Maa Mahuri kalua is the deity of the then kingdom of Mahuri garh in Ganjam district. The temple is situated in the middle of a depression between small and big mountains in the eastern ghat mountain ranges. The main temple is situated atop the hill which is accessible by only trekking not less than a thousand stairs . There is a temple also at the foothills where all the puja and rituals are observed. The place is very scenic and beautiful. The roads approaching this temple is very beautiful surrounded by lush greenery all around. The district administration has recently taken up the task of beautification of the spot and a small hill side park is being erected in front of the temple which will definitely attract much tourists to this hidden temple of the district. There is ample opportunity for picnickers here as the place is hidden below thick forest cover so people can visit this place round the year. Earlier the place was becoming empty by the evening due to its placement away from population, but the recent development will change that and I think the evening view of the garden will be a major attraction for people of the district and far to visit this place.

It is a famous shakti peeth of Ganjam district of maa Kalua. The main temple is situated in the top of the hill some steps are good but you have to go in some narrow space.

A small rest house is there for visitors. Now with the help of the Tourism Dept. of Odisha, steps have been built so that tourists can access the cave where the Goddess was earlier established.

Very serene atmosphere of the temple. But surrounding is not properly cleaned or maintained. During the season, this is a great picnic place for the people of berhampur. There is a temple at the top and also at the foot heels. The place is also known as a shaktipeeth.

The place is nice, but maintenance is ZERO. Very dirty at places, liquor bottle found near the view point. Although beautification is done at the place, but it is in a neglected condition without any maintenance. Govt should look after this issue and help to boost tourism by properly maintaining the holy place

Beautiful place with Hindu shakti with so much peaceful atmosphere

Very nice and pleasant place for those who loves nature 🏞️. You can find place for mounting and picnic .
