A photograph from August 2021 shows a memorable flowering season on Kotebetta. Its strength is specificity: one photographer, one camera point and one day in a mountain landscape that changes quickly.

What the record supports

The Commons file is the photographer’s own work and includes a camera position at 12.555343, 75.755817. That point is north of the mapped summit and should remain a camera coordinate. It cannot serve as a trailhead, parking pin or forecast of the next flowering.

How to read the place

Visit for the mountain rather than a guaranteed bloom. Do not step into vegetation for a composition, pick flowers or repeat a twelve-year claim as a precise local calendar unless a current botanical authority confirms it.

Keep Kotebetta distinct from nearby attractions. Their photographs, opening hours, permissions and facilities cannot be transferred to this site.
