Chitharal is a small village situated at a distance of
7 Kms from
Marthandam and around 45 Kms, from Kanyakumari. The village is
accessible by
road from Kuzhithurai via Arumanai, a distance of about 12 kms.
From Chitaral junction there is a county road (1-2 km) running upto the
foot of the malikovil temple(That's how the villagers call about the
monument). The trekking path is in good condition, winding up to a
distance of half a kilometer lands the visitor at the cave temple entry
point.
