Located on the hillock from south of Hosdurg in Kanhangad is the holy ashram built by Swami Nityananda, Nityananda Ashram. A place for relaxation, the place was part of a forest area and here Swami Nityananda constructed 43 guhas (holy caves) in a mountain slope. These caves are considered to be an engineering marvel even to this day and attract thousands of people from all over the world. There is a temple inside the ashram, built similar to the famous Lord Krishna temple in Gujarat- Somanath Temple. A full size statue of Swami Nityananda in sitting posture made of panchaloha is another attraction in the ashram.
