"Jain Basadi in Forest" its a jain temple, and very good place in forest. you have to take permission to enter the premises as it comes under KPTCL and Gerusoppa dam, so its restricted area, from entrence you have to cross the dam sight very nice scene, and go along with river for 2 kms, in a narrow road, A jwalamalini temple and Chaturmukhi Basadi (four side door) is there. no facilities here, may get food by request at priest house.very nice premises can enjoy the beauty of nature.

Very ancient temple dedicated to Lord Venkateshwara. Located 23 kms from Sirsi. Temple closes at about 1pm in the afternoon and reopens only by 4pm so please ensure you either reach before or after. 1pm onwards clean anna prasad is served to all who visit the temple. The diety is supposed to be a "udbhava murty" and a great Saint during the 9th century was gifted this due to his meditational powers. Some say this is the moola vigraha meaning the one and only source of the form of the Lord and all other deities were cloned from this form including the one at Tirupati. On the day of Manjuguni rathotsava sometime near Ugadi festival the main temple in Tirumala is closed and believed that venkateshwara will visit this template on that day. Must visit. Beautiful temple well maintained and very clean. Must visit and you will love this place surrounded by greenery.

If you visit Sirsi, you cannot afford to miss this old temple dating back to 1688. Durga in the form of Doddamma.She has 8 shoulders. They used to sacrifice a buffalo here till Mahatma Gandhi led a movement against it. The bi annual Jatra is attended by phenomenal crowds. The outside facade is new and reminds one of the Goan temples. But inside is still the old construction. You can tickets for the puja before you go inside. It is crowded inside. Outside there is a smaller temple where once you pray you are not supposed to look back.

Syntheri Rocks is situated right inside the Kali Tiger Reserve (earlier known as Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary). Sight seeing tours are arranged from Dandeli from where you can hire a cab or drive your vehicle to the site. One has to take forest entry permit by paying entry fees for tourists and the vehicle at the forest entry gate. One has to climb down app 200-250 stairs from the car park to the site. Specimens of different type of rocks of geologic importance are displayed on the side of the stair pathway that leads to the syntheri rock site. Definitely a difference kind of spot which will intrigue ppl having interests in geology and science.
