Coorg — Coffee plantations under morning mist in Coorg

Coorg

Coffee estates, misty valleys and waterfalls — Karnataka's favourite two-night escape from Bengaluru.

About Coorg

Region

Best time
October to March
Ideal duration
2 – 3 days

Coorg — Kodagu — is coffee country: plantation stays, waterfalls and misty ghats within a comfortable drive of Bengaluru or Mysuru.

Roads inside the district are narrow and steep in places, so we recommend an SUV or a tempo traveller with a driver used to the ghat sections.
