Hill ranges. The dilapidated walls of Tipu's fort can be found today on steep

There are 2
caves, one starts from the base and as per locals, leads to the temple at peak
and another one is somewhere midway which is about 30 feet only. Both are yet
unexplored, especially the first one. Local say that there are pythons in the
caves and had galloped their goats at times. Supposedly, there are 6 Samadhi in
that cave..
