Yes, the Bon Voyage mail would contain a link for Whatsapp Group through which one can join and interact with fellow travellers and outdoor leaders.

The interesting thing about travelling alone is that you get to meet new people from diverse backgrounds, and towards the end, you are no longer strangers. Hence solo travellers are always welcome to join us on our trips. Read more about solo travelling here and get inspired! https://www.plantheunplanned.com/solo-yet-accompanied/

Safety and security are our priority at all times. Hence it is safe for women/girls to join us on our treks and travels.

Well, you are in the mountains and none of our trails has a washroom facility during the trek.

The Brahmagiri Peak Trek is an easy-moderate trek and one can easily do this trek with a moderate fitness

To reach Brahamagiri's peak, which is roughly 1608 metres high, requires more than 3 hours of arduous hiking. The 10-kilometre trek starts at the camp shed of the Forest Department at Thirunelli.

You can leave your luggage at the homestay/tent and carry the necessary items to the trek.

The trek's network is quite limited. BSNL and Jio will have the highest prospects of obtaining a network.

Yes, it is filled with leeches.

The months of November to April are the most popular for hikers on this route since they are the finest for outdoor activities. Throughout the year, the climate in Coorg is generally cool. During the summer, the days are somewhat hotter, but the evenings are cool. Winter is a popular time for hikers to climb Nishani Motte since it is cold and pleasant

No, you cannot camp anywhere along the trail.

Of course, it rains quite a lot during the monsoon, so it’s not preferred if you want to get out and explore. If you want to sit in your homestay (or resort), enjoying a hot cup of coffee and watching the rain, then go ahead!
