The Temple is located in one of the highest peak of Yelagiri Hills. The Presiding Deity is Lord Murugan. The highlight of the Temple is that Lord Murugan & Valli take the form of Kuravan & Kurathi respectively. It is a private Temple and Mr.Nasi and his family members are maintaining it. The Temple was constructed in the year 1964. The hilltop Murugan Temple could be reached by a motorable road and footsteps too. At the starting point of this road is an exclusive shrine of Baktha Anjaneyar. The Peacock and Bali Peedam here is carved out of a single rock. All the Shrines have metallic roofing. There is a Shrine for Lord Ganesh and Navagraham is also found. A statue of Gadothgajan in standing posture is an attraction here. The entire flooring is cemented and there are steel railing on all four sides. A Spear / Vel is kept on top of the main Sanctum. The Temple Priest Mr.Vel is one of the family members of Mr.Nasi.
