Top 3 Places to Visit in Kodaikanal on Your Next Vacation

 Featuring verdure valleys, dense jungles, cascading waterfalls, undulating hill slopes, and meandering rivers, the natural beauty of Kodaikanal attracts many tourists all year round. Often referred to as the “Princess of Hills”, it is among the most popular tourist destinations in South India. Kodaikanal lies at an elevation of 7000 feet above sea-level. By booking a Kodaikanal package, you would get to visit some of the most exceptional places in the region, such as: 


  1. Pillar Rocks

This charming tourist attraction is characterised by its scenic beauty. The Pillar Rocks are three giant rock formations that stand tall at a height of 400 feet from the ground. These rocks tower over the plains of Kodaikanal and provide an incredible view of the surrounding natural beauty from its distinctive vantage points. These rocks rise vertically upward from the ground, and have remained undisturbed by humans, making this place all the more special. You can find many hidden nooks and crannies in these rocks to explore, each of them providing a distinctive view of the surrounding landscape.


  1. Kodai Lake

This lake was built in 1983 by Sir Vere Henry Levinge, who was a former District Collector of Madurai. Koidai Lake is spread out in the shape of a star over 60 acres. It is surrounded by a fine tarred road of 5 km. You can go on a boat ride on the lake or just relax on its lakeshore and admire the view. 


  1. Coakers Walk

This is a gorgeous one-kilometre-long walking plaza on the mountains of Kodaikanal. The lovely man-made path of Coakers Walk curves by the edge of the mountain, and has been constructed largely for morning and evening walks. It was constructed in 1872 on the steep slope of the mountains by Lieutenant Coaker. This walking plaza is just a half a kilometre away from Kodaikanal Lake.


The word Kodaikanal means "gift of the forest", and its beauty and charm surely justify its name. Its stunning natural beauty makes this hill station among the top tourist destinations of Tamil Nadu.
