Coorg - Beyond Believe
You
would think that a travel agent dreamed of 'Coorg'. Just fantasize this
1,293 square miles of undulating topography carpeted in just about every
shade of green possible, wreathed over by a gauzy stole of thin white mist.
Bamboo, sandalwood, rosewood forests. Apiaries making heavenly honey.
Murmuring streams and rivulets, children of the mighty Cauvery, herself born
within this realm, wending her way swiftly at times, languorously at others,
through her lands. Waterfalls, deep ravines, paddy fields, sloping glades,
grassy downs, coffee bushes studded with red berries. Pepper, Cardamoms,
oranges, nutmeg, turmeric, lemon grass...a land fecund beyond believe. Wild
beastes and a martial race of men and women who compel a second and even
third glance with their chiseled profiles, stately bearing the striking
dress. All to watch.....
One of the South's best kept secret Coorg was discovered by honeymooners and trekkers. In a trekker's wake came the families who wanted to recharge their holiday and soon it became a backpackers paradise. The best thing to do at Coorg is to take a Vehicle and drive through is leisurely pace, stopping every now and then to smell the coffee scented air. Wait and watch the potent Coorg ready to spill the beans ....





Coorg
is a trekking paradise, so get those boots on and get moving. Up and
down hills, through coffee and pepper plantations, alongside the
graceful Cauvery and myriad little streams, whether its leisurely
rambles or a purposeful trek, it's most satisfying and great fun.
