Coffee Chronicles by Cycle, Coorg

Coorg has long caught our imagination for its glorious natural vistas, its misty hill trails and its superb coffee plantations. Its salubrious climes add that extra dollop of allure to this emerald haven, which also goes by the name of Kodagu.  The Kodagu region is also significant for producing an annual coffee crop of about 1,10,730 MT, which is 50% of the production of Karnataka State, and 35% of India’s output. Coorg is fabled for its Arabica and Robusta coffee beans. With coffee cultivation being so labour intensive, 51% of jobs in the region are being created by the coffee plantations.

  • A lovely introduction to coffee country
  • An energising eco-friendly ride to discover Coorg’s iconic natural beauty
  • Enjoying the pristine environs and taking lots of pictures for your memory bank

This refreshing 7-hr bike ride takes you through swathes of coffee country set against the backdrop of gorgeous mountain range.  Your ride takes you through a mix of terrains, with plenty of smooth roads and fun-filled off-road paths, to make this an exciting and memorable experience.

From your hotel your ride begins at calm pace taking you along quiet backroads to a peaceful river valley. From there, the road gently winds through coffee farms and paddy fields until you reach a lively, flowing river—perfect for a short break and a splash.

Allowing you to cool off here for a bit the road beckons you again to explore the winding trails into the hills. The uphill ride is a bit of a challenge, but you’ll be rewarded with amazing views of green valleys and forest-covered slopes. Eventually, you’ll reach a serene and verdant valley marked by vast stands of trees, open meadows, plantations, and a clear stream—an ideal spot to relax after a full day of biking.

Having freshened up you’ll be ready for as a short walk that leads you to a viewpoint in the forest. From there, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the hills, open country and if the sky is clear, even the distant ocean.
