Emerald Lake, Enchanting Natural Beauty

When the weather gets too hot to bear, all you want is to move for some time at least to a place that is cool and breezy. The best get away for anyone and everyone from the boiling sun would be a hill station. Resting deep inside Nilgiri Hills, Emerald Lake is a popular scenic destination. Take a trip to all places to visit in Ooty for experiencing the grandeur of nature.

Emerald Lake is loved by kids, adults and anyone who admires the prettiness of the hills and lakes. Emerald surroundings with that pleasant wind are definitely going to make your soul pleased. Vast meadows and the brimming beauty of this location will make you feel like you are in heaven. The changing colour of the sky reflects on the water surface. This scene is breathtaking. You won’t find any shops near the lake so we advise you to carry your own snacks and beverages.

Many migratory birds can be seen flocking around the lake during the entire year. The chipping of the birds and the wind on the water surface creating ripples is a refreshing sight. Sunrise and sunset is the ideal instance to experience the utmost gorgeousness of the lake which is true to its name. While returning from places to visit in Ooty, don’t forget to purchase fresh tea leaves from the tea plantations around the Emerald Lake. The aroma of the tea can be smelt in the air. A favorite picnic spot, Emerald lake is a must-visit for all the people who love solitude.
