The area is covered by thick rain forests, evergreen, and populated by wild animals. The last settlement, called Kuchur, is around 1500 feet above sea level. Korth Baill is the highest, and last point of village Kabbinale. It can be reached from Hebri via Mudraadi or Bachappu or Ajekar via Munniyal. Kabbinale village has been included into the Kuduremukha National Park Project and local people of several villages are opposing the Government's move to declare the villages, including Kabbiale, as tiger reserve.[1] The highest settlement is Kuchoor.

Kuchoor

In Kuchoor there exists a palace.the palace is in ruins. Only a small part of it can be seen today. The royal palace has a history of approximately 300 to 500 years. The reason for setting at such a height maybe due to forced caste conversions. They established a huge palace. It had entrance at had at north and a huge gate.

The palace can be considered a traditional chauki house, that is, the centre of this house is courtyard open to the sky surrounded by rooms on all side. Each family was given a set of rooms. The palace consisted of three wings. The first wing had a durbar hall and a temple for the family deity. The second wing had a jaggery making unit and guest rooms. The third one was exclusively for the women.

The members of this family are said to be the relatives of the Mysore Waadiyar. There is some belief that the people's ancestors belonged to the Vijayanagara Empire.

Raja Narasimha Hebbar had built a school for their children in 1952. He had also established a school at Muniyal in 1914. He had also donated Rs.10,000(equivalent to ten lakhs approximately) for the construction of Hebri High-school. The school established in 1952, was inauguruated by the district collector of Dakshina Kannada District A.C Humbalaya. For his lunch a huge 14 feet table had been made of single tree.

Hindu festivals like Navartri, Ganesh chatuthi and many more are celebrated. The Tulu Nadu tradition of devil worship is also practiced here. Here, the devil is Marlu Jumadi.
