A Weekend Beyond the Usual

A trip that doesn't rush, from Mysore's lakes and quieter corners to hidden trails, waterfalls, local flavours and fire-lit nights in the hills of Coorg. Three days built for noticing, not just seeing.

Why This Journey

Not another checklist trip to Coorg.

This is a journey into the quieter, lesser-seen side of the hills, with a touch of Mysore's local character, followed by two immersive days at a forest-edge homestay deep in Coorg's countryside. No rushing from viewpoint to viewpoint. Just trails, local food, and a pace slow enough to actually notice where you are.

En route: Kushalnagar's Golden Temple

About The Property

Wake to mist rolling through the coffee fields before the sun does. Step outside and let the scent of coffee blossoms and spices do what alarms can't. No itinerary rush here, just a slow breakfast at the homestay, surrounded by green on every side and tucked far from the usual tourist trail. This is the place where you do nothing, and it's the one you'll remember most.
