We can also reach Ayapakkam from Avadi - Poonamalle High Road by taking Paruthipattu Road which joins at Koladi.

With many sources of water around it, like Ayappakkam lake, Ayanambakkam lake, Thiruverkadu lake, Paruthipattu Lake and Ambattur Lake, Ayappakkam has good ground water. Many water tankers fill water from Ayappakkam for supply to other locations.

Recreation[edit]

Camp Tonakela Association Camp Tonakela Association is located in South end of Thirumulaivoyal, North of Ayapakkam. Camp Tonakela is the brainchild of Wallace Forgie, a Canadian, who came to work with the Madras YMCA in the year 1927. As a dedicated boys’ work leader with a vast experience of outdoor camps, it was only natural that Forgie would attempt to address the deplorable lack of facilities for such activities in Madras. In the year 1938.[3]

Also we have Paruthipattu Lake near by which has been restored as eco-park and opened to public on 21 June 2019. The eco-park surrounding the lake consists of a 3-km-long walking track, children's play area, refreshment block, a central plaza for public gathering, a boat deck with three landing areas, a couple of islands for nesting birds, an open-air theatre, an administration office building, and vehicle parking lot. About 35 varieties of plants have been planted around the lake.
