Travel tips
- Stay in a plantation homestay — often the best value, with home-cooked Coorgi meals.
- Public buses connect the main sights cheaply; share a cab only for far-flung spots.
- Don’t miss the Golden Temple at Bylakuppe and a coffee-estate walk.
- Sep–Mar is best; monsoon is lush but leech-prone on trails.
