Short Trip to Coorg
Saturday afternoon decided to drive to Coorg. Though it was more of official trip, turned into a holiday / official trip with my wife. Destination was to see Porcupine Castle – A new resort on the hills of Polibetta, Coorg.
Started from Tyagaraj Nagar, Bangalore by 2 pm. Zipped on Mysore road till Srirangapattana, but road Srirangapattana to Hunsur road junction was horrible with unwanted humps. This got compensated by next stretch of road.
But again, once you take deviation towards Periaptna from Mysore – Madikeri road, road is very average with few pot (man) wholes. However, we reached Porcupine in just 5 hrs crossing Gonikoppa & Polibetta.
Warm hospitality & hot pacodas helped us to let off our tiredness. As it was already dark, we just slept off early. Cottages were nice with at most privacy.
Next day, after early bed tea, we had a enjoyable walk around the resort premises – memorable experience, on the misty mountain…
After breakfast, we enjoyed some time on the tree house too. Later left the resort towards Madikeri town.
Things I liked – Drive in my Alto, resort ambience, plantation & nature around.
Things I didn’t like – Trip was too short, hence it was hectic.
Overall good … planning for relaxing 03 days holiday again …
Cheers
