Coaker’s Walk is a scenic pedestrian pathway in Kodaikanal, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding valleys, plains, and distant hills. Built in 1872 by Lt. Coaker, this elevated walkway stretches along the edge of steep slopes and is one of the most popular viewpoints in the hill station.

The paved path is lined with railings, telescopes, and resting spots, allowing visitors to enjoy the cool mountain breeze and stunning vistas at a relaxed pace.
