Ah, Madikeri, one of the most beautiful vacation spots in Karnataka! The lively capital of the Kodagu district is a scenic hill station nestled in the Western Ghats. Full of paddy fields, cardamom and coffee plantations, and vast expanses of beautiful orchards, Madikeri is truly a sight to behold. The land of the origin of river Kaveri is green and serene, making it one of the best places for a family holiday. The best time to visit Coorg is in the (October to May) season, where one can enjoy short trips and usually see a lot of tourist activities. But it is the winter season that is the best season owing to the crisp air and green landscape transporting you to heaven.
Summers in Madikeri are pleasant with temperatures ranging from 30-37 degrees Celsius. The warm weather serves as the perfect shelter against the scorching summers. Being the optimal season for long exploration trips, this is the best time to visit Madikeri in Coorg and other towns in the Kodagu district, famous for its spices. Be prepared to meet hordes of fellow travelers from all over the country as this is the season that sees the most tourist activity.
Don’t forget some summer packing essentials. Since the weather isn’t too jarring, we’d recommend good old light clothes and summer wear. Hats and sunglasses are a must in the late April-May period. However, be sure to carry proper shoes and some salt or matches wherever you go because the Ghats are crawling with leeches. While there isn’t much danger of many mosquito bites, do take calamine lotion in case you are met by other insects.
Monsoons in Madikeri are much cooler with temperatures at around 20 degrees Celsius being recorded. The monsoon season begins in June and ends in September. This is a bit of an off-season for Madikeri since there is a steady rainfall each evening accompanied by bristling winds. However, those who are truly invested in greenery must visit Madikeri in July for a pleasurable experience.
The monsoon months in Kodagu are for the truly daring. Prepare yourself for the onslaught of rains with umbrellas, raincoats, and maybe even rubber boots depending on which month you’re visiting. Also, pack some warm clothing as it gets a little chilly in the evenings. Flip-flops and open-toed shoes are a no-no.
Winters in Madikeri (i.e October-February) is when the beauty of Coorg is at its peak. The days are warm, but the nights are quite cool, temperatures going as low as 14 degrees Celsius on certain days. The ambience is delightful and makes for a memorable family trip. This the ideal season to revel in the scenery and scents of the Kodagu district.
Winters in Madikeri can get quite chilly even as the world blossoms around you. Carry sweaters, scarves, hats and any item of clothing that will keep you snug and warm. As always, carry shoes for walking/trekking, and some matches or salt for the leeches. Any light showers can be fended off by umbrellas.
