Overview
A trip from Bengaluru to Mysuru, Coorg, and Ooty unfolds like a tapestry of heritage, nature, and hill station charm. Beginning in Mysuru, the cultural capital of Karnataka, travelers are awed by the grandeur of the Mysore Palace, the vibrant Devaraja Market, and the spiritual calm of Chamundi Hills. From there, the journey winds into the lush coffee country of Coorg (Kodagu), where misty plantations, cascading waterfalls like Abbey Falls, and wildlife at Nagarhole National Park create a serene yet adventurous escape. Finally, crossing into Tamil Nadu, the road climbs to the Nilgiri Hills and the “Queen of Hills,” Ooty, with its tea gardens, Botanical Gardens, Ooty Lake, and the heritage Nilgiri Mountain Railway offering colonial charm and panoramic views. Together, these three destinations form a perfect circuit—royal heritage in Mysuru, verdant tranquility in Coorg, and cool alpine beauty in Ooty—making for a richly layered journey ex Bengaluru.
