Coorg or Kodagu: The tiny district
in the state of Karnataka is an astonishing land in the heart of the
southern Indian peninsula. It is bordered by Dakshina Kannada to the
northwest, Hassan District to the north, Mysore District to the east,
Kannur District of Kerala state to the southwest and Wayanad district of
Kerala to the south. The district headquarters is located at Madikeri.
The lowest elevation is 900m above sea-level. The highest peak,
Tadiandamol, has an altitude of 1,750m; Pushpagiri is 1,715m high. The
principal river is the Kaveri River (Cauvery), which rises at Talakaveri
on the eastern side of the Western Ghats, and with its tributaries
drains the greater part of Kodagu.

Best time to Visit Coorg:

ideal months to visit Coorg when the weather is pleasant. The South-West
monsoon sets over the hills in June and the monsoon lasts for three to
four months.

Coorg, a landlocked country, is not connected by Train or Air. It
should be noted that Coorg is only a name of the district and there is

guarded resort is to motor down from Mysore, Mangalore or Hassan towns,
all in the state of Karnataka or from Cannanore or Tellicherry in Kerala
state.
