The Trivandrum to Ooty Cross-State Journey
The Trivandrum to Ooty drive is a cross-state adventure that takes you from Kerala into Tamil Nadu and up into the Nilgiri Hills. The route passes through Kochi, Coimbatore and then climbs the famous 36 hairpin bends to reach Ooty at 2,240 metres.
Ooty (Udhagamandalam) is one of South India's most beloved hill stations — known for its botanical gardens, Ooty Lake, tea estates and the heritage Nilgiri Mountain Railway.
It's a long drive, but our experienced drivers make it comfortable with well-planned breaks. Many travellers prefer to start early morning and reach Ooty by evening.
