The Nallamalas (Telugu: నల్లమల్ల కొండలు) (also called the Nallamalla Range) are a section of the Eastern Ghats which stretch primarily over Kurnool,Guntur, Prakasam,Kadapa and Chittoor districts of the state of Andhra Pradesh and Mahabubnagar,Nalgonda districts of the state of Telangana India. They run in a nearly north-south alignment, parallel to the Coromandel Coast for close to 430 km between the rivers, Krishna and Pennar. Its northern boundaries are marked by the flat Palnadu basin while in the south it merges with the Tirupati hills. An extremely old system, the hills have been extensively weathered and eroded over the years. The average elevation today is about 520 m which reaches 1100 m at Bhairani Konda and 1048 m at Gundla Brahmeswara. Both of these peaks are in a north westerly direction from the town of Cumbum. There are also many other peaks above 800 m. Over a period of History conjoining all the Four present states of Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, a legend survives that "Nallamalla" is a treasure trove in the region. The Legend continues to a large extent, since some of the tribes living within Nallamalla have practically refused to take up civil living and are hostile towards a non-tribals or rival tribals, and also because these ranges are largely unexplored and stay unexplored even till date. The difficulty of finding in this terrain is made more clear that even with sophisticated finding equipments, the Late Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh lay dead and unfound for more than 24 hours in the helicopter crash that killed him.
