Planning a spiritual journey to Tirupati Balaji from Kolhapur by train? For devotees and families looking for an affordable and comfortable way to travel, the train can be an excellent option.

The Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple at Tirumala is one of India’s most important pilgrimage destinations. Tirupati is well connected by road, rail and air, making it accessible to devotees travelling from different parts of Maharashtra. TTD officially confirms that pilgrims can reach Tirupati by train, bus, flight and other modes of transport.
For travelers from Kolhapur, travelling by train can be particularly convenient because it avoids the fatigue of a long road journey while allowing families to travel together.
Current railway listings show direct Kolhapur (KOP) to Tirupati service on the Haripriya Express on certain schedules, although train days, timings, availability and ticket classes should always be checked for your exact travel date before booking.

Kolhapur Railway Station → Tirupati Railway Station → Hotel → Tirumala Darshan → Local Temple Visits → Tirupati Railway Station → Kolhapur
