Mullayyana Giri

Mullayyanagiri is located in the Chandra Dhrona Hill Ranges of the Western Ghats of Chikkamagaluru Taluk.

[1] The summit of Mullayanagiri has a small temple and houses a police radio relay station.

The peak gets its name from a small temple (gadduge/tomb) at the summit, which is dedicated to a sage "Mullappa swamy" who is believed to have meditated at the caves only a couple of feet below the summit.

Apart from multiple versions of folklore and strong Siddha culture around the belt, the origins or any information about the deity remains ambiguous.
