Trek to Tadiyandmol, Coorg & Visit to Chalwara Falls - [18th - 19th Feb 2012]- Registration is on


Tadiyandmol:
TADIYANDAMOL is the highest mountain in Coorg (Mercara) Dist (1750 Mtrs. MSL). The climb to this mountain is gradient passing through grassland. If you are the type who likes to mingle with nature, savor the snow-like mist romance upon mountain slopes, feel the tingle of the cool and gentle breeze seep into your skin, watch the leaves flutter in dance-like movements, hear the sounds of chirping birds fill the air, and then Coorg is the place for you.

Kodagu is noted for its scenic beauty. Hiking, cross-country, or simply motoring down mountain trails in Coorg, the one encounter panoramic views of the morning mist rolling down thickly wooded hill slopes and the undulating paddy fields and neat rows of coffee bushes resplendent under the blue skies.

Coorg is now a flourishing agricultural center; Kodagu produces cash crops of coffee, rice, orange, pepper and cardamom. With its misty mountains and dense forests, Coorg seems like a little corner of England to the British. They left behind a legacy, which is still an important source of national wealth. The well laid coffee plantations in Coorg account for almost half of Karnataka's coffee production. And Karnataka continues to be India's largest producer of coffee. Other remainders of the colonial past are the spacious estate bungalows, many of which still have British names and the meandering roads that wind through the district.
