Sringeri, Kollur & Udupi Pilgrimage Group Departure

Bangalore · Sringeri · Udupi · Bangalore·
TOUR RATING
New on Evynx

Sringeri, Kollur Mookambika, Udupi Krishna Matha - Karnataka's three great shrines.

About this tour

A four-day group pilgrimage to three of Karnataka's greatest shrines, set dates and a shared coach, with nothing to arrange but your bag. It gathers the coast and the ghats into a single devotional arc. Sringeri opens it - the first of the four mathas that Adi Shankaracharya founded in the 8th century, with its Sharadamba temple and the astonishing Vidyashankara shrine, whose twelve pillars each align with the sun for a month of the zodiac. Kollur brings the Mookambika, the combined Shakti-Shiva form on a forested coastal hill, and Udupi the Sri Krishna Matha, where Kanakadasa is said to have received the god's darshan through a small window, with a walk among the eight monasteries of Car Street. A fixed-date group departure for pilgrims who want the three shrines together, without planning the route.

Highlights

  • Sringeri Sharadamba Temple - Adi Shankaracharya's first matha (8th century), group Abhishekam viewing
  • Vidyashankara Temple zodiac pillars - 12 columns each aligned with the sun for its zodiac month
  • Kollur Mookambika darshan - Shakti-Shiva combined form in a forested coastal hill setting, ropeway access
  • Sri Krishna Matha Kanakana Kindi - the window through which Kanakadasa received Krishna's darshan
  • Udupi Ashta Mathas walking tour - 8 monasteries on Car Street rotating matha management every 2 years
