A Weekend Trekking and Camping Experience in the Avocado Hill of Kodaikanal
We are happy to announce the opening of treks around Kodaikanal. With a vision that everyone must trek, we have always wanted to find a campus around the lovely folds of Kodai. This gives our trekkers in the Southern part of our country a chance to take a weekend off and trek in the lovely Shola forests and grasslands of Kodai.
You’ll love our campus in Kodaikanal. It is surrounded by hills on all sides — hills that climb right out of our camping grounds. There are some lovely trekking trails within walking distance of our campus. One can hike to the summit of a nearby hill, watch the sun rise from behind the mounds or take a dip in a nearby waterfall. You can also savour a cup of fresh coffee grown in the nearby plantations as you take in a panoramic view of the Elephant Valley.
Located in a remote area of Kodaikanal, just 20km from the main town of Kodai, the campus is easily accessible by road. It’s just an overnight journey away from most metro cities.
The Avacado Hill trek is an ideal addition to the experience. It is suitable for any age group and especially for families, friends, and colleagues to start trekking.
