Kabini dam is built across River Kabini (Kapila) near H D Kote near Mysore. It is usually the first dam to get filled in Karnataka as its main source is the Kapila River fed by the Manathavady, Panamaram, Kalindi ((Thirunelly Temple), Papanasini, Taraka(sourced by Nagarahole) rivers. As it runs mainly through the un-spoilt and dense forests of Western Ghat ranges of Kerala (Wayanad) and Karnataka (Brahmagiri), its water is mostly clear extremely soft, even during the monsoon. The river continues its divine journey down through Nanjanagudu (Sri Najundeshwara Swamy Temple) and joins River Kaveri at Thirumakudlu Narasipura (T Narasipura) and runs through the state of Tamilnadu before joining Bay of Bengal.
