Abbey Falls, Madikeri Fort and Raja's Seat Sunset
A full day through Coorg's classic town-circuit sights - a working-estate waterfall, the Haleri-Tipu era fort, and the ridge garden with Madikeri's best sunset view.
Dubare Elephant Camp, Nisargadhama, Bylakuppe and a Coffee Estate
A wildlife-and-heritage loop east of Madikeri - a Forest Department elephant session, a rope-bridge river island, India's largest Tibetan monastery, and a coffee estate on the drive home.
Nalaknad Palace Ruins and Chelavara Falls
An offbeat day into Coorg's quieter interior - a 16th-century royal ruin on the Tadiandamol grassland and a little-visited two-stage waterfall near Virajpet, closing the circuit.
