Palace Estate
From this place Talacauvery and madikeri are accessible .
Tadiandamol peak is good one day trek and this is highest point in coorg. Trek is easy but last one kilometer is steep climb. We will have 360 views of coorg from peak. People generally camp overnight near the peak. Trek in monsoon is impossible due to heavy rains in this area. Leeches is also a problem in monsoon. Best season for trek would be immediately after monsoon. Trek in summer is easy but will be little bit hot. I did trek in peak summer and started 6:30 to avoid hot sun
