The Western Ghats are higher than the Eastern Ghats.
Their average elevation is 900– 1600 metres as against 600 metres of the
Eastern Ghats. The Western Ghats cause orographic rain by facing the rain
bearing moist winds to rise along the western slopes of the Ghats. The Western
Ghats are known by different local names. The height of the Western Ghats
progressively increases from north to south. The highest peaks include the Anai
Mudi (2,695metres) and the Doda Betta (2,637 metres).
Eastern Ghats:
The Eastern Ghats stretch from the Mahanadi Valley to the Nigiris in the south.
The Eastern Ghats are discontinuous and irregular and dissected by rivers
draining into the Bay of Bengal. Mahendragiri (1,501 metres) is the highest
peak in the Eastern Ghats. Shevroy Hills and the Javadi Hills are located to
the southeast of the Eastern Ghats.
