Overview
Belum Caves, the second-largest cave system in the Indian subcontinent located in Andhra Pradesh's Kurnool district, is a remarkable natural formation of limestone caves stretching over 3.5 km, with sections open to visitors featuring stalactite and stalagmite formations, underground passages, and chambers with names like Pataalaganga and Simhadwaram. Given the substantial 820 km distance, a Miles Tours and Travels cab from Mumbai takes approximately 14 to 15 hours, travelling via NH65 through Solapur and Kurnool, making this a long-distance trip best planned with an overnight halt along the way or a full day-and-night drive with an experienced, well-rested driver. The route passes through the Deccan plateau's characteristic dry, open landscape, with Solapur and the Andhra Pradesh border towns serving as natural rest stops. Belum Caves themselves are a geological wonder, formed by underground river action over thousands of years, and the developed portion is well-lit with walkways, making it accessible to most visitors despite being deep underground in places. Because of the distance involved, we strongly recommend treating this as a multi-day trip, combining the caves with other Andhra Pradesh attractions such as Gooty Fort or the pilgrimage town of Ahobilam, and Miles Tours and Travels can help plan a comfortable multi-day itinerary with proper rest stops for both driver and passengers. Our drivers are experienced with long interstate highway driving and plan the trip with scheduled breaks, ensuring safety is never compromised for speed on a journey of this length.
NH 44 via Pune and Kurnool Andhra PradeshHistory & Significance
Belum Caves were used by Buddhist and Jain monks as meditation retreats around the 4th-5th century BCE. The caves were rediscovered in 1884 by British surveyor Robert Bruce Foote and explored in detail by German speleologist Herbert Daniel Gebauer in 1982-84. The AP Tourism department developed them for public access in 2002.
