A Brief Travel Guide to Kemmanagundi
Nestled in the Baba Budangiri range of the Western Ghats, Kemmanagundi is a picturesque and serene hill station with lush greenery and a pleasant climate throughout the year.
Its name is a combination of three local words – kempu (red), mannu (soil) and gundi (pit) – and means a place with red soil.
It is located in the Tarikere taluk of Chikkamagaluru district in Karnataka, and is famous for its scenic beauty, ornamental gardens, ancient temples and stunning mountain views.
Historical Significance
Kemmanagundi holds historical significance as it was once the summer retreat of the renowned ruler Krishnaraja Wodeyar IV, and is often referred to as Sri Krishnarajendra Hill Station in his honour.
He later donated this beautiful hill station to the Government of Karnataka.
The influence of the royal heritage is still evident in the well-preserved gardens and colonial bungalows dotting the landscape.
With its rich history and royal connection, Kemmanagundi attracts visitors from all over the world.

Surrounded by dense forests, coffee plantations, beautiful waterfalls, and lush topography, it is situated at a height of 1434 metres (4705 feet) above sea level, with its highest peak – Mullayanagiri – reaching 1863 metres (6119 feet).
The Best Time to Visit Kemmanagundi
The perfect time to visit Kemmanagundi is from September to March when the weather is pleasant and favourable for outdoor activities. The temperature ranges from 12°C to 28°C during these months.
Monsoon months (June to August) are also a popular time to visit as waterfalls are in full swing. One, however, needs to take caution during trekking as the slopes tend to be slippery during the rainy season.
