Pushpagiri Wildlife Sanctuary, Wildlife sanctuary in Karnataka, India

The protected reserve spans 102 square kilometers of evergreen forests, shola grasslands, and mountain peaks within the Western Ghats mountain range.

The Karnataka Forest Department established this sanctuary in 1987, transforming the Kadamakal Reserved Forests into a protected wildlife zone.

The sanctuary borders Kukke Subramanya Temple, a Hindu pilgrimage site where devotees worship Lord Subramanya among natural surroundings.

Visitors can access the sanctuary between 5:30 AM and 5:00 PM daily, with entry fees of 75 rupees per person at the check post.

The sanctuary contains Kumara Parvatha, Karnataka's second-highest peak, along with six perennial streams flowing through its diverse terrain.
