It is a charming place situated amidst scenic natural surroundings overlooking the lake. Yercaud is a tiny place, there is nothing much to do here except admire nature in all her bounty. We spent the first day exploring the lake. Yercaud boasts of a striking lake and it is the center of attraction. We had a lovely boat ride and the boatman was nice enough to make a garland for us with the lotus stems.
Lotus abounds the lake and is a beauty to behold.
We then went to the Anna Park near the lake, a miniscule version of a park but good enough to spend some time. The next day we decided to hire a Tata Sumo that would take us around Yercaud. The driver was a conscientious man who made sure we got value for the money. He first took us to the Shevaroyan Temple built by the tribals. Enroute he showed us the Bears' cave, which had been a favourite haunt of bears a long time ago.
