BabaBudangiri (or Bababudangiri) is the location of a small Sufi shrine in the region of Chickmagalur, Western Ghats, India.
It is devoted to the saint Baba Budan (also called Guru Dattatreya), who is revered by both Muslims and Hindus.
Its origin appears to be a syncretization of reverence for an 11th century Sufi, Dada Hayath (Abdul Azeez Macci); for the 17th century Sufi Baba Budan, said to have brought coffee to India; and for Dattatreya, an incarnation of Shiva.
It is 251 km from the state capital of Bangalore and surrounded by the BabaBudangiri hills and dense forests.
It is ringed by the BabaBudangiri range and blessed with silver cascades of mountain streams and lush vegetation.
Baba Budan Range: To the north of Chikmagalur town is the Baba Budan Range or Chandra Drona Parvatha as it was known in the ancient times, which has one of the highest mountain peaks between the Himalayas and the Nilgiris.
