Begin your day with a visit to the magnificent Hogenakkal Falls. Located at the intersection of Kaveri River and Melagiri Hills, the falls boast of breathtaking natural beauty with its cascading waterfalls. Experience the thrill by taking a coracle ride that takes you close to the falls. You can also find several small eateries nearby for breakfast.
Next, head towards Mettur Dam, located in the nearby district of Salem. Built across the Kaveri River, the dam is one of the largest in India and offers a panoramic view of the surrounding natural beauty. Take a leisurely walk or hire a bike to explore the dam and its scenic surroundings. There are many small snack shops for refreshments.
Make your way to Pagoda Point in Yercaud - a trekking and hiking paradise. Take a leisurely nature walk to enjoy the refreshing greenery and a panoramic view of the Salem town. The beautiful pagodas at the point create an interesting viewpoint and make it an ideal place for photography.
End your day at Anna Park, located in the heart of Salem. Enjoy a stroll through the park featuring various trees, flowering plants, fountains and ponds. Anna Park also has an art gallery and a toy train ride for children making it an ideal place for families to relax and unwind.
If you have less time, consider skipping Pagoda Point and spending more time at Hogenakkal Falls and Anna Park. However, if you have a little more time, add a visit to Salem's historic fort, Panamarathupatti lake or Ganesha Temple en route.
