How to go to Sabarimala?

There are three ways to reach Sabarimala, by Train, by Flight and by Bus. There is no direct Railway Line connecting other towns to Sabarimala. If you prefer Train journey then you can arrive at Kottayam , Thiruvalla or Chengannur Railway stations and from there by bus to Pampa. Kottayam (KTYM) Railway Station - Train Help

For other states pilgrims the best option of travel is travel via train. For them Kottayam railway station is the most convenient stop followed by Thiruvalla and Chenganur for easy access to Sabarimala. Some trains end their trip at Ernakulam which is to the northwest of Kottayam. Pilgrims getting down at Ernakulam will need to proceed to Kottayam by boarding another train for an additional journey of about 1½ hours. They may also proceed by road to reach Sabarimala. Some trains may go from Ernakulam to Kollam or Thiruvananthapuram via Alappuzha and these will not touch Kottayam. Pilgrims traveling in these trains may need to get down at Alappuzha and then proceed by road through Changanassery and Erumely, or else, may need to get down at Kayamkulam and proceed by road via Adoor. For pilgrims coming from South of Sabarimala by train, the best stations to get down are Thiruvalla or Chenganur and then travel about 90 kms by road to reach Sabarimala.
