ABOUT KABBE HOLIDAYS
Kabbe Holidays – Coorg, lies nestled in the picturesque foothills of the Kabbe Hills, Somakundu and Thadiyandamolu in Kodagu district (Coorg).
​
Located at a height of over 3800 ft. above sea level, the place offers some of Coorg’s most incredible views.
Kabbe is known for some of the best Toddy (a fresh extract from palm trees), a traditional drink of the locals.
​
As part of Kabbe’s heritage, the Kudiyas, Kabbe’s tribes, continue to inhabit the place even today. Still preserved in their ways over hundreds of years, the Kudiyas follow every ancient custom and practice. 25 years ago, the Kudiyas lived in the Sholas (Forests) and made a living of tapping toddy and trading the same for rice. They depended on jungle produce and bamboo shoots, wild spinach and other roots and rhizomes for their daily food.
​
The Kudiyas started migrating to civilization in the last 20-25 years, built their own homes and now grow their own coffee and cardamom.
