The unknown and Massive Siddeshwara Betta is about 66km from Mysuru, located in Hondarbalu village. What to say Heavenly trekking place with eye soothing nature all around. One can trek via the steps or the muddy road that leads all the way to the top. You need to have a powerful bhp vehicle if you want to reach the top via muddy road. Sri Siddeshwara Swamy Sannidhi is present inside a cave temple at the top of the hill.Ancient Pacche Linga existed here, but later was taken away by archaeologist. There is a small stone structure with a small space between called Sadanekindi. It is believed that little kids who pass though this space, all their negative energy will be destroyed. Also believed that an elephant once has passed through this small space. Sri Lord Bhima has visited this place and his knee marks are visible in this place. Tiger reserve forest area, hence late night trekking or camping is restricted. Overall the hardcore trekking experience, with mesmerising nature, blessing of Sri Siddeshwara Swamy with lots of Ancient History makes this a must visit with friends and family
