Explore the lush greenery of the Ooty Botanical Gardens. Home to a wide variety of exotic flora and fauna, this garden is a visual delight for nature lovers. Founded in the 19th century, these gardens are spread over 55 acres and include themed sections such as Italian, rock, and fern gardens, a conservatory, and a tree trunk made into a flower clock. The garden is open every day from 8 am to 6:30 pm.
Head to the Doddabetta Peak, the highest vantage point in the Nilgiri Mountains. In June, the views of the valley are breathtaking, and the cool climate makes it an ideal spot to enjoy nature at its best. The peak is open from 7 am to 6 pm. Visitors can enjoy a cup of tea and light refreshments at the small food court nearby.
Witness the magnificent Pykara Falls. The water cascades down from a height of 55 meters, and the serene surroundings make it a refreshing retreat from the hot sun in June. Visitors can enjoy a boat ride on the Pykara Lake or go for a picnic near the falls. The falls are open every day from 9 am to 6 pm.
End your trip with a visit to the Avalanche Lake. Nestled amidst verdant forests, this serene lake is a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the tranquility in June. Boating is prohibited, but visitors can go for a nature walk around the lake and enjoy the stunning views. The lake is open from 9 am to 6 pm.
If you have more time, you can add a visit to the Ooty Lake, a boating paradise, or take a toy train ride from Ooty to Coonoor and enjoy the scenic vistas along the way. If you have less time, you can skip the Avalanche Lake.
