Biligiri Rangaswamy Temple (BRT) Tiger Reserve

Beta

Also known as Biligiri Ranganatha Temple Tiger Reserve

BRT sits where the Eastern and Western Ghats meet, a forest of rolling deciduous hills. It is good for elephant and leopard, and is managed alongside the indigenous Soliga community.

Why this place matters

The definitive ecological bridge between the Eastern and Western Ghats, defined by the successful coexistence of the Soliga tribe.

Plan your visit

Spring months provide excellent visibility across the rolling hillsides as deciduous leaves drop.
