Start your adventure weekend at Doddabetta Peak, the highest mountain in the Nilgiri Hills. Trek the various trails amongst the lush green forests and take in the panoramic views from the top of the mountain. With cool and crisp air, this trek provides an unforgettable experience for adventure enthusiasts. You can explore the Peak for around 3-4 hours and satisfy your adventurous spirit.
Begin your day by visiting Avalanche Lake, a natural freshwater lake surrounded by stunning landscapes and beautiful forests. Enjoy the serene boat rides and witness the scenic beauty where you can also indulge in angling, trout fishing, and camping. With its natural beauty and opportunities for adventure, Avalanche Lake is a must-visit spot for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike. Spend around 2-3 hours here before heading back to the town for your journey back.
If you have more time, you can visit the Pykara waterfalls, go on a forest safari or try the Adventure Zone on the Ooty- Mysore road. If you have less time, skip the boat rides at Avalanche Lake and enjoy the surrounding scenery. Make sure to wear comfortable clothes with good walking shoes for a hassle-free trekking experience. Carry enough water bottles, sunscreen and mosquito repellent cream while trekking in Ooty. Beware of the monkeys who might grab your food.
