The nearest railhead is BDCR, which is actually located in Kothagudem some 40 Kms from Bhadrachalam temple and 70 Kms from Parnasala.
Pilgrims who visit the temple also go to Parnasala where Rama Sita stayed and where Maricha was killed and Sita was abducted. click here

I have seen a lot of UP, MP tourist buses here. Would be nice if this station is connected to North India by a weekly for more pilgrims to visit.
