Geographically, the region lies primarily between the upper catchments of the Godavari River and the Krishna River. It features a hilly terrain along the Sahyadri range that slopes gently eastward, drained thoroughly by the upper stretches of the Krishna, Godavari, and Bhima rivers alongside their tributaries.
