It is located in the Somwarpet Taluk, 20 kilometers from Somwarpet in the northern part of Kodagu district on the border between Dakshina Kannada and Kodagu district and Hassan districts. It is the fifth-highest peak in Karnataka.
The Pushpagiri or Subramanya Hills also referred to as Kumaraparvatha, are the second-highest peak of Kodagu and the fifth highest peak in Karnataka. About 36 kilometers from Somwarpet and 1.5 kilometers from Kumaralli, it is located amid the jungle. Can do trekking from the base, Bhagati, which is a 10 km, three-hour walk.
