Wenlok Downs 9th mile - Ooty - Sahyadri Samadhan

Also called Wenlock Downs, 9th Mile Ooty is a scenic tourist spot, 15 km (i.e. 9 miles) away from Ooty. The location boasts of vast meadows sprawling out to, what seems like infinity.

Once upon a time, it acted as a hunting ground for the British and the Europeans. But now, 9th Mile is one of the most spectacular tourist spots in Ooty. The place also appeared in many Indian movies like Deewana, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Raja Hindustani and others. And the locals, thus, nicknamed 9th Mile as Shooting Medu.

This shooting spot in Ooty is a part of the Wenlock Downs, and together with 6th mile, 9th Mile Ooty adds up to the beauty of the town’s landscape.

9th Mile Shooting Point Ooty offers you breathtaking and unobstructed views of the Nilgiris afar and acts as the perfect spot to spend a few hours away from the noisy city life. Climb up the view point to adore the 360-degree views of the neighbourhood.

The area is dotted with Shola forests and as gorgeous as these grasslands are, so relaxing the drive towards it is.
