This
place is one
of the most beautiful picturesque and treacherous spot
which gives immorable pleasant and happiness at the
sight of tremendous water fall located there. It is of
about 36 Km from Srisailam.

sacred complex of Srisailam during medieval times
provided shelter to many secret saivaite sects who
performed their ritual acts in such inaccessible spots
such as this. Hence such places derived the name such
as Guptha meaning secret.

The
Srisaila Khanda of Skanda Purana speaks
about this place and named it as Guptha Mallikarjunam.
It is said that by mere seeing this place one can get
free off from his sins.
