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 . . .
Coorg, a land of wild forests & brave warriors, tucked away in the mist-topped hills of the Western Ghats, is known locally as Kodagu.
Coffee plantations thrive here and the stunning vistas will take your breath away.
One of the world’s biodiversity hot spots. Altitude ranges from 3000 to 6000 feet. Coffee plantations rub shoulders with rainforests, which give birth to many rivers.
