Start your honeymoon by exploring the lush green Ooty Botanical Gardens. Spread over 22 hectares, the gardens are home to over 650 species of plants and trees. Stroll hand in hand with your partner and breathe in the fragrance of the blooming flowers. Don't forget to visit the Toda Hill, a peaceful spot with views of the Nilgiri mountain range.
Watch the sunrise from the highest peak in the Nilgiris, Doddabetta Peak. The stunning panoramic views of the surrounding hills, valleys, and tea estates will leave you awestruck. Enjoy a hot cup of tea and breakfast from the tea shop at the top before heading back down. Stop by the Chocolate Factory on the way to indulge in some sweet treats.
The Coakers Walk offers spectacular views of the misty valleys of Kodaikanal. The 1-kilometer long paved pedestrian path is perfect for a romantic stroll with your partner. Visit during the early hours of the morning to avoid the crowds and catch the gorgeous valley sunrise. Don't miss the Telescope House, which offers a closer look at the scenic beauty.
End your honeymoon by spending a peaceful day at the Kodaikanal Lake. Rent a boat and float on the tranquil waters, surrounded by green hills. The lake is home to a variety of fish, including the famous Masheer fish. You can also visit the nearby Kurinji Andavar Temple dedicated to Lord Murugan and the nearby parks and gardens.
If you have more time, consider visiting the Pykara Lake and Falls in Ooty or the Pillar Rocks in Kodaikanal. If you have less time, skip the Chocolate Factory and Telescope House. Don't forget to carry enough warm clothes, especially during the winter months, as the temperature drops significantly in the evenings.
