💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in tribal homestays (₹300-600 per night) instead of hotels - they're cheaper, include home-cooked meals, and directly support local communities while offering genuine cultural experiences.
📅 October to March is ideal, when temperatures range from 15-28°C and the monsoon rains have cleared, making trekking and village visits comfortable. Avoid May-September due to heavy rainfall and extreme humidity that can hinder outdoor exploration.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa as Koraput is located within India in Odisha state. Simply carry a valid Indian ID or passport for domestic travel.
