Worth a stop and the small trek. Quite romantic. Offers 360 degree view of the place. Go there and sit for a while to meditate.

Ketti Valley View

Reviewed By Ronit1710 - Mumbai, India

The valley view point is simply amazing and will leave you in awe of the natural beauty that you would get to witness in the form of Fog covered mountain peaks and the lush green valley with a few quaint little houses spread between those trees. There is also a telescope room from where you get to see a 150 year old church located in the valley. The telescope gives you a nice view of the church. Just an addition of a seating place or something would make this place even more interesting. This is a must visit destination en-route coonoor

Dolphin's Nose

Reviewed By Aran2005 - Utrecht, The Netherlands

It is a tourist spot, but not crowded at all (maybe only in the weekend). There is a viewpoint with great views of the surrounding mountains and tea plantations.Also monkeys stay at this place. Food stalls and a lot of photographers who can make your photos in traditional clothes and with a basket when you are working in the tea plantations. 5 to 10 minutes and your photo is printed. No problem if you ask them to take some photos with your own camera or mobile. It's definitely worth to visit this place.

Lamb's Rock

Reviewed By karang958 - Mumbai, India

Comes on the way to the dolphin nose so its a good idea to visit this place. The views are good and the hike to the top is very nice as it gives you a chance to walk in the forest with really tall trees. It's definitely better than the dolphin nose so avoid the later if you are in hurry.
