Krishnana Katte (Krishnaiahna Katte reservoir), Yelandur Taluk, Chamarajanagara, Karnataka

It was around 4:00 PM, after visiting the MMhills and BR Hills we headed towards Chamarajanagar via Yelandur to stay. Fortunately on the way we seen a small Dam called Krishnana Katte OR Krishnayyana katte, hoping to have good scenery but we were not disappointed, mountain makes a clear line around Krishnaiahna katte creating a well-balanced Ecosystem, this dam holds a few gallons of water to facilitate rural side of yelandur taluk and the forest animals. People nearby village shared that Elephants are usually seen in a herd. But we were not lucky! For the day to see one of that. Whatever this place is a sudden surprise for us to end the jolly ride day.
