About Borra Caves

Borra Caves sit deep inside the Ananthagiri hills of the Araku region at around 705 metres. Inside you will find huge natural rock formations shaped by water over centuries, lit with colourful lights. A local Shivling formation makes it a spot of faith as well as nature.

Formed naturally over a million years

Limestone and flowing water created stalactites and stalagmites in different shapes that guides love to point out.

Easy to explore

A built path with steps and railings takes you through the main cave. Comfortable shoes make the walk easier.

Borra Caves timings and tickets

The caves are usually open from around 10 AM to 5 PM on all days. There is a small entry ticket and an extra charge for still and video cameras. Charges can change, so we share the latest details when you book your trip with us.

How to reach Borra Caves from Vizag

Borra Caves are about 90 km from Visakhapatnam, around 3 hours by road on the scenic ghat route to Araku. You can also reach by the Araku tourist train, which stops at Borra. We arrange a private cab with pickup from your location so you can combine the caves with Araku sightseeing.

Best time to visit Borra Caves

October to February is ideal with cool, pleasant weather for the drive and the walk. The monsoon makes the surrounding hills green and the nearby Katiki Waterfalls fuller, but the path inside can get slightly damp. Mornings are less crowded.

Travel Tips

  • Wear non-slip shoes — the cave floor can be damp
  • Carry a power bank; photos and videos drain the battery fast
  • Visit early to avoid the afternoon tour-group rush
  • Keep the camera ticket handy for photography inside
  • Combine with Katiki Waterfalls, just a short drive away
