Coorg, Karnataka the epitome of Ecotourism practices

The Ecotourism practices at Coorg tourist attractions are highly substantial specifically at Nisargadham and Dubare Elephant Camp. The people involved in managing these places are doing commendable job. To exemplify local people are fully involved in the tourism activities which are listed below:

At Nisarghadham:
Local people are given commercial spaces to put up their stalls of chocolates, apparels, handicrafts, dry fruits, spices, food, wines, etc. Some are deployed  for the upkeep of the area. Some take care of the adventure activities at the spot. Cottages made of bamboos for accommodations are taken care by the local people.

At Dubare Elephant Camp:
Local  people take care of the transportation activity from the parking area to the camp site, they are involved in the activities like bathing, feeding and training of elephants. The crossing of river to  reach the camp is very adventurous and naturally kept. 

Abbey Falls:
Local people take care of the parking, food corners and maintenance. 

Tourists visiting such naturally blessed spots should be sensitive towards the cleanliness, hygiene, sanitation and upkeep of the place. It is been observed that tourists litter the place knowingly,  spoiling the surrounding just because of their indifference attitude. It is a humble request to all the tourists to not to litter such beautiful places and spoil its elegance.

    Interesting article. There is a saying, everybody wants to change the world but nobody is ready to change themselves for the world. Perhaps it is time for us to reflect on ourselves and ask, what have I done for Mother Nature?
    Good job Sweety.. way to go��

Here, the Arkavati River , after meandering through forests and small villages, meets the mighty Cauvery at Sangama — a meeting point that feels almost ceremonial. The Journey About 90 km from Bengaluru, the drive to Sangama takes you past fields, rocky outcrops, and small towns that slowly give way to a more rugged terrain. The air feels fresher, and the distant roar of the river hints at what awaits. Sangama – The Confluence At Sangama, the Arkavati , which originates in the Nandi Hills region, flows gracefully into the Cauvery.
