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.
