href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/tamil-nadu-tour-packages\">Tamil Nadu<\/a> has some of the best hill stations in the country. The most popular ones, such as<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/ooty-tour-packages\"> Ooty<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/kodaikanal-tour-packages\">Kodaikanal<\/a>, are flocked by thousands of tourists. However, some hidden gems offer magical experiences. Take a look at these lesser-known Tamil Nadu hill stations before you select the destination for your next trip:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1.Kolli Hills<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/places-to-visit\/kolli-hills-in-tamil-nadu-14550\"> Kolli Hills <\/a>are located in the Eastern Ghats of Tamil Nadu. You need to cross 70 hairpin bends to reach this quaint and virgin hill station. It is known for its rich biodiversity and peaceful setting. Kolli Hills is home to the ancient Arapaleeswarar Temple. You will also find the famous Agaya Gangai Waterfalls in this hill station.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro tip <\/strong>&#8211; Look for a nice homestay, instead of a big hotel, to soak up the real essence of this quiet little town.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2.Topslip <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/places-to-visit\/top-slip-in-coimbatore-13921\">Topslip<\/a> is a tranquil eco-tourism destination in the Anamalai Hills, right at the border of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/kerala-tour-packages\">Kerala<\/a>.

Romantic Escapes<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Kodaikanal<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Kodaikanal offers pure romance of the classic kind. Hours around Kodai Lake, a slow boat across the water, morning fog rolling over Coaker&#8217;s Walk, and sitting in a tiny hillside caf\u00e9, hot drink in hand. That&#8217;s it. That&#8217;s the whole thing. Does that sound too simple? No, it&#8217;s perfect. Sometimes simplicity is exactly what you need!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Coonoor<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/places-to-visit\/coonoor-in-nilgiri-11747\">Coonoor<\/a> is just like Ooty, but less hectic. It is the perfect peaceful alternative. Slow, unhurried days, green tea gardens that go on forever, quiet lookouts, and the historic Nilgiri toy train. Nothing here is hurried, and that helps you to have a slow, beautiful and memorable time with your beloved.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Ooty<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Ooty is always a classic! It has a lot of old-school charm. The pine woods, lush botanical gardens, misty lakes and cold winds push you into a romantic universe, one that serves as the perfect backdrop for a perfect couple\u2019s trip.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Family Trips<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Ooty <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Ooty has something for everyone in your family &#8211; from the exciting third-party train rides for your kids, to the delicious tea and chocolate sampling for your partner, from the beautiful rose garden visit for your mother to the thrilling hike for you, Ooty serves as the best family-friendly Tamil Nadu hill station.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Yercaud<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Much easier on the wallet, and way less crowded, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/places-to-visit\/yercaud-in-tamil-nadu-14572\">Yercaud <\/a>is a great choice for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/family-tour-packages\">family trip<\/a>. You get a lovely central lake, easy walking trails and pleasant parks. You actually relax on this vacation, instead of running around frantically.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Yelagiri <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Looking for the ultimate low-stress weekend? Then simply drive down to Yelagiri from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/holidays\/india-tour-packages\/bangalore-tour-packages\">Bengaluru<\/a> or Chennai. This is a very easygoing Tamil Nadu hill station. With gentle nature walks, quick boat trips, and a small adventure park, Yelagiri doesn&#8217;t disappoint. Kids burn off energy, and you get to breathe.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3.For the Thrill Seekers <\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Kolli Hills <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The drive up to Kolli Hills is an event by itself! Those 70 hair-raising hairpin bends, dense forests, and tucked-away waterfalls &#8211; all these act in tandem to give you a thrilling adventure even before you enter Kolli Hills. And once you&#8217;re there, the adventure just keeps mounting!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Velliangiri Hills<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Also known as the Kailash of the South, this trek is no joke. It is steep and quite gruelling. Meant primarily for seasoned hikers, the trek pushes your physical and mental limits. But when you overcome that and reach your destination, you end up with the most rewarding experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best time to visit hill stations in Tamil Nadu<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 297px;\" width=\"740\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"114\"><strong>Time of Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"243\"><strong>What to Expect<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"198\"><strong>Best For<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"114\">October to March<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"243\">Pleasant weather, clear skies, and all major attractions open<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"198\">Sightseeing, trekking, wildlife, family holidays<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"114\">April to June<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"243\">Cool escape from the summer heat, but peak tourist season in Ooty and Kodaikanal<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"198\">Summer vacations, honeymoon trips, family getaways<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"114\">July to September<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"243\">Lush green landscapes, misty views, and frequent rainfall; occasional road disruptions on hill routes<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"198\">Nature lovers, photographers, monsoon travel<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><strong>How to Reach Hill Stations in Tamil Nadu?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Reaching Tamil Nadu&#8217;s hill stations is easy, whether you&#8217;re travelling by road, rail, or air.

A reusable water bottle and sunscreen are also handy.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2.Book early for peak season (April\u2013June) <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Planning a summer holiday? Reserve your hotels and transport well in advance, especially if you&#8217;re visiting Ooty or Kodaikanal between April and June.
