Cultural Experiences in Coorg

When visiting Coorg, the cultural experiences are as rich and diverse as the landscape. From the tranquil river homestays along the Kaveri River to the charming town of Kushalnagar, Coorg offers a range of activities that help visitors understand the local culture.

Staying at a river homestay allows you to experience the authentic lifestyle of a Kodava family. These homestays, often located by the river in beautiful, secluded spots, offer you a chance to enjoy warm, home-cooked meals, interact with the locals, and partake in the region’s customs and traditions. The proximity to nature provides an opportunity for outdoor activities like trekking, birdwatching, and fishing.

In Kushalnagar, one can explore the many ancient temples, monasteries, and scenic spots that offer a glimpse into Coorg’s spiritual side. The Namdroling Monastery (also known as the Golden Temple) in the area is a peaceful place for reflection and to learn about the Tibetan Buddhist influence on the region.
