In ancient times Ahobilam was trekked only by foot, and no road was there. Now daily trucks and Busses rush the way up to Upper Ahobilam.
But 15 years ago i have walked all trough Ahobilam by foot and i discovered a ancient walkpath from lower ahobilam up to Upper Ahobilam (around 5 - 6km). One can find even the walking steps from time to time. On the path you come across two ancient mandapas and one overgrown Kunda in Mandapa Style. In olden days when the Utsava deities where coming or going from up to down Ahobilam, the Lord with his servants (archakas and helpers) rested under those places. This time i wanted to find the railtrack again and we had success! But the condition of those 3 Mandapas were horrorfying! It needs only few more years and they totally fall apart.
