About Horsley Hills
Named after W. D. Horsley, the British collector who built a summer home here in the 1870s, Horsley Hills rises to 1,265 m above Madanapalle — eucalyptus, silver oak and gulmohar, an old banyan, viewpoints over the plains and a small zoo. APTDC runs the main resort; the Kaigal waterfall is 30 km away.
