Small hilltop viewpoint overlooking the Western Ghats and the valleys around Madikeri. Photographers can capture sweeping layered ridgelines, coffee/plantation patterns, seasonal mist and dramatic clouds — especially during sunrise and monsoon. The site is reachable by car with limited parking; expect crowds at sunset and on weekends. Best visited at dawn for soft light, or after rain for saturated colors. No special entry permits required; dress for slippery paths in wet season.
