How to reach Kanipakam Vinayaka Swamy Devasthanam

It is in Chitoor.

You can reach chittoor by air, rail or road.

There are trains that travel via Katpadi or tirupati, but do not touch Chittoor. In such cases, Katpadi (just 35km from Chittoor) or Tirupati (70 km from Chittoor), are convenient points to alight. From Katpadi/Tirupati, you can reach Chittoor by train or bus.

This is where the great lord Ganapathy Temple is situated. The place is very important for all Hindus. The town has become more popular since the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam(TTD) board has taken over the place. Most of the piligrims visiting tirupathi visit the temple.

The Temple is open in the regular hours. But it is best to visit in the morning hours from morning 6.00AM to 11AM. There is usually a very big crowd. So be ready to stand in line for an hour or so. Wednesdays are a bit more crowded.

Get in
From Tirupathi the place is around 2 hours jorney by bus. There are APSRTC buses every few minutes shuttling between Tirupathi and Kanipakkam.

Sleep
There are not many good hotels to stay there. This is mostly due to the fact that Tirupathi and Chitoor towns are near to this place. So you could probably look to stay in those towns.
