Hi,
I wish to go for a trip to ooty and kodaikanal for 3 days but couldn't find out how to reach there and thus am not able to draw an itinerary.
If anyone of you ppl out here please tell me how to reach ooty from bangalore it will be of great help and also in general abt what to look out for places in ooty and kodaikanal.

Thanks,
Naren

hi ,there are direct buses from bangalore to oooty and kodaiknal aswell . if u intend to go by train ..u can hit dindigul from bangalore and later take a local bus to kodaikanal ( about 4 hrs roughly ) ..there are buses from kodaiknal to ooty as well .. kodikanal there are some beautiful treks around , do not miss the berijam lake . ( u need the forest wardens pernmission for this ) ..the greenland youth hostel is the best place tostay there . Oooty try staying at the y.w.c.a THEY have good dorms for Rs 70 /- and they can also arrange for guides if u want to take day hikes .. cheers and have fun

I took an overnight bus. Log on to kstrc.org

They have comfy deluxe buses, carry a light woolen sweater, the wind can be chilly.
