Question

Wots the best possible way to go to ooty?

Answer 1

Apart from the above mentioned.

You can also take the road from Mysore, which takes through the Bandipur forests. It was pleasurable road trip, when I last travelled.

So it depends alot on which side are you going from.

If you are going from Coimbatore side Best thing to do is to go to Mettupalayam and take the train to Ooty. The train is slow as it has to climb the hills, but it is a pleasure going through the hills. Several movies were shot at the train stations here and show the train - that scenic it is.  Coming back you can take the road.
