Day 1: The Scenic Climb to the Jewel of the South
Your adventure begins with a beautiful transition from the plains of Kerala to the rolling hills of Tamil Nadu.
The Scenic Ghat Drive
We kick off the journey bright and early, departing from Ernakulam (Kaloor International Stadium) at 07:30 am. We will pick up fellow travelers in Thrissur at the Mannuthy Bypass by 10:00 am, and make a final pickup stop in Palakkad at the Chandranagar Bypass around 11:30. You will travel via the Coimbatore-Salem route, which leads into a mesmerizing, scenic ghat drive straight up to Yercaud. By evening, we reach the beautiful hill station, where you will check into your deluxe hotel for a relaxing overnight stay in Yercaud.
Traveler’s Note: The winding ghat roads up to Yercaud feature multiple hairpin bends! Keep your camera ready for the sweeping valley views, and if you are prone to motion sickness, take your medication before we begin the ascent.
Day 2: Viewpoints, Temples, and the Road to the Falls
Wake up fresh, enjoy a delicious included breakfast at your hotel, and get ready to explore Yercaud’s most famous landmarks.
Exploring Yercaud’s Best Spots
After checking out, we dive straight into sightseeing. We will start with a peaceful visit to Yercaud Lake and the lush Botanical Garden. Next, prepare to be amazed by the panoramic views from Lady’s Seat, Gent’s Seat, Children’s Seat, and Pagoda Point. We will also visit the sacred Shevroy Temple to soak in some local culture and history.
Journey to Hoggenackal
In the evening, we say goodbye to the hills and proceed to Hoggenackal. This scenic 3-hour drive takes us via Salem and Dharmapuri. Upon arrival, you will check into your hotel for a comfortable overnight stay.
Pro-Tip: The viewpoints in Yercaud offer spectacular backdrops for photos. Try to wear bright, contrasting colors (like reds or yellows) to stand out beautifully against the dense green backgrounds!
Day 3: Thrilling Coracle Rides and Spiritual Evenings
Your final day is packed with aquatic adventure and spiritual serenity before we head home.
Hoggenackal Falls & Coracle Ride
After breakfast, we check out from the hotel and head to the breathtaking Hoggenackal Falls. You will get to experience the iconic Hoggenackal Falls coracle ride, floating on traditional round boats right near the cascading waters—an absolute highlight of the trip!
Isha Yoga Light & Sound Show
Following the river adventure, we will visit the magnificent Isha Yoga center to witness their captivating Light & Sound show. Later, we begin our 7-hour return journey back to Ernakulam, reaching by late night to conclude an incredible 3-day tour.
Traveler’s Note: You will almost certainly get splashed during the coracle ride at Hoggenackal Falls! Bring a waterproof bag or pouch for your electronics and carry a quick-dry towel.
