Anthargange in the DayAdventure and
Spiritualism
Your inner consciousness of spirituality, for that is the meaning
of Anthargange, will come alive in its hilly terrain. The sacred
waters of the Anthargange stream are worshipped by offering
obeisance to Lord Vishnu. The natural caves, created byvolcanic activity, offer immense opportunity for thrilling
exploration; caves so narrow that enthusiasts will be left
wondering whether they will succeed in extricating themselves
from the narrow openings filtering daylight through at the
distant end. The dense forests surrounding the cave and the
presence of wildlife add to the spine-tingling experience. Theadded attractions are a chance to marvel at the architecture of
ancient temples, mingle with the residents of villages atop the
peak, and enjoy the natural spring waters and, for the brave-
heated, there is rock climbing and rappelling using carabineer
and descender. All these activities are packed into the 12 hours
from early morning to early evening.
