Coonoor Travel Guide

Tea plantations, misty hills, and amazing viewpoints are the highlight of Coonoor tourism. Here is some key travel information about Coonoor food, shopping, festivals, and more:

Coonoor Weather

The weather of Coonoor in May and June, even in the peak summer season, remains pleasant for sightseeing and other outdoor activities. The temperature in May hover between 22 and 37 degrees. Humidity is lower in Coonoor due to its higher elevation in the Nilgiri Hills. Monsoon in Coonoor lasts mainly from July through October, however, rainfall is common at almost any time of the year. It’s the best season to visit Coonoor for nature lovers and budget travellers. The winter season is the most time of the year to plan a honeymoon in Coonoor. The weather of Coonoor from December through February is a welcome respite for people in Tamil Nadu. The Christmas and New Year’s holiday season is a good time to visit Coonoor, despite increased hotel prices.

Shopping in Coonoor

Coonoor offers great shopping options for people looking to pick up some souvenirs from a vacation in Tamil Nadu. The hill station has a number of shops where tourists can bargain for South Indian artefacts. Shopping lovers can buy linen and South Cotton fabrics at reasonable prices. Needlecraft shop at Singara Tea Estates is a popular shop to buy beautiful linen fabrics. Embroidered shawls, jackets, and ethnic wear, eucalyptus oil, honey, and lace-work are the best items to buy while shopping in Coonoor.

Make sure to browse through handicrafts and jewellery made by the local Toda tribe in Tamil Nadu. Foodies can pick up gourmet cheese and jams of peach, pear, and mulberry – all made and available locally. The Green Shop in Coonoor is a popular haunt to buy local tribal crafts, jewellery, and more. Do not forget to pick up organic wild honey, dried nuts, chocolates, and of course, tea.

Food in Coonoor

Being a famous hill station, Coonoor has several establishments serving traditional South Indian specialties. During the peak season in Coonoor, the restaurants offer a diverse menu of different cuisines from Italian to Mughlai. There are also some typical North Indian restaurants serving delicious meals. For vegetarians, there are plenty of restaurants in Coonoor to have a hearty meal. Idlis, dosas, sambar, rasam, pizzas, and vegetable soups are popular food in Coonoor. For non-vegetarians, biryani and seafood platters are favourite items to order. The traditional or local food in Coonoor is rice-based dishes, much like the rest of Tamil Nadu. Irrespective of the preferences, toothsome food in Coonoor is not hard to find. Street food is another option to savour while enjoying sightseeing in Coonoor.

Festivals in Coonoor

The Tea and Tourism Festival in Coonoor is held in the month of January. Many tea connoisseurs gather in Coonoor to enjoy tea tasting. The local tea plantations in the Nilgiri Mountains produce some of the better-known brands like the Orthodox, CTC, and Green Leaf. The Fruit and Vegetable Festival in Coonoor is another major event.

    Alokananda's 5 days trip to Coonoor

    We had a very pocket-friendly trip at Coorg and Ooty, thanks to Travel Triangle for arranging such a wonderful trip. The timings were perfect coinciding with the nature's intricate way of displaying it's beauty throughout our trip. We started our trip from B'lore to Coorg and reached our destination
    at night due to traffic along the way but the Jungle Hill Resort was mesmerizing and quite well kept with a 4-bedded deluxe room. We visited the spectacular Golden Temple or one of the largest Tibetan Monastery which is also known as Namdroling Monastery. It encompasses the large school for the young monks and bave beautiful small cafes and eateries and souvenir shops for the tourist to check out. We found it had a beautiful view of the jungle and mountain view in the morning. The food was on the expensive side but we had breakfast buffet included in our package. Abbey Falls and the views of the meadows of Mandal petti were breathtaking. At Puspagiri National Park, it didn't feel like we were in India that showcased the best views of Nilgiri Hills adorned with the Nilkurungi plants. Rest of the places to visit were good but their slight overpriced such as Coffee Plantation tour, Dubbare Elephant Camp. Our hotels rooms at Ooty were disappointing. Rooms received from Kemp's Cave at their neighbouring building called The Baron's who gave us rooms with dirty linens, broken window lock, malfunctioning bathroom door and intercom. It was difficult to communicate with hotel staff although the reception staff were fast in sending help. Only the linens were changed and bathroom door was fixed. Rest were not fixed during our two days stay. The sightseeing was very good especially what made our day was the toy train ride from Ooty to Coonoor. The whole place was standstill due to traffic during public holiday so we had to resort to walking down the hill to reach the Ugadamandalam Railyway Station in Ooty. Pykara Falls and Lake, Wenlock Downs are picturesque places to remember in this trip. We opted out to visit Tea Factory and Doddabetta Peak due to heavy traffic. Mr. Rahul Kumar from All India Holiday has helped us before and throughout our trip to customise it and with payments at every juncture to make it a hassle-free ordeal. He have been very hospitable, content and patient in managing our trip . Travel Triangle and team has yet again made it possible for us to collect the best memories from hills of Ooty and Coorg. The best part of this trip was the journey through Bandipur Tiger Reserve and Madumalai Tiger Reserve when heading towards Ooty from Coorg via Bangalore-Mysore-Ooty Highway. We were surprised to spots innumerous deers, peacock, peahens, monkeys, wild Elephants and Giant Indian Squirrels. The reserves are well maintained with strict rules that are followed while traveling through them. We were lucky to get the glimpse of this reserve twice and both the times we have got to spot the animals.
