Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta (hill) is a lofty hill in picturesque surroundings, situated about 16 km south-west of Gundlupet. It rises to a height of 4,770 feet above sea level. It has also been referred to as Dakshina Govardhanagiri. The summit of the hill appears to be enveloped by clouds
and mist, and hence the name Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta (Himavad means covered in mist). An old fort on the hill said to have been constructed during the 13th century. Inside the fort is the Gopalaswamy Temple dedicated to Lord Krishna. The gopuram of the temple is single-tiered and rests on the compound wall of the enclosure. The parapet wall of the facade of the mukha mantapa contains the sculpture of dashavatara (the avatars of the Lord Vishnu). The garbhagriha contains an idol of Lord Krishna playing the flute under a tree. The idol of Lord Krishna is beautifully sculpted with the left toe resting on the right one.
