DO VISIT HORSLEY HILLS TO WITNESS THE HIGH LEVEL OF SCENIC BEAUTY

   

   




A fast-growing city at the center of an agricultural region noted for agricultural products such as tomato, mango, groundnut, tamarind, etc., Mainly the TOMATO market in Madanapalle is the biggest tomato market in Andhra Pradesh.

Madanapalle is the nearest railway station, located just 27 km from Horsley Hills.

Also called as Yenugulla Mallamma Konda, this place is home to the largest Banyan tree and the oldest Eucalyptus Tree, it is lined with dense forest areas with 113 species of birds.

The hilly outcrop rises steeply to altitudes of 4,000ft, which ensures cool climes throughout the year and misty vistas in the monsoons. Horsley Hills was initially known as Yenugu Mallama Konda after a young girl who, it is said, was reared by elephants and cured the ailments of the area and its residents.

The Horsley Hills are popular among local tourists who go to see their natural beauty and to escape from the heat of the plains. The Mallamma temple is another major tourist and pilgrim centre.

Located about 127 km away from Tirupati, Horsley Hills are named after WH Horsley, who was the collector of Kapada, between 1863-1867. It is said that he was in awe of the place and made a summer bungalow, which is now called the Forest Bungalow. The house is a beautiful structure made with tiles imported from England.

 Horsley Ghats – A road connects Horsley Hills, a hill station in Chittoor district, with Madanapalle, the nearest town. It has 12 hairpin bends.

 Winters in Horsley slopes begin in December and last till February. Horsley Hills' weather during these months and the temperature goes between an agreeable 10°C to 22°C. This is also the best time to visit Horsley Hills. June represents the start of Monsoon season in Horsley Hills, which lasts until September.

It's doable in one day, but I'd recommend a weekend trip with a one-night stay. Not only will you get enough time to rest but also have the time to explore other places around Horsley Hills.
