Yelagiri is a hill station located about 100km from Vellore. It is a good place to getaway from the Vellore heat. Though there is not much to see in Yelagiri, apart from the lake and a trek through the forest to the top of the hill, it is a lovely place to relax and unwind especially for those who want a weekend to spend with the family, this is an excellent place, as even mobile phones don't work there! tourists are advised not to travel up or down late at night due to safety reasons, especially if the weather is rainy, as there has been frequent incidents of road blocks due to falling rocks loosened by rain. |
