One remarkable aspect about the pilgrimage to Sabarimala Temple, undertaken between November and January is that the pilgrims cut across caste, creed and social status and have one sole impetus driving them-that of being able to seek the blessings of the presiding deity. The devotees wear black dhotis and carry the traditional offerings on their heads. The devotees have to trek a treacherous trail from the base of the hill to the Sabarimala Temple. The final eighteen steps are considered to be most important parts of the pilgrimage. The temple dome is covered with gold and the devotees break the coconuts before climbing the steps.

One of the major highlight of the Sabarimala Temple is the Sabarimala Temple festival that is dedicated to Lord Ayappan who is held in great veneration all across India. The other two important pujas conducted in the Sabarimala Temple include the Mandal Puja and the Makara Sankranti Puja. The Sabarimala temple stays closed during the rest of the year except for the first five days of every Malayalam month and during Vishu.
