Our weekend adventure with Travel2Ooty was absolutely amazing! We joined the guided Ooty forest trek, and the experience was both thrilling and peaceful. The best trekking routes in Ooty took us through dense sholas and open meadows. We even spotted a Nilgiri langur! It’s easily one of the top trekking experiences in Ooty. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for Ooty adventure tours with safety and comfort.

If you're into nature and offbeat trails, this is the best trekking tour in Ooty hands down. The jeep ride to the base point added excitement to the trip, and the Ooty forest hiking experience was rich with bird sounds, wildlife sightings, and misty paths. The trek is moderate and suitable even if you’re not a pro. Just make sure to wear good shoes and carry a water bottle.

This was my first time trekking in Tamil Nadu, and I must say, Ooty trekking for beginners is ideal with Travel2Ooty. The team was professional, the route was scenic, and we felt safe throughout. The guide also gave us a birds pamphlet and trail map, which was a nice touch. The trekking permit and guide fee in Ooty were all included in the package, which made planning hassle-free.

What a hidden gem! I didn't expect Ooty forest trekking to be this diverse—rolling grasslands, cool mountain breeze, and a complete disconnect from the city noise. The trekking trail near Avalanche offered stunning views of Mukurthi Peak and Upper Bhavani. The guide knew every bird call and animal sign, which made the trek even more special. I’d say this is a must-do if you're exploring nature treks in Ooty.
