Holy trek to Sathuragiri - Mahalingam Temple

Sathuragiri or Mahalingam Temple is a 'Lord Shiva' temple located in western Ghats near Srivilliputhur. 

Best way to reach is - Sri Villiputhur - Thaniparai - Sathuragiri

we should climb from Thaniparai to Sathuragiri into the forest. A really tough trekking with bare foot. It will take an average of 3 to 5 hrs to climb up and 3 to 4 hrs for climbing down. 

Temple is open for public only during Full moon day, No moon day and Pradosha days( Pournami, Amavasai and Prathosha natkal)

There are two shiva's on the top - Santhana mahalingam and Sundara Mahalingam. 

There is another interesting place above this temple called Thavasi paarai.
