General Description | |
Yercaud - a small hill station in the Shevaroy Hills near Salem set in an elevation of 1500 meters above sea level is a nice getaway from Bangalore and Chennai. The Hotel is situated in a Quiet, Remote and serene location surrounded by coffee plantations making it ideal for walks and rejuvenating oneself. Yercaud got its name from the Tamil words "yeri (pronounced: ei - ri)" and "kaadu (pronounced: ka: -du)", which translate as lake and forest, respectively. Aside from the solitary lake, the endless expense of green is all that meets the eye. Take a long walk away from the lake into the mysterious wooded hillside or climb up to the Murugan temple for a heart-stopping view of the valley, and youre guaranteed an experience as exhilarating perhaps even as mystical as you could hope for in any of the more celebrated hill stations in the country. The best time in Yercaud is in the warmer months between May and October. May and June are the months when tourist activity is high so please check availability prior planning your getaway Trip. The annual summer festival is in May when there are boat races on the artificial lake; flower shows and fruits flood the stalls. Not only is it popular with holidaymakers, but also with corporate clients. Coffee and citrus fruits, most notably oranges, are grown in abundance apart from bananas, pears and jack fruit. Scenically, Yercaud is as enchanting and picturesque as the other hill stations on the Western Ghats and trekking here can be fun. | |
