Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider visiting Masinagudi Wildlife Sanctuary where you can spot tigers, panthers, and elephants. Alternatively, you can explore Yelagiri Hills, a peaceful and quiet place known for its picturesque scenery. If you have less time, try visiting one or two locations instead of all three to enjoy it fully.
