Coorg or Kodagu with its lush verdant forest and undulating hills and dales is an ideal getaway from the mad rush of today's world. This is the land of the Kodavas; a peace loving martial race with a very unique culture. The healthy pure air combined with spectacular landscapes has earned it the sobriquet “Scotland of the South”. Amidst these lush green forests are some of the most majestic waterfalls. This nature-lover's paradise has the Nagarhole National Park which is the habitat of tigers, deer, bison and elephants.
The salubrious climate with an average of 200c is suited for cultivation of spices like cardamom and pepper. This is the home of some of the best coffees in the world. Kodagu is well connected by road to Bangalore, Managalore, Calicut and Mysore.
