The Melagiri Hills are a forested range of hills located between the Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri districts of Tamil Nadu, near the Cauvery River bordering Karnataka. The terrain features dry deciduous and semi-evergreen forests with elevations ranging from about 635 to 1,390 meters, with the peak of Gutherayan being the highest point.
This region is important for wildlife, serving as a corridor for elephants and connecting several protected areas, including Bannerghatta National Park and Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary. The hills host a rich variety of flora including rare trees like Shorea roxburghii and diverse fauna such as elephants, leopards, and various bird species.
Melagiri is also known for trekking and nature observation opportunities, with several rivers flowing through the area contributing to its diverse ecosystem. The forest is ecologically significant for its blend of the Western and Eastern Ghats biodiversity.
