Name it as the <strong>\u2018green\u2019 paradise<\/strong>, or a <strong>home to tribal communities<\/strong>, <strong>the abode of Odisha\u2019s highest peak and highest waterfall<\/strong>, and also a region of thriving coffee plantation culture \u2013 Koraput offers everything and so much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reaching Koraput is also easily accessible through the rail and road routes. In case you\u2019re starting from <a href=\"https:\/\/bestchoiceholiday.com\/odisha-tourist-destinations\/bhubaneswar.html\">Bhubaneswar<\/a>, you can either take the Bhubaneswar-Jagdalpur-Hirakhand express, which leaves around 7:30 PM at night, from Bhubaneswar, and reaches Koraput next day at 9:30 in the morning. And if you\u2019re opting to drive down from Bhubaneswar, you can reach Koraput in almost 10-11 hours, as Koraput is situated roughly at a distance of around 500 kms from the capital city. No matter which route you take, <strong>the views and path to Koraput will be super scenic and enchanting<\/strong>. Especially if you\u2019re on a train, you\u2019ll get some enchanting views and would really enjoy the journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although accommodation options are not too plenty in and around Koraput, yet you\u2019ll find fairly decent places in Koraput town and also in Jeypore. It\u2019s better to stay in the Koraput town itself, from where you can visit the tourist destinations, experience the local market, and also engage with the tribal community. It\u2019s advisable to spend at least 3-4 days in Koraput, if you really want to enjoy the vibe and beauty of this place. The weather remains pleasant round the year, but if you get a chance, do visit Koraput in the monsoon season, when the entire area looks lush green, with the rains giving a dramatic look to the entire landscape of the region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/bestchoiceholiday.com\/odisha-tourist-destinations\/koraput.html\">must-visit places in Koraput<\/a> include <strong>Deoamli<\/strong>, <strong>Duduma waterfalls,<\/strong> <strong>Gupteshwar caves<\/strong>, <strong>Rani Duduma waterfall<\/strong>, <strong>Tribal musuem<\/strong>, <strong>Kolab reservoir<\/strong>, <strong>Kolab botanical garden<\/strong>, <strong>Kolab falls<\/strong> and few temples as well. That apart, you can also plan to <strong>take a tour of the coffee plantations<\/strong> out here, and also <strong>visit the local market<\/strong> which will elevate your Koraput experience even more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter where you are in Koraput, you\u2019ll always <strong>get mesmerising views<\/strong> and <strong>take back some amazing memories to cherish for a lifetime<\/strong>. The place is <strong>a traveller\u2019s paradise<\/strong> and is truly majestic from all corners. We suggest, whenever you <a href=\"https:\/\/bestchoiceholiday.com\/odisha-tour-packages.html\">visit Odisha<\/a>, do spend few days of your <a href=\"https:\/\/bestchoiceholiday.com\/odisha-tour-packages\/koraput-tour-itinerary-with-bhubaneswar-chilika-daringbadi-tour.html\">trip to Koraput<\/a>, because the calmness and serenity that you will experience here are truly unmatchable.
