About Tadiandamol Trek, Coorg: 

Tadiandamol Trekking Trail in Karnataka is one of the most beloved trails for novice and experienced trekkers alike, drawing trekkers from around India. Situated in Kodagu (Coorg), this trek provides spectacular views of the Western Ghats as well as lush forest surroundings. Starting this trek through the shola forests will be an enjoyable journey, with cool air and bird songs providing a relaxing start. These pristine forests are home to numerous species of flora and fauna – you might spot exotic butterflies or even one of the Nilgiri langur or Malabar giant squirrel. After some time, you come upon a small stream that allows for barefoot crossing. Enjoy its cool water as you enjoy walking alongside it. After this point, the forest trail becomes increasingly steeper; during monsoon season, mud can become treacherous, so we recommend wearing quality trekking shoes and carrying trekking poles to stay on course. As your trek progresses, you quickly reach a boulder point. From here, you can spot a hillock which serves as a false peak of Tadiandamol; its true peak lies much further to the left or the south side. There is also a trail marker from the forest department here showing you how to reach its summit. Start your journey early so you can enjoy a glorious sunrise view from the summit, while also avoiding midday heat and crowds. Consider hiring a local guide who can share fascinating tales of local flora and fauna while keeping within Leave No Trace guidelines to protect our environment.
