Destination planning notes

Treat the Nilgiri drive as part of the holiday

Forest roads, hill bends and viewpoints make the transfer memorable, but they also make a tightly packed arrival day unrealistic.

Respect the forest corridor

Use only permitted stops, never feed wildlife and allow the driver to follow the suitable route for the vehicle.

Group Ooty by direction

Town gardens belong together, Pykara needs another block, and Coonoor is best treated as a separate outing.

Carry a warm layer

Children, seniors and travellers arriving from warmer weather may appreciate layers even when the forecast looks mild.
