Start your day by visiting the heart-shaped Kodaikanal Lake, a man-made lake surrounded by lush greenery and misty mountains. Here, you can enjoy a peaceful boat ride, horseback riding, or just stroll around and enjoy the serene surroundings.
Next up, visit Coaker's Walk, a picturesque walking path that offers breathtaking views of the valley below and the surrounding hills. On a clear day, you can even see the Vaigai Dam and the Periyakulam town in the distance.
After a scenic walk, head to Bryant Park, a botanical garden with over 325 species of trees, shrubs, and cacti. Here, you can relax on the well-manicured lawns and enjoy a picnic or visit the greenhouse and admire the exotic flora.
For a unique experience, visit the Pine Forest, a dense forest of pine trees that is often used as a filming location for movies. Take a peaceful walk or a horseback ride through the forest and enjoy the fresh pine-scented air.
Finally, visit Guna Cave, a natural cave formed between two large boulders. The cave is named after the Tamil movie "Guna" that was shot here. The cave is dark, so be sure to carry a flashlight or use your phone's flashlight to navigate.
If you have more time, consider visiting the Silver Cascade Waterfall or the Pillar Rocks. You can also take a side trip to the nearby town of Vattakanal, which is known for its scenic beauty and hippie culture. To maximize your fun, try local cuisine such as idlis, dosas, and filter coffee, or shop for souvenirs such as homemade chocolates and spices. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and carry enough water and sunblock.
