A sacred summit trek above Semiliguda, with an old hill shrine on top.
Mali Parbat rises steeply above the Semiliguda plateau and is climbed as much for its shrine as its views — a walk of a few hours through forest and grassy slopes, ending at a small temple with the Eastern Ghats laid out below.
The hill is sacred to local communities, so go with a guide, keep it clean and follow their lead at the summit.
Highlights
- Sacred hill shrine
- Eastern Ghats panoramas
