Brahmagiri Wildlife Sanctuary, Protected wildlife sanctuary in Kodagu District, Karnataka, India
The sanctuary spans 181 square kilometers within the Western Ghats mountain range, featuring tropical evergreen forests, semi-evergreen forests, and grasslands with shola vegetation.
The Karnataka Forest Department established this sanctuary in 1974 to protect the local ecosystem and prevent deforestation in the Western Ghats region.
The sanctuary takes its name from Brahmagiri Peak, a significant natural landmark that rises to 1,600 meters above sea level in this section of Karnataka.
Visitors can obtain permits and hire guides at the Srimangala Range Office, located 8 kilometers east of Irpu, to explore the designated trekking paths.
The sanctuary functions as an elephant corridor connecting Nagarhole and Wayanad sanctuaries, supporting the movement of Indian elephants through protected territories.
