Kodagu Homestays Receive Green Star Rating to Promote Eco‑Friendly Tourism
The Forest and Tourism Department has launched a new scheme awarding Green Star ratings to homestays in Kodagu district, aiming to boost environmentally sustainable tourism.
Kodagu district homestays have been awarded a Green Star rating by the Forest and Tourism Department as part of a new initiative to promote eco‑friendly tourism.
Under the scheme, homestays that meet certain environmental criteria are recognised with a Green Star rating, signalling their commitment to sustainable practices.
The rating is expected to attract eco‑conscious visitors, support the local economy and encourage other accommodation providers to adopt greener operations.
The Forest and Tourism Department has rolled out the programme across Kodagu, offering homestays the opportunity to apply for the Green Star designation.
