Omkar Hills

Hello Travelers,

We were planning to visit Omkar Hills Temple and Shrungagiri Sri Shanmukha Temple since a long time. So this Saturday we decided to visit. We started at 3:30 PM and reached Omkar Hills in RR Nagar by 4:30 PM. 

It's a newly built temple and is dedicated to Lord Shiva. There are temples of other gods too. The temple is situated at an elevation. I must say RR Nagar is quiet a hilly place. The place is calm and you feel relaxed.

Good amount of parking space is available. Be ready to walk since you have lot of things to see in the Temple vicinity. Elders might find it difficult.

You need at least 1 to 1.5 Hours to relax a bit and see the temple. From here we went to Shrungagiri Sri Shanmukha Temple which is around 4 Kms.
