'''Dolphin's Nose''' Viewpoint is a tourist spot in [[Coonoor]], [[The Nilgiris District]], [[Tamil Nadu]]. Dolphin's Nose is well over 1,550 Meter (5075 Feet) above sea level, 10 km from Coonoor and is a spectacular spot to visit.<ref name=a>{{cite web|url=http://www.coonoor.org/famous-points-to-see-in-coonoor.html|title=See|publisher=coonoor.org|accessdate=2011-09-20|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111006071308/http://www.coonoor.org/famous-points-to-see-in-coonoor.html|archivedate=2011-10-06|df=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.himalayanquest.com/Coonoor|title= Coonoor |publisher=himalayanquest.com|accessdate=2011-09-20}}</ref><ref name=c>{{cite web|url=http://www.coonoor.org/|title=Coonoor|publisher=coonoor.org|accessdate=2011-09-20|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110903013232/http://www.coonoor.org/|archivedate=2011-09-03|df=}}</ref> The tip of the peak resembles a [[dolphin]]'s nose, hence the name Dolphin's Nose. It is an enormous rock formation that is entirely unique. There are gigantic ravines found both to the left and right of Dolphin's Nose and there is a view of inspiring Catherine Falls with its continuing stream several thousand metres below which is located a relatively short distance away opposite of the Dolphin's Nose.<ref name=a/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.holidayiq.com/Dolphins-Nose-Coonoor-Sightseeing-338-2441.html|title=About Dolphins Nose |publisher=holidayiq.com|accessdate=2011-09-20}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mustseeindia.com/Coonoor-Dolphin-s-Nose/attraction/12753|title=Dolphin's Nose, Coonoor|publisher=mustseeindia.com|accessdate=2011-09-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111008112318/http://www.mustseeindia.com/Coonoor-Dolphin-s-Nose/attraction/12753|archive-date=8 October 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref> Best part of spot are the hairpin turns and tea plantations on the way<ref name=b>{{cite web|url=http://www.visitindia.org.in/tamil%20nadu/coonoor.html|title= you are here - Home - South India - Tamil Nadu - Coonoor|publisher=visitindia.org.in|accessdate=2011-09-20}}</ref><ref name=cb>{{cite web|url=http://www.brindavanschools.org/trek-to-dolphins-nose-view-point-on-25-jun-11.htm|title=Report on a Trek to Dolphins Nose on 25 June 2011|publisher=brindavanschools.org|accessdate=2011-09-20|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120111115107/http://www.brindavanschools.org/trek-to-dolphins-nose-view-point-on-25-jun-11.htm|archivedate=11 January 2012|df=}}</ref>
