Overview

Kotagiri (Mountains of the Kotas) hill station is one of the most serene places situated at the height of 5,890 feet and 380 kms far from Bangalore. Located in Nilgiris district, this popular travelling destination is a traditional home for the Kota tribe. It is surrounded by tea estates and many long green landscapes. One can fade their worries and become philosophical in the breezy atmosphere and fluctuating temperature.

You will start your trek with the background of birds chirping in the tea gardens and slowly move towards the valley on the river.  While passing through the pine forests, you will hear the strange but pleasant sound of wind passing by your ears, it will converge your thoughts into a single unit giving the sense of tranquillity. Some of the stunning visuals will be coffee plantation, enormous rock formation and a long valley. Come back to your base camp in the evening and set the camp fire (depending on the weather) for casual conversational time with a nice dinner.

In the morning, our expert team will guide you to Catherine Falls where you can experience the sensational view of cascading waterfalls. You can hamper your ego by taking steps towards the falls with an intention to get drenched and have fun with friends.
