Yana is also the cleanest village in Karnataka and one of the wettest villages in the state. The unique rock formation is easily approachable after a short trek through dense, green forests. Below the Bhairaveshwara Shikhara is a cave temple with a self-manifested linga. The caves of Yana are worth a visit. They share a close proximity to the Sahyadri Range and are about 3 meters in depth. The caves contain a special element – a self-made Shiv Ling that is present in the Gangodbhava Temple. Yana caves can be accessed during the trek and showcase beautiful hills and waterfalls from the access points. #karnatakaforest #karnatakatourismboard #karnatakaworld #wildkarnataka #explorekarnataka #karnatakaphotography #createyourstory #natgeoadventures #karnatakatourism #karnatakaphotographers #karnataka_ig #travelkarnataka #theglobewanderer #landscapephotos #landscapeporn #landscapehunters #wonderfulglobe #landscapephotography #landscapephotographer #landscapehunter #landscapelover #folkgood #yourshotphotographer #passionpassport #agameoftones #letsgosomewhere #artofvisuals #waterfallphotography #waterfalls (at Yana Caves) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMnJzxFgHAB/?igshid=1528ab0w9rpvf

The 1st view of the majestic caves. Makes you spellbound. Yana is one of the wettest villages in the world and it is cleanest village in Karnataka and second cleanest village in India. The two unique rock outcrops near the village are a tourist attraction and easily approachable by a small trek through 0.5 kilometers (0.31 mi) of thick forests from the nearest road head. Yana is famous for these two massive rock outcrops known as the Bhairaveshwara Shikhara and the Mohini Shikhara ("Shikhara" means "hill"). The huge rocks are composed of solid black, crystalline karst limestone. Bhairaveshwara Shikhara is 120 meters (390 ft) in height, while the Mohini Shikhara, which is smaller, is 90 meters (300 ft) in height. Yana is also well known as a pilgrimage center because of the cave temple below the Bhairaveshwara Shikhara where a Swayambhu ("self manifested", or "that which is created by its own accord") linga has been formed. Water drips from the roof over the linga, adding to the sanctity of the place. #karnatakaforest #karnatakatourismboard #karnatakaworld #wildkarnataka #explorekarnataka #karnatakaphotography #createyourstory #natgeoadventures #karnatakatourism #karnatakaphotographers #karnataka_ig #travelkarnataka #theglobewanderer #landscapephotos #landscapeporn #landscapehunters #wonderfulglobe #landscapephotography #landscapephotographer #landscapehunter #landscapelover #folkgood #yourshotphotographer #passionpassport #agameoftones #letsgosomewhere #artofvisuals #waterfallphotography #waterfalls (at Yana Caves) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMnHUwSgGLg/?igshid=12zxlitfolof6

Devarhole is part of the Shalmala river which originates near Sirsi. It is about 12 kms from Sirsi. The spot is amidst lush green forests of Sahyadri and there are carvings of lingas, Durga, Vishnu, Anjaneya and other deities along the banks of the river. Thousands of pilgrims and devotees visit Devarhole on the occasion of Shivaratri. Some of them are said to belong to the period of Swadi kings who ruled the region during the 16th and 17th century AD. #karnatakaforest #karnatakatourismboard #karnatakaworld #wildkarnataka #explorekarnataka #karnatakaphotography #createyourstory #natgeoadventures #karnatakatourism #karnatakaphotographers #karnataka_ig #travelkarnataka #theglobewanderer #landscapephotos #landscapeporn #landscapehunters #wonderfulglobe #landscapephotography #landscapephotographer #landscapehunter #landscapelover #folkgood #yourshotphotographer #passionpassport #agameoftones #letsgosomewhere #artofvisuals #waterfallphotography #waterfalls (at Devarahonnali) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMH545mgYAR/?igshid=w4ictcsfw5b7
