The rain taps on your door, drips down the windows, soaks your shoulder, drums in a beautiful rhythm on your umbrella . . . the whole environment becomes soaked. The constant pitter-patter of the rain on the roof is a restful background sound for stressed souls from the cities.
Coorg has been called a great many things: Land of the brave and the beautiful. Scotland of India. Kashmir of the South. Land of generals. India’s coffee cup. . .

The terrain is covered by the mighty Western Ghat mountains. One of the world’s bio-diversity hot spots. Altitude ranges from 3000 to 6000 feet. Coffee plantations that rub shoulders with rainforests, which give birth to many rivers.
Stand on a hilltop and look down . . . you will see more shades of green than you thought possible. The mist clings to the grass, the clouds cling to the mountain tops and your eyes cling to the view.
Slip on a raincoat or carry an umbrella and go for a walk. Every few minutes the rain stops so you can enjoy standing in the gush of the tiny streams that spring up, run across the roads, and dive down the hillside.
Stay snug in bed, or sit in the verandah reading a book, or sipping countless cups of coffee (or tea). The weather broods through most of the day, like a deep and handsome poet.
The sun becomes a rare sight, it does sometimes break through the cloud cover with difficulty.
Coorg in the rains is recommended for those with poetry in their souls and romance in their blood. Those few individuals who need to ‘connect’ with themselves, Nature, the divine . . . or their creativity.
