Elk Hill Murugan Temple sits atop Elk Hill in Ooty and is dedicated to Lord Muruga. Besides the temple, the hill offers panoramic views and is home to a variety of wildlife and vegetation.
For the same reason, the place is considered ideal for meditation and yoga practices. In addition to the brilliant architecture of the temple, the highlight of the place is a 40 feet tall statue of Lord Muruga constructed in brick and mortar that stands tall outside the enclosures of the temple and attracts pilgrims and devotees from far and wide. In addition to that, the temple premises also have idols of Lord Ganesha, Lord Shiva, Goddess Shakthi, Nava Kanika, Navagrahas etc.
