Start your adventure in the scenic town of Yelagiri, where you can head to Punganoor Lake, a man-made lake surrounded by beautiful gardens. Here you can enjoy a peaceful boat ride or go ziplining over the lake for an adrenaline rush. Other activities include rock climbing and ATV riding.
On day two, visit Swamimalai Hills, the highest point in Yelagiri. You can hike up the hill through the forest to enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding areas. At the top, you'll find the Velavan Temple, dedicated to Lord Murugan, with a small shrine to Buddha as well. The hike is moderate to difficult and takes around 2-3 hours to complete.
If you have more time, you can also visit the Jalagamparai Waterfalls, a picturesque waterfall located 12 km from Yelagiri, and the Telescope Observatory on Yelagiri Hills. If you have less time, skip the ziplining at Punganoor Lake or the hike up Swamimalai Hills and opt for a relaxing day at a spa or pool in one of the town's resorts.
