#Chennimalai #Murugantemple #ChennimalaiMurugan This temple is at a distance of approximately 25 - 30km from Erode Busstand, and hardly 13.km from Perunthirai busstand. Good connectivity of public transport is seen, also there are mini bus services till the top of the Chennimalai... By Trek one has to climb 1300 foot steps to reach the hill top, at the foot of the hills witness Idumban, and then proceed, in route there is Aathi Vinayagar temple, then move to the top to witness the divine supremacy of the Siragiri Lord Murugan. After the Moolavar sannidhi, there are Valli - Deiyvanai temple, followed by Pinnakau Siddhar cave. Temple architecture is grand, premises are clean and neat, a spectacular view of Erode - Coimbatore can be seen from hill top, also beware of monkeys you can see them more often trying to grab your eatbles. Month of visit : December Time : Morning 9 The floating population was moderate Avoid trekking bw 10-12

It's one of the oldest temples in this area. There is a belief that it was built even before the Palani temple. An entry ticket to this hill is 20 rupees for a car. A mini bus is in operation to reach the temple which is located on the top of the hill. A few hairpin bends and a slop. The temple is very clean, calm and beautiful.

A very good temple and a nice drive to reach there. You can travel by own vehicle until the top of the hill or the temple entrance. There are MONKEYS around, so carrying anything in carrybags or snacks is risky. Make sure to keep your vehicle windows closed.

Chennimalai murugan temple have 1300+ steps. It's very easy to climb, I reached temple just 15 mins in walking steps. Steps and road ways are both covered green.and also visited pinnakku siththar cave. its one of the memorable dharsan for me. Thanks for read my review and I suggest you to get chennimalai murugan dharshan.

Super, devotional Many surprises like sidhar cave. Roads + steps available for easy access to temple. Temple is very clean and claim No tea shop near the temple Good clean rest room. Overall satisfaction

Though they charge rs.20 to drive the car to the hill there's no one to regulate the parking.. As usual free dharsan takes time, there rs.20 n rs.50 dharsan which are faster n can worship the lord little nearer.. Behind lord Murugan if you claim about 50 - 60 steps there's a sithar cave, good to sit n meditate.. More monkeys are there so if there's any plan to carry food or even flower to offer to lord be careful.

I went early Morning around 7 and it was not crowded. I parked the car at the foothill and hiked all the way up. Not gonna lie, it was a tough hike but plenty of shades to sit and enjoy the flowers and the animals. Be careful with the bags though, there are aggressive gang of monkeys that nearly got my bag away. I had to put my bag under my shirt in order for them to leave me. Even then one of them was trying it's best. They ar every bold. You can also drive up too. There is a car park up the hill with plenty of room. The temple itself is very nice too. I recommend going in the mornings or evenings.

We went to the hill and had darshan of Lord Murugan. It takes a thousand eyes to see Murugan in Vibhuti Alangarm. Don't miss to enjoy the antics of the monkeys. Parking under trees. Clean toilet facilities.
