The cave is essentially an ashram in the shape of a perfect ‘OM’ located on the eastern slope of the famous Arunachala hill. It is perched on a small peak just below the Skandasram cave.
There are two routes to reach the Virupaksha cave. One is through Ramana Ashram. The other option is to walk from Thiruvannamalai Temple to the cave. There are also some trekking routes in the area.

Silence, is what you will relish inside this cave. The most perfect place to meditate. Before you climb up, make sure you have all the necessary and essential items, especially your water bottle. You are expected to see monkeys on your way up.
