THADIYANDAMOL
THADIYANDAMOL is the highest mountain in
Coorg (Mercara) Dist (1750 Mtrs. MSL). This place is around 250 Kms from
Bangalore - via Virajpet. The climb to this mountain is gradient passing
through grassland. If you are the type who likes to mingle with nature,
see the snow-like mist romance with mountain slopes, feel the tingle of
the cool and gentle breeze, watch the leaves flutter in dance-like
movements, hear the sounds of chirping birds fill the air, and then
Coorg is the place for you. Kodagu is noted for its scenic beauty.
Hiking, cross-country, or simply motoring down mountain trails in Coorg,
the visitor encounters panoramic views of the morning mist rolling down
thickly wooded hill slopes and the undulating paddy fields and neat rows
of coffee bushes resplendent under the blue skies. Now a flourishing
agricultural center, Kodagu produces cash crops of coffee, rice, orange,
pepper and cardamom. With its misty mountains and dense forests, Coorg
seemed like a little corner of England to the British. They left behind
a legacy, which is still an important source of national wealth. The
well laid coffee plantations in Coorg account for almost half of
Karnataka's coffee production. And Karnataka continues to be India's
largest producer of coffee. Other reminders of the colonial past are the
spacious estate bungalows, many of which still have British names and
the meandering roads that wind through the district
