The dense forest cover of this area, shrouded in mystery and magic, starts acting as soon as you move Ooty’s Emerald Lake en direction the Upper Bhavani hamlet. And if you are lucky sufficient to be bestowed with a garrulous driver, there is no dearth of facts you will be regaled with, in the course of the pressure as much as the district. Huddled by using the Kundah Forest comprising of the Udhagai and Korakundah wooded area tiers, the journey up to Avalanche is interspersed with dense thickets and a Nilgiri tahr or two. Coimbatore has the closest airport, 88km from Ooty. Taxis ply to Avalanche on a regular basis. Government and comfort buses begin from Bangalore, Mysore and Chennai and take you to Ooty.
