    A quick way is to catch the early 6 am bus from the Tirupati depot; the 45 minute ride keeps you out of the midday heat. If you’re already near the airport, a cab takes about 35 minutes and you can hop off right at the base of the hill. Pack a small water bottle, wear a brimmed hat, and start at the main gate where the shaded walkways are easiest to navigate before the sun climbs. If you need a place to stay after, the Alexander Luxury Hotel in Anantapur is about 27 km away and has good reviews.
