Kundadri is a hill with dense forests in the Western Ghats located in Shimoga District, Karnataka State, India. It is 70 km from Udupi city. This hill is known for a 17th-century Jain temple dedicated to Parshwanath tirthankara and the place is known to have given shelter to Acharya Kundakunda during earlier centuries. The main deity of this temple is Parshwanatha, the 23rd Tirthankara. Two small ponds formed by the rock on one side of this temple provided water to earlier sages. The government of Karnataka joined hands with a philanthropist from Mumbai to construct an all-weather road to the top of the hill.

This mountain is the start of the river Sharavathi and has a famous temple on the top. According to myth, the god Rama used his bow and arrow (Ambu) to shoot the ground, in order to quenche his wife Sita's terrible thirst. As the arrow hit the ground, water started streaming out of it and formed the river that stills runs down today. It was named after the local word for arrow: shara. At the starting point of the river lies a small pond, which surrounds a famous temple for the god Rama.
