Sabarimala Darshan Day Trip (Season)

Sabarimala

Sabarimala is one of the largest pilgrimage sites in the world, and the temple is open only during specific seasons, chiefly the Mandala Pooja period from mid-November to late December and Makaravilakku in mid-January. Pilgrims traditionally observe a 41-day vratham and carry an irumudikettu, and many walk the last stretch from Pamba. This day trip handles transport and the practicalities; the observance itself is personal.
