Chennai to Trichy Traffic Information
For a Chennai to Trichy road trip, there are two main routes to consider, each offering its attractions and travel experiences.
The first and most direct route is via NH38 and NH32. It covers approximately 330 km and takes around 5.5 hours under normal traffic conditions. This route passes through Chengalpattu, Tindivanam, Villupuram, and Perambalur before reaching Trichy.
Along the way, notable attractions include the Kishkinta Amusement Park near Varadharajapuram and the Arignar Anna Zoological Park in Vandalur, making it an ideal route for families and leisure travellers. The road conditions along NH38 and NH32 are excellent, with well-maintained highways and regular amenities such as petrol stations and eateries.
On this route you will find a variety of dining options to choose from. Recommended eateries include Faruuzi Multi Cuisine in Urapakkam, known for its Middle Eastern dishes, and Hotel Aaryas in Tindivanam, which offers delicious South Indian fare.
Another route heads via NH38 and offers a longer but equally scenic journey spanning approximately 401 km and taking around 7.5 hours. This route passes through Sriperumbudur, Arcot, Arani, and Gingee before merging with NH32 near Villupuram and continuing to Trichy. Along this route, you can visit cultural landmarks like the Kamakshi Amman Temple and Kailasanathar Temple in Kanchipuram and historical sites like Gingee Fort in Tiruvannamalai.
Although longer in the distance, Route 2 offers more sightseeing opportunities and diverse culinary experiences, including local specialities like biryanis at Dindigul Thalappakatti in JJ Nagar and traditional South Indian meals at Aswins Veg Restaurant in Perambalur.
Both routes feature tolls and are accessible year-round, with NH38 and NH32 generally experiencing smoother traffic flow compared to NH38 alone.
