If you’re looking for a day-trip destination, we’ve got some suggestions. Located 20 miles away, Ooty is worth getting in the car for. See the best sights starting with Ooty Lake, Government Botanical Gardens and Ooty Rose Garden. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Vayittiri, 25 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Lakkidi View Point. (But we’re also huge fans of Koottamundu Glass Temple and Karlad Lake.)
