MELMUDI Ranganathar Temple - Hindu temple in Thadagam R.F. - Coimbatore, India

Awesome Ranganathar Temple. One of the best place for trekking. Avoid polythene cover and plastics for save wild life. Walking time is 1.30 hours to 2.30 hours based on walking speed. A small water falls in there between starting point and temple (Almost 1 hour walks from entrance). Use backpack for snacks and water bottle carrying. You will get free food (Meals) at temple. Another one sivan temple also there from Melmudi. But it will take another 1 hour to reach that Sivan Temple. Enjoy yourself. Happy journey to all.

Its most beautiful place in coimbatore totally it's takes 3hour for to Trek in this hills lord ranganadhar (Vishnu) there but this place only allowed in in tamil month puratasi 5 Saturdays and free food also there in the temple highly recommended to visit this place after seeing the lord Vishnu another 1hour to Trek and see lord Shiva and that place more beautiful and sceneric .

A pleasent place to visit with friends and families. The trekking was bit hard but it's worth for it. Carry a trekking stick with you for better experience. Avoid weekdays treak only in Saturday.

Excellent place for intermediate level Trekkers! We went on the Tamil Month of Puratasi - Saturday. Took Tadagam route, There's no road to Trek start point. It's off-roading with loose sand for about ~1.5 kms. Driving on a rainy day to Trek start point will be difficult. Forest rangers checks for plastics & hazardous objects. Top of the hill where the temple is located is 'Divine' Drinking water, Tea, Prashadham (food) will be given for devotees as per temple timings There's a view point near to Perumal temple - It's Good! Due to overcast conditions, we didn't continue to Shivan temple People of all ages & gender came - No restriction. But come only if you're physically fit as there's no help in-between. Distance of Trek = 3kms one-way. ~1km plains, ~2kms steep slope. Duration to Trek: 2.5 ~ 3 hrs uphill, 2 ~2.5 hrs downhill

If you have any doubt in reaching the hills, ask the locals and they will tell the way. The trek was an awesome climbing experience,it takes an average of 2.5 hours to reach the top. There are 2 routes to climb to the top,the route from thadagam is steep and short, while the one from palamalai is a little long but filled with beautiful views and a bit easier. There are stay facilities available on the top, so if you wish,you can go for it,Food will be provided by the people of the temple. If you go to the top ,make sure you visit the sivan malai and bangala medu. When it starts raining, climbing and descending becomes difficult, so make sure to check out the weather. Would highly recommend for those who love trekking. Only open to the common public on the Tamil month purattasi saturdays.

Trekking takes 2-3 hrs to go up Food might be provided but not always Saturdays are best Bikers be aware of off-road when nearing the starting point View points are great If you want to go for the second temple start the trekking by 8 am

It was an almost 3hrs trek to reach Melmudi Ranganathar temple. Beautiful place . We climbed from palamalai road . It's open, on all puratsai Saturday's. It's was an beautiful experience to be connected to nature. Please avoid plastics. Let the forest be a forest .
