A Family Trip to Coorg - Part 5

Back to Part 4 Cauvery Nisargadhama  is another important spot to visit during your visit to Coorg.  It is a  breathtaking and beautiful island off the state highway, Just 2 km from Kushalnagar town and around 30 kms from Madikeri. It is a 64 acre island with Cauvery water flowing by. Nisargadhama is filled with lush foliage and thick bamboo groves and is a paradise for nature lovers.  To access the island, one has to walk through a suspension bridge. There is boat ride, and elephant ride and also a deer park.  We didn't go here for a boat ride or elephant ride, but visited the deer park and enjoyed feeding the deer.  For enjoyment, there are treetop watchtowers with ladders, bamboo pergolas, and swings. For adventure-seeking people, there is a zip line, through which one can go to the other end and reach down in about a minute. Kids and adults alike would love this adventure sport. There are cottages for the people to stay. 35 kms from Madi
