Kavi Shaila:
Kavi Shaila is a rock memorial dedicated to Kuvempu built after his death. Few steps of climb (around 300) from Kavi Mane, you can find Kavi Shaila on top of a small hillock. Even, vehicles can go till the top via a different road. The memorial is built such that the huge rocks have been placed in a circle very similar to Stonehenge. His body was laid to rest at the center of this rock monument after his death. The view of western ghat is breathtaking from this point. The place is so peaceful that Kuvempu used to come, meditate, and write his works here.
