Ootacamund is a popular hill station located in the Nilgiri Hills. The origin of the name Ootacamund is obscure, but “mund” is the Badaga word for a Toda village, and it is probably a corruption of the Badaga name for the central region of the Nilgiri Plateau. Another likely origin of the stem of the name (”Ootaca”) comes from the local language Tamil where “Otta-Cal” literally means “Single Stone”. This is perhaps a reference to a sacred stone revered by the local Toda people. Udhagamandalam is a more recent official Tamil name for the town. Ooty stands at an approximate height of 7,440 feet (2,268 metres) above sea level.
