One Day Trip From Mysore to Coorg

Mysore to Coorg One‑Day Trip by Car

A one‑day trip from Mysore to Coorg is ideal for travellers who want to sample the misty hills of Kodagu without an overnight stay. Our taxi picks you up at 7 AM and drops you back by 8:30 PM, allowing you to explore the sights comfortably. The hill station is best reached by road because it has no airport or railway.

Known as the “Scotland of India”, Coorg offers trekking and rafting amid rolling valleys. In a single day you can visit the Tibetan Golden Temple, Nisargadhama, Dubare Elephant Camp, Chiklihole Dam, Madikeri Fort, Omkareshwara Temple, Raja’s Tomb, Raja’s Seat and Abbey Falls.

Mysore to Coorg One Day Tour Itinerary 

Bylakuppe Tibetan Golden Temple – Visit a Tibetan settlement in India. The monastery houses around 16,000 refugees and 6,000 monks, and its 40‑ft golden Buddha statues and colourful murals create a peaceful start to the day

Nisargadhama – Cross a hanging bridge onto this 64‑acre island on the Kaveri River. Stroll through bamboo groves and enjoy the cool river breeze.
Dubare Elephant Camp – Meet elephants on the banks of the Cauvery; naturalists explain their behaviour and let you feed and bathe them. Optional still‑water rafting is available nearby.

Chiklihole Reservoir – A quiet dam between Madikeri and Kushalnagar. It offers picnic spots and sunset views amid lush greenery.

Madikeri (Mercara) Fort – Built by Mudduraja and later remodelled by Tipu Sultan. See the stone elephants at the gateway and a small church inside.

Omkareshwara Temple – Erected in 1820 by King Lingarajendra II, this temple blends Gothic and Islamic architecture.
It’s dedicated to Lord Shiva and features a central dome and four minarets.

Raja’s Tomb (Gaddige) – A 19th‑century mausoleum honouring Kodava rulers with domes and arches reminiscent of Islamic design.

Raja’s Seat – An elevated garden where Kodava kings once watched sunsets; today a musical fountain and toy train entertain visitors.

Abbey Falls – A 70‑ft waterfall surrounded by coffee and spice plantations. A hanging bridge opposite the falls provides the perfect selfie spot.
