Ooty - Monsoon

If you love to experience the monsoon romance, the mist and the emerald beauty of nature, head to Ooty during the monsoons.

The locals say monsoon in Ooty is unlike in other cities and it’s mostly a drizzle, except for the rare occasions when the wind and the rain get naughty and play havoc with nature, uprooting trees and blocking roads. If you are willing to take risk, if at all the rare phenomenon of a natural disaster occurs, head to Ooty for a memorable monsoon holiday. The hill station will be less-crowded, you will get the space to move around freely and of course the greenery around and the tiny droplets of water will awaken your senses. Here is a glimpse of the magical land when it rains…

How to get there:

By Air: Coimbatore is well connected with several Indian cities.

By Road: Ooty is 110 km from Coimbatore, 155 km from Mysore, 187 km from Calicut and 284 km from Bangalore. Frequent buses ply between these routes. From Coimbatore you can drive via Coonoor or Kothagiri. Both routes offer a different experience.

By Rail: The nearest railhead is Mettupalam (46 km), but if the traffic clogs due to heavy rains, you can take the Nilgiri toy train to reach Ooty.

When to visit: Any time of the year is good, but if you are yearning for a misty romantic ambience, visit during the monsoons months - between July and September.

What to buy: Honey, Eucalyptus oil and other aromatic oils
