Overview

Coorg, ornated by an omnipresent layer of clouds over its low-lying hills and surrounded with coffee plantations is the place to be for any nature lover. At a distance of just about 270 km from Bangalore, the small, misty town would be the perfect getaway weekend after a tiring week.

The hill station is popular not only due to its serene topography with dancing waterfalls and streams but also due to the local culture of Kodavas, a community specializing in martial arts. They are known for their hospitality which can be witnessed in one of the innumerable ‘homestays’. The drive to the Scotland of India, Coorg is as adventurous as the town itself, with promising views of stunning mountains, cascading rivers and eye-feasting views of flora and fauna.
