Streamlined Journeys to Karnataka's Peaks: Your Guide to the New Online Toll Booking for Mullayanagiri and Inam Dattathreya Peeta
A trip to the majestic peaks of Mullayanagiri and the serene Inam Dattathreya Peeta in the Chikkamagaluru district of Karnataka is now more convenient than ever. In a move to regulate tourist flow and enhance the visitor experience, the district administration has introduced a mandatory online toll booking system. This new portal is your gateway to the breathtaking landscapes of the Chandradrona Hill Range, ensuring a hassle-free journey to these popular destinations.
Why the New Online System?
The soaring popularity of Mullayanagiri, Karnataka's highest peak, and the sacred Inam Dattathreya Peeta has often led to overcrowding, especially during peak seasons. The online toll booking system aims to address this by:

Enhancing Visitor Convenience: Pre-booking your entry pass online saves you time and eliminates the uncertainty of on-the-spot permissions. This streamlined process allows you to plan your trip with greater confidence.
Promoting Sustainable Tourism: The controlled entry helps in preserving the natural beauty and ecological balance of the region, ensuring that these pristine landscapes can be enjoyed by generations to come.
