Tamil Nadu · Palani hill station
About this trip
Kodaikanal, the "princess of hill stations" set high in the Palani hills, is built around a star-shaped lake amid shola forest and dramatic granite viewpoints. The cliff-edge Coaker's Walk, the sheer Pillar Rocks and misty valley overlooks, plus its cool climate and homemade chocolate, make it a beloved southern retreat. A single unhurried night in Kodaikanal suits a short break or a weekend add-on — enough to settle in, take the headline sights at an easy pace and still feel you have been somewhere, without committing a whole holiday to it. The day-by-day below is a flexible framework — priced on enquiry and confirmed with you at quotation for your exact dates, pace and party.
