It is situated in the village named Mallenahalli which is 12 Km's from Chikkamagaluru town. The village itself has many myths and stories behind it. The host told that the Giris (hills, particularly mullayanagiri, Bababudangiri, Seetalayyanagiri and Deviramana betta) gives birth to many water source which runs through their village, and that medicinal powers of the water are absorbed in the land. So it is a kind of spiritual place. And he also told that no one dies of snakebite in that village. It was evening when we reached there, we were welcomed by a warm coffee and some homemade snacks.
