Tips

Travel Tips for Your Coonoor Trip

  • Bandipur–Mudumalai forest roads close to traffic at night — start early.
  • Nilgiris requires an e-pass for tourist vehicles in peak season; we arrange it.
  • Carry warm layers — nights are cool year-round.
  • The Kallatti ghat is steep; we use the Gudalur side for comfort.
