From Gandhipuram Bus stand you can take bus towards Ukkadam, From Ukkadam towards Valparai only few buses available on timing based. Better you need to take Pollachi bus, Udumalaipet bus also go through Pollachi. 

From Pollachi bus stand you need to go to opposite new Bus stand. In New bus stand every 30 minutes Valparai bus is available. From Coimbatore it takes around 3 hours to reach by bus to Valparai by through bus from Coimbatore. 

From Pollachi you can reach Valparai by 2 hours 30 minutes. From Coimbatore its about 108 kilometres to reach Valparai Town.

My suggestion if you own a car better to travel by car. So you can avoid unwanted loss of money. Another better plan is reach Valparai by Public transportation and hire a Cab in Valparai Town for sight seeing. Please be planned so that you can visit all sites. Book good resorts before itself.

Best way you can hire a cab from Coimbatore and you can use same cab for all over visit until they return drop to Coimbatore Airport or railway station.
From Coimbatore railway station to Ukkadam is about 15 minutes travel by Buses.

Enjoy your Visit.....
