(Tamil Nadu)


Pride of the Niligris

The train chugs out from near Mettupalayam and winds its way around the verdant greens, passing through many tunnels. Halfway uphill, if you put your hands out, you can actually feel the mist. And you get one of the best views of the valley. Welcome to Ooty, the Queen of Hills, the Scotland of the East.

Entertainment & Night Life
Entertainment
The walks, pony rides and boating will leave little time for anything else. But for those interested, the Gymkhana offers golfing. Thankfully, it's open to all, not just members and their guests. There are no amusement parks in Ooty, but Mettupalayam just a stone's throw away, boasts of Black Thunder, one of the first water theme parks in India.
Nightlife
Tuck into bed, that's what Ooty does. There are no nightclubs or pubs. Most restaurants too don't entertain after 11 pm.
Kidding around
Kamaraj Sagar (Sandy Nallah Reservoir): An ideal picnic spot on the slopes of the Wenlock Downs, the reservoir offers excellent fishing opportunities. If lucky, you can see the shooting of a film, since the idyllic setting is a favourite with southern filmmakers. For Adventure Freaks If ready for a bit of adventure, the hills beckon. Trekking: There are numerous trekking trails going up from Ooty. For more info as well as for hiring guides, contact the Nilgiri Wildlife and Environment Association (Mount Stewart Hill, Tel: 447167). Hang Gliding: The district tourism department organises hang gliding courses between March and May every year. The tourist office on Charing Cross would be the place to contact for more information. Fishing: Trout, carp and trench fishing is possible once you get a license from the Assistant Director of Fisheries.
