How to reach Ooty
Most people drive from Tirupur via Coimbatore and Mettupalayam, then take the ghat road up through Coonoor. The planner shows the drive time it calculated for the route. Buses and the Nilgiri mountain train run from Mettupalayam, so check current timings and bookings before you go.
Best time to visit
Ooty is pleasant most of the year. Weekends, school holidays, April to June and the year-end season are crowded, so start early. Heavy rain and fog can slow the ghat road, so check the forecast shown on the plan.
Travel tips
- Start early so you reach the hills before the afternoon traffic.
- The ghat road has many hairpin bends: avoid driving it at night or in heavy fog.
- Carry a light jacket even in summer, evenings are cold.
- Opening times change on holidays and during bad weather, so call ahead for places that matter most to you.
