Overview
Dedicated to the goddess of nourishment, Sri Annapoorneshwari Temple in Hornadu is a sacred destination for devotees and spiritual seekers. Though not exactly in Agumbe, it is frequently visited as part of a larger Malnad pilgrimage trail and is easily accessible from Agumbe via Sringeri.
The temple is known for its peaceful riverside location and traditional architecture. Devotees are served free prasadam meals prepared hygienically, living up to the deity’s essence of sustenance. The statue of Annapoorneshwari is adorned with gold and seated in a blessing posture.
To sum up
Visitors are welcomed with warmth, and the temple’s tranquil setting in the Western Ghats makes it not only spiritually enriching but also visually soothing.
