Tucked into the Western Ghats, Coorg (Kodagu) is all mist-wrapped coffee estates, spice trails and easy waterfalls — a green, restful escape a few hours from Bengaluru.

The gentle plan

Base in Madikeri, wander a working coffee plantation, chase Abbey Falls, and meet the elephants at Dubare. Don't skip the serene Golden Temple at Kushalnagar.

Good to know

It's an easy road trip, best October to March once the monsoon eases. Carry a light rain layer whatever the month, and buy your coffee straight from an estate.
