A relaxing holiday

Post by Swapna | Cochin | May 13, 2011

We made a taxi (Ambassador) trip from Mysore, after arriving there by Volvo from Bangalore. Breaking up the journey this way made it more comfortable. The roads are not in the best of condition, and I'm not sure how they will come through the monsoons. Try and get a driver who's steady rather than speedy, that reduces the feeling of sickness on the few weaving stretches. Any taxi you hire to get to Coorg will charge you for a return trip, which might work out economical if you spend only a couple of days there and use the same taxi to get back as well as sightseeing there. We had a leisurely 4+ day holiday, so we had to pay for two return trips. But then it's a tradeoff between the comfort of a car/the economy and speed of a bus. The actual sightseeing trips in the district are charged per destination rather than time or distance from where you are staying.

Planned trip to Coorg

Travelling by buses to reach Coorg or probably by hiring a Car will be one of the best options. There are couple of buses which go to Coorg and the travel itself has its own meaning as you get an opportunity to view the beautiful valley. Avoid riding a 2 wheeler in monsoon as its not favourabe. Also while walking in dense forests please avoid lonely places

Bliss!!

I have traveled to Coorg from Bangalore. I've traveled by bike, by car as well as by public transport. You need to have your own transport within Coorg. There is hardly any transport system there. So if you're going there using public transport, hire a vehicle to travel within Coorg. If you are travelling from Bangalore to Coorg on your own, the roads are fantastic all the way to Kushalnagar, thats if you are going to the Golden Temple first. I suggest you do that. You get to see the whole of Coorg this way. But you're the traveler. Make your own way and you will see and experience things nobody else has ever seen or experienced. Venturing out to certain places when its dark is not recommended. People in Coorg believe a lot in traditions and the existence of spirits. Many people have experienced it. Unless you too want to experience it, stay indoors. Although I've stayed out and never experienced it, people might feel you are disrespecting the spirits of the past. So you might want to avoid that. Apart from that, you really have nothing else to worry about. Just get to Coorg and experience BLISS!!

The best way is taking a bus from Mysore via Kushalnagar. The roads are also ok in this route. Try not to reach too early in the morning or late at night, unless you have a vehicle, or some one to pick you up there, because before 6 in the morning and after 9 or 10 in the evening, this place is so deserted.
