Akka Mahadevi Caves have naturally formed caves above Krishna River in the Nallamalla forest.

Situated around 10 km from Mallikarjuna Swamy Temple the best way to reach these caves is through the motorboat from Pathala Ganga.

Named after Akka Mahadevi who offered penance to the Shiva linga which is naturally formed at the end of the cave, these are narrow caves which have little light & very less oxygen towards the end of the cave.
