Start the morning with a peaceful stroll through Coaker's Walk, a picturesque pathway offering stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys. End the walk at Bryant Park, a beautifully manicured park with a variety of flowers, trees and even a glasshouse. Spend the afternoon picnicking or relaxing on the park lawns.
Start the day by visiting the Pillar Rocks, gigantic rock formations that stand about 400 feet tall. Admire the stunning view of the three boulders rising vertically. After, take a short 15-minute drive to Guna Caves, also known as Devil's Kitchen. The caves are surrounded by dense forests and are famous for their deep hidden ravines and dangerous drops.
Start the day early and head to Berijam Lake for a peaceful morning surrounded by nature. The lake is known for its sparkling blue waters and the surrounding pine and eucalyptus trees. Spend the afternoon at Bear Shola Falls, a serene waterfall that flows throughout the year and is surrounded by lush greenery.
End the trip by visiting the most important landmark in Kodaikanal: Kodai Lake. Enjoy activities such as boating and cycling around the lake. Take an easy 10-minute walk to visit the Kurinji Andavar Temple which is often referred to as the "Temple of the God of the Hills". The temple is home to the Kurinji flower which blooms once in every 12 years.
For those with more time, consider adding a visit to the Green Valley Viewpoint to see an aerial view of Kodaikanal. For those with less time, it is recommended to combine Day 1 with a visit to Green Valley Viewpoint as it is on the way to Coaker's Walk.
