Tucked away in the lush heart of Coorg, the Kopatty Trek is one of the Western Ghats’ best-kept secrets. Far from the crowded tourist trails, this offbeat route takes you through a medley of coffee plantations, thick forest canopies, rolling meadows, and panoramic ridgelines — all leading up to a summit that rewards you with sweeping views of endless green hills fading into the mist.
Over the weekend, you’ll experience more than just the climb — from chasing hidden waterfalls to visiting Talacauvery, the source of the River Cauvery, this trip is a perfect blend of adventure and exploration. Whether you’re a solo traveller seeking new connections or a nature lover craving the quiet hum of the hills, Kopatty promises an unforgettable escape from the everyday rush.

Homestay
Details
We’ll reach our homestay in the early hours, freshen up, and fuel ourselves with a wholesome breakfast before heading out to the trailhead. The Kopatty trek is one of Coorg’s most scenic yet lesser-known trails, offering an authentic slice of the Western Ghats without the usual crowd.
The trek begins through winding mud roads flanked by lush coffee plantations, with the earthy aroma of Coorg’s famous beans filling the air. Soon, the path narrows and leads into a dense stretch of forest where sunlight filters through tall trees and the sound of bird calls accompanies your steps. Emerging from the woods, the landscape opens into rolling grasslands, with the Kopatty ridge stretching before you. From here, a steady ascent across undulating meadows takes you to the base of the peak. The final climb rewards you with sweeping 360° views of endless green hills, valleys, and distant peaks.
We’ll pause at the summit to soak in the sights and enjoy a packed lunch amidst the clouds before beginning our descent along the same route. The return trek gives you a different perspective of the terrain, with every turn offering a fresh frame of the Coorg countryside. By evening, we’ll be back at the homestay to rest and freshen up. The day winds down with a hearty dinner, and if the weather is kind, a warm campfire under a sky full of stars.

En route back, we’ll enjoy a self-sponsored lunch at a local eatery before beginning our return journey to Bangalore. By around 10:30 PM, we’ll be back in the city, carrying with us not just photographs, but the quiet joy of a weekend spent in nature’s embrace.
