Places covered

What you can include on this route

The exact stop order depends on pickup time, crowd, weather and road condition. The driver will suggest a practical order on the day.

Kotagiri side drive

Quiet hill roads, tea estates and small viewpoints. This is the main reason many guests choose Kodanadu instead of a crowded Ooty city route.

Catherine Falls outer view

Can be included when visibility and timing allow. This is usually planned as an outer viewpoint stop, not a long trek.

Kodanad View Point

The main destination with valley views and distant plains. Clear mornings give the best chance of seeing wider layers of the Nilgiris.
