Gopalaswamy Hills
Hill in the Gundlupete Taluk, Karnataka, India / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta, is a hill (betta in Kannada) located in the Gundlupete Taluk, Chamarajanagar district of the state of Karnataka, India at a height of 1450m and is extensively wooded. It is also the highest peak in the Bandipur National Park. It lies in the core area of the Bandipur National Park and is frequented by wild life including elephants. Dense fog predominates and covers the hills round the year and thus gets the prefix Himavad (in the language of Kannada) and the temple of Venugopalaswamy (Krishna) gives the full name of Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta.[1]
