About Horsley Hills

Horsley Hills is a famous Hill Station in Chittoor and also one of the best sightseeing places in Andhra Pradesh. It is situated at an altitude of 1265 meters. Earlier Horsley Hills was known as Yenugu Mallamma Konda. According to the legend, there was a little girl named Mallamma who was taken care of by the elephants. She used to heal tribals on the hills. When she disappeared, people started to believe that she was a goddess and built a temple to commemorate her. Later the place was named after W.D. Horsley, the Collector of Cuddapah district. Mesmerized by the beauty of these hills, he chose this spot as his summer residence.
