The plan below changes to match your arrival.

  1. 1

    9:00 AM

    Yercaud Bus Stand

    Meet your driver at the Yercaud bus stand and set off at an easy pace. Yercaud is a small hill town in the Shevaroy hills, and most of the sights are close together, so the day moves comfortably without long stretches on the road.

  2. 2

    9:15 AM5 min, 1 km drive

    Yercaud Lake (Emerald Lake)

    The main lake in the middle of town, ringed by gardens and tall trees. Walk the path around the water, sit on the bund and watch the boats. Morning is calm and cool here, a good first stop before the day warms up.

  3. 3

    10:30 AM5 min, 1 km drive

    Botanical Garden

    A small, well-kept garden next to the lake with flower beds, orchids, ferns and a little pond. It is a short, pleasant walk through the grounds. Good for a slow half hour and some photos before heading up to the temple.

  4. 4

    11:30 AM20 min, 6 km drive

    Servarayan Temple

    An old hill temple at the highest point of the Shevaroy range, reached by a short walk up from the road. The shrine sits in a cave-like setting and the views over the hills are wide. Visit before the afternoon, as hill temples here often close for a few hours around midday.

  5. 5

    1:00 PM20 min, 6 km drive

    Lunch near Yercaud Lake

    Come back down to town for a relaxed lunch at one of the small eateries near the lake. Simple Tamil meals, dosas and hot filter coffee are what most places serve, and it is a good hour of rest before the afternoon loop.

  6. 6

    2:15 PM20 min, 5 km drive

    Killiyur Falls

    A waterfall on the edge of town where the water drops down the rock face into the valley. The flow is best after the rains. The path down can be slippery, so go slow and keep to the marked track. A short visit is enough.

  7. 7

    3:45 PM25 min, 8 km drive

    Pagoda Point

    A viewpoint on the eastern side of the hill with a wide look over the valleys and the plains below. There is a small pagoda-shaped structure on the rocks. Late afternoon light is the best time to be here, with the breeze picking up.

  8. 8

    5:00 PM15 min, 5 km drive

    Lady's Seat

    A rocky viewpoint above the ghat road, looking straight down the valley towards Salem. This is the classic sunset spot in Yercaud, so come in the evening and stay for the light changing over the plains. There is a small park and a telescope point nearby.

  9. 9

    6:15 PM10 min, 2 km drive

    Yercaud Bus Stand

    Drive back into town from Lady's Seat and finish at the bus stand, well before 7:00 PM. You will have seen the lake, the gardens, the hill temple, the falls and the two main viewpoints, all without rushing.
