Rolling green hills, wide skies and film locations
Wenlock Downs is a vast area of grass-covered hills about nine miles from Ooty. The open landscape, winding roads and few buildings make it one of the most scenic drives in the area, and it has appeared in many films.
The weather changes fast, so a light jacket is useful even in summer.
See it as part of a planned itinerary with transport, stay and a trip coordinator.
