna / Nippili falls / Jog Falls / Vibuthi falls / Dudhsagar falls / Goa - Banglore - Chennai.

If you notice in the above plan, only chennai - banglore & banglore - chennai is fixed route. Apart from this nothing else is planned or booked. This is because, my brother is there in Banglore, so i kept Banglore as my base.

We (I, My Wife, my mother, my mother in law & 2 kids (7 & 3 Yrs old) started for this wonderful year end trip. I asked them to pack things for 8 to 9 days but did not reveal my plan except Banglore & Subramanya.

I used to browse daily night about next day’s places of interest & prepare a mini plan for next day.

Day 1 - Thr (23rd Dec, 2021) - Chennai to Banglore (350 Kms - 6.5 Hrs )

We started from my home by 8.30 AM after breakfast. Drove towards Banglore for 4 Hours. Had our first break near Krishnagiri in a Gas station. We refreshed ourselves, had our parceled lunch (Veg Pulav, Raitha & chips). After spending one hour, we continued with our journey & reached my Brother’s house in Banglore by 4 PM. Enjoyed the rest of the day there, had dinner & retired for the day. I had asked my family members to get ready by 5 AM.

Day 2 - Fri (24th Dec, 2021) - Banglore to Subramanya (290 Kms - 6 Hours)

We started early from Banglore by 5.30 AM towards Subramanya after filling Diesel to our car. After exiting from Hassan Highway at Chennarayapattna, we had our first break (around 8.30AM) for breakfast in a road side shop. We ordered Idly, Vada & Poori. Some random guy, who was passing near us, stopped & started a small conversation in Tamil after seeing our TN registered vehicle. Are you going on a tour or going to any specific place. I said, we are on a tour & going to Subramanya temple. He said, you should also go to Dharmasthala (Temple for Shiva), a very good pilgrim place. We finished our Breakfast then continued our drive towards Subramanya. We stopped enroute at Bisle viewpoint, then we reached Subramanya by 12.15 Hours, Parked our vehicle & went for Dharshan. After good Dharshan, we had lunch feast at temple which was very good.

As per initial plan, we were planned to go to Sringeri. I checked the google maps for Sringeri, it showed two routes, one goes via Bajagoli (160 Kms - 3.45 Hrs) & another via Dharmasthala, Ujire (156 Kms - 3:50 Hrs). I chose the 2nd route, since it was going via Dharmasthala.

Subramanya to Dharmasthala ( 54 Kms - 1:15 Hrs)

Started around 3 PM from Subramanya & reached Dharmasthala by 4 PM. Dharshan opens only by 5 PM, we went & sat in queue by 4:15 itself & completed our dharshan by 5: 15 PM.

Dharmasthala to Sringeri (104 Kms - 2:30 Hrs)

Started around 5:30 PM towards Sringeri. This is completely a ghat road crossing a reserve forest. When we arrived at the Kuduremukha Forest check post around 7 PM, they entered our vehicle details, mobile number, no of persons travelling & gave a Card with QR code in it & asked us to submit it in the next gate & also said Max speed limit is 40 KMs/Hr. Only at this moment i realised i am going to go through a dense forest area. This forest road is very narrow, width only to accomodate two vehicles, no shoulder area in either side of the road. It was fully dark, no lights anywhere. This journey was a bit scary, since not many vehicles were coming in either direction. We were driving all alone, no company, no street lights, nothing. We reached the Tanikodu Forest checkpost, handed the card & continued our journey to Sringeri. We reached Sringeri by 8:30 PM. Had dharshan & dinner at temple premise.

At 10 PM, we could not get accomodation in devasthanam rooms, but got a decent room in front of temple itself & retired for the day there.

Day 3 Sat - 25th Dec, 2021 Sringeri to Udupi (100 Kms - 2:30 Hrs)

Started our day by 8:30 AM from Sringeri. I had planned to go to Kaapu beach, hence took the same forest route & crossed it (Had breakfast at Nisarga restaurant at entry checkpost). While driving noticed a board to one of the falls, went to the starting point of that falls trail (some 300 steps), but forest department said it is only for sight seeing & cannot get to the waters as it is deep. So dropped that & contiinued to Kaapu beach. Midway through the journey, realised that we would reach that beach around 12 Noon & changed the map to Udupi directly. Went to Krishna temple, parked vehicle opposite to North entrance & directly went to Free darshan queue. Had a very good Dharshan & went for temple lunch. Got an accomodation in Yatri Nivas within temple premise itself. Rested in the room for an hour.

Started at 4 PM for Malpe beach, Kids played in beach sand for a while. Went for the queue to St Mary’s Island. But entry was closed just one person before me in the queue as the boat capacity was only 125 & he had already counted those numbers & asked me to come next day morning 9 AM. We went to sea walk there saw the sun set, spent the rest of the evening there & returned back to Udupi temple. Went for evening dharshan & then finished our awesome dinner at temple & retired in the room for the day.

Note: Had a discussion with one of my friend from Chikmagalur, he asked me not to skip St Mary Island & gave a plan to Kollur, Murudeshwar, Gokarna & Goa. While returning asked me to cover Dudhsagar & other places.

Day 4 Sun - 26th Dec, 2021 St Mary Island to Kollur (58 Kms - 1:10 Hrs)

We started from Udupi by 8:30 Am & had our breakfast on the way to Malpe beach, reached St Mary Island by 10 AM by a boat ride of 30 minutes (Rs 300 Per person), We played in the beach water for 2:30 hours. Walked the small island, it was awesome. It was looking completely different from each side. Never seen such a beautiful beach in my life (I think, i will definitely go there again). Had lunch at a only shop available in the Island. It was not so good, but Ok to have something rather than nothing.

We were discussing that we are glad that did not get tickets yesterday evening as we would not have enough time to see the beauty of this Island.

Important Note: Please plan to go this place on Saturday or Sunday, otherwise you get only max of 1 hour there.

We reached back Malpe beach in the same boat around 3 PM.

Malpe beach to Kollur (58 Kms - 1:10 Hrs)

We started our journey from Malpe beach towards Kollur Mookambika temple. Reached the temple around 4:30 PM, directly went to Temple Darshan. Had a good Darshan there. Then went to look for some rooms in temple devasthanam. Luckily we got Devasthanam accomodation there, the rooms was very cheap, neat, clean, with running hot water & lifts. Visited the temple again, had darshan & had an amazing dinner at temple & retired for the day.

Day 5 Mon - 27th Dec, 2021 Kollur to Murudeshwar (72 Kms - 1:25 Mins)

We started at 10:30AM from Kollur after having breakfast in a near by shop towards Murudeshwar. Reached the temple around 12 Noon. Went to queue directly, had a good dharshan followed by good lunch at temple. Spent some time in the temple after lunch, played in the beach nearby. Then started from there by 3 PM

Murudeshwar to Jog falls (88 Kms - 2 Hrs)

Since we were seeing mostly beaches, i deviated from the plan suggested by my friend to Jog falls instead of going to Gokarna & Goa. So again went to Ghat area to Jog falls. While going through the drive stopped at Sharaavati valley view point & reached jog falls by 5 PM. Visited the other side of the falls, where we can have a view of Roarer falls. Came out & i was enquiring about rooms with a tea / bajji shop there. He a gave a contact who arranged for a superb accomodation in Jog falls itself. We went to other side of Jog falls, had dinner, could’t see anything there as it was very dark. While waiting for dinner, met a guide there who promised us to take to the famous sight seeing spot, top view of Raja & Roarer falls (Kumki song shoot location). We came back to our room by 9 PM & retired there for the day.

Day 6 Tue - 28th Dec, 2021 Jog falls to Vibuthi falls (95 Kms - 2:30 Hrs)

We started early by 7:30 AM from our room to the falls top view. It was breathtaking & unbelievable to see the 2nd tallest falls in India from the top. Spent some 45 mins & reached to our room by 8:30 AM. Vacated our room, spent a good amount of time there & came to Jog falls view point side. Had breakfast there, spent time seeing all the falls from this side.

Started from Jog falls around 10:30 AM, enquired about the route to Nippili falls to some local guys, they said, there is no water in that falls now, so dropped that plan & headed directly towards Vibuthi falls. After driving for 1.5 hours, came across a small village where there was a small road side hotel. I stopped my vehicle & got my veg pulav parceled for lunch. In that Hotel, i saw big banners of Vibuthi falls & next to it, Yana rocks. Then i enquired with them about that too, that person said, both are very good places you should see both. We reached Vibuthi falls at 1:45 PM (the last one km of road was more of gravel), had our lunch, started our walk towards the falls. It is 1 kms walk, will take 20 minutes to reach the falls. As you near the falls, the sound of the falls itself was so amazing, i wanted to enter the water as soon i heard that sound. My kids were equally excited. We can get a life jacket for rent of Rs 50. I got one for my wife & one for my kid, we enjoyed in the water for close to 2 hours. Then started from there by 4:30 PM.

Yana rocks Nature Adventure:

When looked at google maps, Yana rocks was only 3.5 kms from Vibuthi falls, hence decided to see that also. Went as per the direction of google maps, just 2 kms before the destination, saw lot of vehicles parked on both sides of the road. Enquired what is there to see here, one of the tourist said, we have to park our vehicle here & take a jeep ride to get to Yana rocks. So we parked our vehicle & took a jeep ride to the entrance point. That rocks is further 600 meters down trek from the jeep drop point. We saw a huge crowd waiting to come back we get down from the jeep. It was around 5.30 PM. We walked & saw the two giant rocks which are 120 Meters & 90 Meters high monolithic structures. Under the 120 M rock, there is a small cave in which there is shiva temple, we visited it & trekked around the rock. Yana Rocks cannot be explained in words or captured in any cameras. It can only be felt by going there. It was almost 6.30 PM & we could see only few people coming behind us in the temple. Since it was almost getting dark, we walked faster to the jeep drop point, but there was nobody waiting there & no jeeps were there. we didn't know if there would be any jeep which will come back to pick us back for the parking lot, as there was nobody for company, we (I, my wife & 2 kids) (My mom & in law stayed in the car itself) started to walk those 2 Kms before the forest is completely dark. We were literally running out of fear, luckily we saw a jeep coming towards us, stopped it & got inside of it. It went till the temple this time & picked all the guys who were there & reached parking lot by 7 PM. There were only 2 vehicles excluding ours.

Yana Rocks to Gokarna (48 Kms - 1:15 hrs)

We started immediately after reaching our parking lot, unfortunately our google maps did not work, we came out of that road & got stuck there, not knowing to take either left or right. One car came from the parking lot & i asked them direction for Gokarna, they asked me to take left. I followed them until the next junction, where they stopped and asked for Gokarna route to some folks. I followed them & reached Gokarna safely by 8.30 PM. Went to temple, my family had a good darshan as i was not allowed inside for not wearing a dhoti. We went to Gokarna main beach after dinner. We started to search for accomodation at 9.30 PM. Found a decent room near temple car & retired for the day at 10:30 PM.

Day 7 Wed 29th Dec, 2021 Om Beach to Goa

I had no knowledge about Sri Mahabaleshwara & Maha ganapathi temples before visiting this place, my mom said one of the Gurukkal explained to her in Tamil about its significance inside temple last night, hence I googled to find out more about this temple, this is called as Dhakshina Kashi, it is the only Aatmalinga on earth, there is a mahaganapathi temple next to this temple, in which lord ganasha is in standing position as a small kid (Neve seen Lord Ganasha like this before, please Google yourself to know the entire Story about this temple..(In short, Ravana got Aatmalinga from Lord Shiva after thapas with a condition that once it is kept on earth, it cannot be moved & he was taking it to Lanka, Lord Ganesha came as a kid & deceived him, & placed it there, Ravanaa was not able to lift it afterwards) had breakfast in nearby restaurant. Went to Om beach which is 7 Kms from Main beach. We played in waters there, beach was good. Came back to our room, vacated the room by Noon, had a good lunch at temple, then started to Goa. We reached Vasco da gama - Baini beach by 5.30 PM, saw sunset from there, great view, my kids played in beach sand, had some snacks, started to Panjim. We reached Panjim by 8.30 PM, drove along the road where there are lot of criuses & casinos. Saw it from our car & went to Miramar beach & spent some time there. We started to Calangute beach from there, we had dinner at a restaurant & reached Candolin beach by 11:30 PM, we started our search for room there, but we could not find for next 1.5 hours. Finally at 1 AM we found an accomodation & retired there for the day.

Day 8 Thr 30th Dec, 2021 Calangute beach, Goa cruise

Started at 9 AM, checked out of our room, had a breakfast in near by Restaurant & went to Calangute beach, it was awesome to see the beach there. There were lot of umbrellas & chairs. we played in beach waters for couple of hours. Had our lunch there & looked for accomodation for that day. After lot of search found a good hotel, but the rates are doubled from last night stay due to New year eve. Took the accomodation near the same beach, went to Aguda fort, had a good sunset view from the Fort, then headed to Cruise ride in Panjim. Had a good view of Goa from the cruise ride. It costs Rs 400 per person for an hour ride in a cruise. There were music, dance in the AC hall in the curise. After completing it, we had a dinner in a restaurant & went back to Calangute beach. The night setting was completely different to what we witnessed during the day. Night was full of lights, candle light dinner setting facing the beach was awesome, then went to Baga beach, spent some time there & returned to room around 12.30 AM & retired for the day.

Day9 Fri 31st Dec, 2021 Goa to Banglore (610 Kms - 12 Hours)

We checked out from our hotel by 10 AM, had breakfast on the way & started our trip back by 11 AM. We drove for next 3.5 hours, mostly on the Ghat area, full of forest & took a break, hand lunch & quick power nap for 30 minutes in a road side shop. Resume our drive back again at 3.30 PM, & had our next stop at gas station for 15 mins. Then we continued till 8: PM & had our dinner break. Then we reached banglore by 11 PM & retired for the day.

Day 10 Sat 1st Jan, 2022 Banglore to Chennai (350 Kms - 6.5 hours)

After having a good rest for a day, we started from banglore by 5 PM. Drove all the way till 9:30 PM, had our only break for dinner, then reached our home by 11:15 PM.

Conclusion:

Though we could not cover all the planned places (like Dudhsagar falls, Hornadu, kaapu beach), we covered some unplanned places like Yana Rocks, Dharmasthala, Cruise. At the end, it was a very pleasant & memorable trip.

The temple is dedicated to Goddess Adishakti who is worshipped in the form of ‘Linga’ (symbolic holy rock) and called as Shri Durga Parameshwari.

According to ancient history, Demon Arunasura was committing atrocities on sages and petrifying the Devas due to the boon he had received from Lord Brahma that no two-legged or four-legged animals can kill him. Sage Jabali prayed to Goddess Adishakti to get rid of the Earth from the Demon.

Goddess Adishakti accepted his request and took the avatar of a beautiful woman and came in front of Arunasura. When the demon came near to woman, she told him who she really was and that she has come to free the world from his atrocities and disappeared to a rock structure. Getting to know the truth, the demon got enraged and cut the rock structure with his sword. Soon a swarm of bees emerged from the rock and stung the demon till his death.

Also to get rid of the drought in the area, Sage Jabali requested Kamdhenu, the divine Cow to help him but as Kamdhenu had gone to Varunaloka he asked her daughter Nandini to go with the Sage. When Nandini repeatedly refused, the Sage got enraged and cursed her to become a river. Hence, the river now flows around the temple.

The other deities worshipped here are Lord Sashtara or Lord Ayyappa, Lord Ganesha, Lord Brahma and Chamundi Devi. The temple provides Annadhana (free meals) twice in a day to all visiting devotees. Yakshagana, a traditional folk dance of Karnataka is an important festival celebrated here.

Kurinjal Peak Trek - Kuduremukh National Park .

Kurinjal is a lesser-known peak in the Kuduremukh National Park, that acts as the perfect destination for people seeking a respite from the fast-paced and stressful city life. The trekking trail abounds in a mesmerizing natural beauty that is further enhanced by the calm and peaceful ambiance of the region. Undertaking the trek transports the participants to another world, where the noise and pollution of the concrete jungles are replaced by the picturesque surroundings, a breathtaking landscape, and enchanting environment. As raw nature unravels itself at every step of Kurinjal trek, it tickles the drowsy nerves of the participants and makes them feel truly alive besides redefining their concept of beauty and satisfaction.

Monsoon is the best season to experience Green Carpet mountains

Since camping is not allowed on the peak and only 50 of them are allowed in a day, we had to trek and come back to the homestay on the same day, so we had to trek around 16 Km on Day1 and Day 2 was relaxing and local site seeing. Other places that we visited include Kuduremukh Trek base camp, Somavathi waterfall, Kalasa temple, Hornadu temple, Tea Estate and a hanging bridge.

Chikmagalur's temples

Kalasa

Kalasa is a sacred temple town and taluk in Karnataka's Chikkamagaluru district. Kalasa is derived from the Sanskrit word Kalasha, which meaning jug or waterpot. Kalasa's origins can be traced back to Greek mythology. The Kalaseshwara Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is located in Kalasa.

The town of Kalasa is located at an altitude of 807 meters above sea level. There are several legends that surround this location. The most well-known is related with Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi's marriage. Because of the presence of all Gods and Goddesses, legend has it that Lord Shiva and Parvathi's wedding in the Himalayas created some irregularity and strain in the Earth's rotation.

To restore the balance, Lord Shiva asked sage Agastya to journey south. Lord Shiva promised to provide Sage Agasthya a divine vision of the wedding when he expressed his desire to witness it. Agasthya is thought to have migrated south and settled in Kalasa. He observed the wedding from there, and locals believe that a pilgrimage to Kalasa is good for the spirit.

Every year, the Girija Kalyana is held in Kalasa's temple to honor this heritage. The Santara or Bhairarasa dynasty is also linked to the history of this region. Santara or Bhairarasa is a Karnataka governing dynasty from the Middle Ages.

Hornadu

Hornadu is a village in the Mudigere taluk of Karnataka's Chikmagalur district. Horanadu sits at an altitude of 831 meters above sea level. Annapoorneshwari Temple is well-known in the area. Annapoorna is a combination of two words: Anna, which means grains or food, and Poorna, which means perfect and complete. As a result, Annapoorna refers to a complete or ideal meal.

The Adhishakthyathmaka Sri Annapoorneshwari Temple in Hornadu is well-known. Annapoorneshwari's literal meaning is "feeding one and all," therefore everybody who visits the temple is given food and shelter. Sri Kshetra Horanadu Temple is another name for it. The temple is located on the banks of the picturesque River Bhadra and is surrounded by lush woods and valleys of the Western Ghats.

This location, like every other holy and ancient site, is surrounded by legends and myths. According to legend, Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati had a quarrel. Everything on Earth, including food, is an illusion, according to Lord Shiva. Parvati vanished from the universe to prove that he was the wrong Goddess, causing nature to become imbalanced and still. Climates did not alter, and plants did not grow, resulting in a global famine.

Goddess Parvathi reappeared, taking pity on the world's and living beings' plights, and distributed sustenance to all. Since then, she has been referred to as Devi Annapoorna.

Chikmagalur is also known for its delicacy and local food. Chikmagalur's local cuisine is known as "Malanadu" cuisine. It's full of diverse spices and flavors. Two of the restaurant's signature dishes are Akki Roti and Kakadu.

Rice and fish curry are the town's primary foods, and Nendranga chips, or banana chips, are popular among locals and tourists alike. In Chikmagalur, coffee is a must-try.

Chikamagalur provides something for everyone. It is a fantasy land and a traveler's delight. It's practically hard to compile a list of the top locations to visit in Chikmagalur or the best attractions in Chikmagalur. It is a lush green spectacular heaven, and travelers frequently return to this lovely spot to get away from their busy, mundane life. Chikmagalur's magic is this.
