About the Tirupati to Tiruvannamalai road
Tiruvannamalai holds the Arunachaleswarar temple, the fire element among the Pancha Bhoota Sthalams, below Arunachala hill. The 14 km Girivalam circumambulation of the hill is done barefoot and mostly on full moon nights, which changes the whole shape of the trip.
What to know before you go
- Girivalam on Pournami night draws enormous crowds — book well ahead
- A same-day return is possible but long; many prefer an overnight halt
- Karthigai Deepam in Nov/Dec is the busiest time of year
- We can drive the Girivalam road for those who cannot walk it
