Avalanche Valley Named after an `avalanche’- a landslide, really- in 1823, Avalanche is a riot of shola trees, rhododendrons, orchids, magnolias and a trout stream: absolutely lovely

Avalanche Dam & Lake is located at a distance of 25 km from ooty. A place that should not be missed. A dam called Canada dam since Canada funded it. An exotic experience of mountain trekking could be realized in this place.

Also there is a Trout Farm near Avalanche Dam which is the only place in India where Trout fish grows, Trout fish grows only in unpolluted waters.
