- Dru RNewark, New Jersey16 contributionsBeautiful place...Beautiful place. I went on a group day-trip from Madurai so between travel to and from and stopping off at various spots on the way we had a very short time to actually spend at Kodaikanal. I would recommend at least one night there to really enjoy the area. The view from Coakers walk is breathtaking if it's not cloudy (or Misty), just take your time to enjoy. There are quite a few restaurants and I had a quick bite at a Punjabi restaurant after my walk.Visited May 2023Written May 30, 2023
- Swati bhingale2 contributionsGo early morning to see the heavenly viewI & my sister visited coakers walk early morning when there were only us. With minimal ticket fare,you can enter here. The view is serene. The chirping birds, marvellous view & soothing breeze made our day. I recommend to visit this place earliest. You can shop the stuff here & trust me they are better and cheaper than rest of Kodaikanal shopping placesVisited March 2023Travelled with friendsWritten July 14, 2023
- Roy M JThiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), India254 contributionsA pleasant walk through the fog/mist facing a beautiful valley view..Coakers walk gives you a pleasant walk through the edge of a cliff, which either gives you a stunning view of the valley below or an amazing fog. Take some cash in hand as there is plenty of opportunity to shop for dress, jewelleries, photos, show case items, and even get a tattoo. There are a couple of points where you could get a binocular/telescopic view of the valley for a small entry fee. Overall, it's a nice experience.Visited August 2023Travelled with familyWritten September 2, 2023
- MenuloneMumbai, India2,983 contributionsHill station with great viewsThe hill station is located at the top of a mountain, offering stunning views of the surrounding area (provided the clouds are not there). It is a popular tourist destination and has a variety of activities to offer visitors. The best time to visit the hill station is in the morning, when the clouds are less likely to be present. Parking can be a challenge, so it is best to arrive early. The hill station is big enough to handle a large crowd, but it can get crowded during peak season. There are a variety of eateries and shops at the hill station, so you can find something to eat and drink to your liking. There are also a variety of points where you can take amazing pictures. As the name suggests, it requires a bit of walking, so wear comfortable shoes. Overall, the hill station is a great place to visit if you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the views. Just be sure to plan your visit accordingly to avoid the crowds and the clouds.Visited December 2022Travelled with familyWritten September 4, 2023

It's an easy 20 minute walk offering scenic views of the surrounding areas, framed with mountains, tea plantations and quaint villages. Entrance fee is very cheap!

This is a lovely walk, when we went there was mist hanging in the valley and over the mountains but we still enjoyed the views. Gorgeous views over the mountains and parts of Kodaikanal.

Book a A/c room which should help you to survive on nights. you would get jerkins and sweaters on the road side shops, Kodaikanal , you should be able to manage the cold.

It will be pleasant in May. However, it is wise to keep a light jerkins or shawl if you plan to go for an evening stroll.

Depends on the purpose of visit. For honeymoon, perfect time to visit. Foggy and cold whether. But for sight seeing would be bit hard due to thick fog. All places would be open for tourists.
