New Year HungamaCatherin falls Trek With ATG - Registration ON


Welcoming New year 2019, fresh start, new opportunities and a whole lotta adventures around the year.


Kotagiri (Ooty range) is a hill-station in Tamilnadu nestled at a towering elevation of  5800 ft above MSL hosts various short & long duration trek trails.Trails leading to major attractions like the Catherine falls, Rangaswamy pillar, elk falls etc....

What you see above is a drone shot of the second highest double cascading  waterfalls in the Nilgiris of Tamilnadu.Dropping down from a height of approx 260 ft, the waterfalls attracts year round tourists and is a real time wildlife hot-spot.

The trail to the waterfalls and dolphin's nose view point takes us through high altitude tea plantation , shola forests and hamlets providing an undulating glimpse of the Nilgiris plantations, surely a much needed weekend escapade to celebrate New year's eve and restore our spirits from the monotonous city life.
