The view of mist-shrouded hills in the early morning followed by a sip of aromatic coffee giving a breath of life, a leisurely walk along the rolling hill slopes, the silence of the teakwood forest, sweet scent of thick orange groves, pitter-patter of the raindrops, sensuous dance-movement of the waterfalls during monsoon season ........ appear like a dream sequence but it is a reality in Coorg. Every sound, every sight,everywhere one encounters nothing but the healing touch of nature.
