About Pollachi
Pollachi: the coconut and jaggery town beside the Anamalai hills, forty minutes south of Coimbatore. What draws visitors is its coconut groves, the Thursday cattle market and the Anamalai tiger reserve beyond.
After the drop, guests often head to:
Best months: October to March. Valparai and Topslip need a forest-gate check and a daylight drive; we plan departure times around it.
Pollachi is the entry to the Valparai ghat road and to the Palani and Munnar roads, so it is a common first stop on hill trips.
We drop at any address in Pollachi; frequent drop points are Dr. Mahalingam Road, Udumalpet Road, Kovai Road, Mahalingapuram and Anamalai Road, and the station or stand at Pollachi Junction railway station and Pollachi bus stand.
Pickup in Salem
Pickup anywhere in Salem is included in the fare. People often start from Fairlands, Hasthampatti, Four Roads, Ammapet, Shevapet and Suramangalam. We also serve Salem Junction railway station, Salem new bus stand and Salem Airport at Kamalapuram.
Salem is a pass-through for most Chennai, Bangalore and Coimbatore drives, and the six-lane bypass lets cars skip the centre completely. For Yercaud pickups, note that the ghat road is steep and slow; plan an extra forty minutes.
