Also known as the ‘Scotland of India’\, it was given the term because of its previous Scottish and British settlers being reminded of their homeland by the hilly terrain\, greenery\, and the cool climate. The Coffee Trails will take the runners through beautiful coffee estates and some of the most beautiful trails and views in all of Coorg. The route will take in three of the most well-known peaks in the area; Thadiandamol (the tallest peak in Coorg)\, Kabbe and Chomakund.\nCategories:\nDISTANCE: 62km\nTOTAL ELEVATION GAIN: 3840m\nHIGHEST ALTITUDE: 1\,697m\nCUT-OFF: 12hrs\nITRA points: 3\n\nDISTANCE: 31km\nTOTAL ELEVATION GAIN: 1920m\nHIGHEST ALTITUDE: 1\,697m\nCUT-OFF: 6hrs\nITRA points: 1\n\nDISTANCE: 11km\nTOTAL ELEVATION GAIN: 710m\nHIGHEST ALTITUDE: 1\,697m\nCUT-OFF: 3hrs\nITRA points: 0\n\n\nPlease note:\nBook your ticket on Razorpay by clicking here \n\nThe views are breathtaking and the course difficulty ranges from comfortable to downright bad.
