Begin your day by walking along the winding hillside at Coakers Walk, one of India's most scenic promenades. Take in picturesque views of the misty valley below and the distant hills. After a refreshing stroll, head over to Bryant Park nearby, where you can explore a riot of colors in its stunning collection of flowers. Relax on the manicured lawns or take a paddle-boat ride in the tranquil lake.
Start your day by taking in the panoramic view of the dense forest valley and the steep winding ghat road from Silent Valley Viewpoint. You may even be lucky enough to catch the clouds rolling below you. Later, head to the Bear Shola Falls, where you can hear the roar of the waterfall echoing through the forest. Take a refreshing dip in the pool or walk through the lush greenery surrounding it.
Spend your last day taking in the spectacular views of Pillar Rocks, where huge boulders jut out into the sky. You can take a short trek to get a closer view of the imposing cliffs. Later, head to the Dolphin's Nose viewpoint, shaped like a dolphin's nose, to witness the breathtaking views of the valley and the nearby Catherine Falls. Don't miss the thrill of walking on the narrow, winding path that leads to the viewpoint.
If you have more time, you can visit the Kodaikanal Lake, where you can take a leisurely boat ride or simply walk around the lake. For nature lovers, Berijam Lake is a must-visit, where you can go trekking or take a guided tour to spot exotic birds. If you have less time, you can consider skipping Bear Shola Falls and Pillar Rocks as they are slightly off the beaten path. Don't forget to carry sunscreen, comfortable walking shoes, and a good camera to capture the breathtaking views of this hill station.
