    This is another view point in Yercaud. From here we can some part of Salem district. It is an amazing view. The fog here at evening is a very pleasant feeling.

    Wonderful view point in Yercaud. Perfect for viewing the sunset. Located between children's seat as well as ladies seat. Amazing views on the valley from this point. Must visit place if you are in Yercaud.

    Gent's seat is a part of the Yercaud Botanical Gardens and the name can only be explained by its proximity to the Lady's Seat. Like Lady's seat, this place also offers a great view of the surrounding mountains and its valleys, and moreover there are no eateries that commercialize the place.

    Wow an excellent view point filled with clouds and mist just near to ladys seat, you have to ascend 55 steps to reach the place,nice windy with clouds hitting on us as mist. But travellers have spoiled the place but throwing waste all over the place, full of non degradable waste all over the place. And government too is not taking any step to clean it. entry fee totally together for gents seat, children seat and garden is there.

    The view from here is amazing. 15-30 mins would suffice at this place.

    Ok, but we need to walk and uplift some steps, better old age people will stay down, just the view mountain other than nothing, and chill air high, thats it. Thank you 🙏❤🌹

    It's a nice place, We had felt the mist while gone to this place. Visiting this ப்ளஸ்ein the evening during sunrise and sunset is good.

  • 3/5 An00p 6 months ago on Google
    Nice view point better to go either at sun rise time or at sunset time. No snacks option available here. Not crowded at all as people return from down point and a very few people come here. Place is not very clean. There is no entry fee also parking has to be done on road side

  • 2/5 Ram G. 6 months ago on Google
    There is nothing here except a good view of the Mettur dam and forest below. An entry fee of 30 bucks per adult is collected. This fee is only for the view point and the park area. The same view from Ladies seat, except that it is higher point. One has to climb around 30 steep steps. Cars can go to this point. If u r staying in Sterling resorts, this place can be accessed from the backside car park and one need not pay the entry fee. The view is good though. On a misty day, it feels very peaceful breating in the mist and basking in the mild cold air.

  • 4/5 Kanishka J. 5 months ago on Google
    We visited Gents Seat and nearby areas, during our stay at Sterling Resort, with family. 1) Scenery: Magnificent atmosphere, with the perfect view of the whole valley & Salem city below. 2) Connectivity: Nicely connected via road transport with nearby tourist spots & important cities. 3) Food: Not much. But few shops at nearby Ladies Seat can offer you tea/coffee & few things to munch. 4) Attraction: Make sure to wait for the Sunset, and then dusk after sunset, glorious views.

    Visited gents seat in 2022. It's a nice view point near the botanical garden in Yercaud. It was misty the day I visited, so could not see much. There is an entry ticket for the botanical garden and you have to climb a few steps up for the gents seat. There are two small gazebos to avoid the rain. I had visited on a weekday so it was empty. There is parking available near the botanical garden entrance towards children's seat.

  • 4/5 Sumit S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place just before lady's seat. Few nice view points built in the place so you can sit and relax with the amazing view. Lesser crowded with no monkey problems.

  • 5/5 Aravind 1 year ago on Google
    Gent's Seat is located in the Yercaud II Botanical Gardens. Near by there a Ladies seat, childrens park, Silk Gardens and more. There are many shops to buy spices and chocolates. Spices are really good and reasonable price. No parking tickets for Gent's seat. But for Botanical Garden and Silk Garden there will be a some chargers.

    It’s nice view from this place. Located adjacent to Ladies Seat View Point. There is some botanical garden before going on top. Surrounded by lush green trees and Decorated garden.

    Hill View point in Yercaud.. It's good to visit in the evening, the view of sunset is wonderful from here.. This place is more better than ladies seat.. if you visit in season time, you can really enjoy the weather here and it’s an amazing place to spend time with family and friends for a day.One of the places to be visited in Yercaud..

    Amazing climate.., best view point in yercaud must view and feel the nature.

  • 5/5 Rajesh K. 2 years ago on Google
    Better than lady's seat. Very peaceful, clean and calm. Less crowded. Good and clear viewpoint. Children's park and silk museum nearby. Both are worthy too. I will suggest to slip lady's seat and visit this place, it's only 0.5 km from lady's seat.

  • 5/5 aravind S. 2 years ago on Google
    Best place in Yarcard. Chill breeze and best to visit for Sunset 🌅🌆 view.. 👌

  • 5/5 vijeta v. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the best View Point in Yercaud. It is located just 2 Km from Lake and very near to Sterling Resort. Gents Seat is part of Rose Garden, Silk Farm Garden. Same entry ticket can be used for all 3 sites. View from top was mesmerizing. We went there during Sunset time and view was amazing. Wind was chill.

  • 3/5 Rajendra Kumar J. 2 years ago on Google
    This view point in Yercaud is better than Lady's seat view point.

  • 4/5 Jai g. 2 years ago on Google
    Honestly this view is better than ladys seat.. Its more open view probably its d reason.. U have to climb few steep steps to reach but its worth of doing it..

  • 5/5 Alf J. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a beautiful spot to visit, the view is amazing. I would like to mention that the place is kept clean and they do charge an entry free of 40rs per person. There's also a car parking inside the location.
