this tourist attraction is promoted as the highest peak in south india. though it was a beautiful place there was nothing extraordinary. the approach could be better with better management by the government. it is advisable to reach there before 9 am to avoid the massive traffic jams and crowds.
View from the peak is good. The roads are terrible. Small cars will hit the floor very often. Parking space is very limited, will have to struggle to find space especially during peak season.
It seemed like all the people from the states of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala had come to the peak. There was a fight for parking and had to park halfway downhill and walk all the way up. Couldn't enjoy any views coz everyone was pushing you. Didnt take any snaps coz inwas busy taking care of my pockets and...

Beautiful views and good tribal food! Very clean tourist location. Relax, let go. Talk to the Indian/local tourists - they want pictures with you! Skip the market, just have some beans, buy some tea and enjoy! While you are in Ooty, book a trek through the tea plantations and eat at an authentic tribal restaurant - this is India. Let...

The view this place offers is good but the roads leading uphill are bad and moving on is a very slow process. No parking attenders, you park where you want, taxis have hoarded the main parking area and are not obliging to other private cars. Make sure you carry an umbrella to avoid getting rain lashed.
Here all those who come to Ootty will go,especially we went while the Annual Horticulture Flower show was on in full season summers.If low seaon one can enjoy a binocular view take One,of the Nilgiris all around this vantage height,that too from a tower built for that.
The peak is the second highest in the Nilgiri Mountain Range and is 9 km from ooty. There is a telescope tower to view the far off mountains
For all the effort and the badly maintaned last 5 km of narrow steep mountain road which is jammed in a heavy tourist season the doddabetta ride is an adventure you can ask for. Being the highest view point you have a good view of neighbouring towns..the telescopic view may be interesting for the kids. On the way to the...

Horrible road leading to Dodabetta. The car was nearly smoking by the time we got there. Parking situation also not good.views are good, but is it really worth the nightmare road trip - I think not ! The surroundings can be better maintained and the snack shops could really use a good scrubbing. Overall, was disappointed.
