Mandalpatti Viewpoint, also known as Mugilu-Peth or Mugilpete, is a mesmerizing vista in the Western Ghats situated at an altitude of about 1600 meters above sea level. Located at a distance of approximately 25-30 kilometers from Madikeri in Coorg, Karnataka, India, this viewpoint offers a panoramic view of the lush green hills and valleys that dominate the landscape. The journey to Mandalpatti is an adventure in itself, with a winding and rugged road leading up to the peak, which is most often traversed via jeep due to the rough terrain. Visitors to Mandalpatti can indulge in activities such as trekking and jeep safaris to explore the surrounding Shola forests. The location spells tranquility and is an ideal spot for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts. The viewpoint is often enveloped in light mist, which enhances its ethereal beauty. The government has taken steps to preserve the natural beauty of Mandalpatti by restricting the development of commercial establishments in the area.
