      One of the best ways to reach Yelagiti is by air. There is no direct flight to Yelagiri, but one can take a flight to Salem Airpor, about 156 km away. The international airports at Chennai and Bengaluru, 216 km and 194 km away, respectively, are the closest to Yealagiri. Both airports serve domestic and international flights.

      By Train

      There is no direct train to Yelagiri, so you have to take the train to Jolarpettai Junction. You can hire a cab or bus to Yelagiri Hill station from there. Jolarpettai Junction is about 21 km from Yelagiri, and Trains from major cities like Chennai, Bengaluru, and Coimbatore halt at Jolarpettai.

One can travel by bus from these major cities to Jolarpettai, Vellore, Tirupattur or Vaniyampadi, and from these cities, one can board local transport to Yelagiri.

        Anjani Vishnoi

        Bhuvneshwar

        Anjani's 5 days trip to Yelagiri

        Hotel Exp: Hotel exp was decent,food was good ,could do better in keeping some more options of North Indian food Had a payment issue at Hotel Adrak at Trivandrum where the payment was not marked as paid by the hotel agency we have to wait for checkout because of that,took a lot of time to resolve
        it. We could have missed the sighting of the last day due to the payment issue. Cab Exp: The driver was cooperative and helped in sight seeing for the first 3 days. He started showing tantrums for the sightseeing of Trivandrum and was not ready to cover the places in our itinerary. There was a lot of miscommunication between Back2Holidays and the driver regarding the payment and itinerary discussion. When we called the agent to clarify he was not happy and we had a lot of arguments with him. Agency Exp: I would like to thank Nikita from Back2Holidays for helping us cover all the places in our itinerary. She was following up with us throughout our trip. Everything was planned according to our needs, hotels were nearby the sightseeing places. We had issues with driver and at one of the hotels,we reached out to her and she made sure our trip went according to our plan coordinated with the driver and at hotel and overall our trip was a memorable one. There can be improvements done to avoid miscommunication between the agency,driver and hotels.It creates a lot of stressful situations for the guests. Our last 2 days were a bit stressful due to that.
