Amaravathi Dam: 20 kms. from Udumalpet. The dam has been constructed just at the point where the plains become clearly discernible from the surrounding hills with narrow valleys of thick forests which abound in many wild animals including tiger, bisons and elephants. The cruise in the reservoir by motor launch presents a good scenery of forests and deep gorges. An Inspection Bungalow is available at Amaravathi Nagar near the dam site for overnight stay.
