Sri Kashi Vishweshwara Temple
A long flight of steps leads to this Shiva temple, known as Dakshina Kashi or the Kashi of the South. Its pond is fed by a continuous stream of water flowing from the mouth of a stone Nandi, and the source of that spring has never been traced. Devotees drink the water and believe it has healing qualities. The temple has a main linga with smaller lingas around it, and local legend links the site to Parashurama. Watch your belongings, as the monkeys on the steps are bold.

Watch your belongings, as the monkeys on the steps are bold.
Anthargange Caves and Trek
Behind the temple, a steep trail climbs through huge granite boulders stacked into natural caves and tunnels. The route is about three kilometres and moderately demanding, and some passages mean crawling or squeezing between rocks. Guided treks, including the popular anthargange night trek, are run through the Karnataka forest department's eco-tourism booking system, and access rules change from time to time, so book through official channels and check current conditions. October to March is the best season for the anthargange trek.
Summit Views and Hill Villages
The top of the hill opens onto wide views of Kolar town, lakes and farmland, and sunrise here is the reason most groups start so early. Several small villages sit on the plateau, including Therahalli, and the walk past them shows a slice of rural Kolar life rarely seen from the highway. Carry water, a torch and sturdy shoes, and avoid carrying food openly.
Kolaramma Temple
Kolar's presiding goddess is worshipped in this ancient Dravida-style temple, renovated by Rajendra Chola in the tenth century and later by the Vijayanagara kings. Devotees view the fierce form of the goddess through a mirror rather than directly. A separate shrine to Chelamma, the scorpion goddess, is believed to protect against stings.
Someshwara Temple
A short drive from Kolaramma, the Someshwara Temple is a fine example of fourteenth-century Vijayanagara art, with carved pillars, a large kalyana mandapa and a tall entrance tower. It is protected by the Archaeological Survey of India and is a must for anyone interested in temple architecture.
Kotilingeshwara Temple
At Kammasandra, about 30 kilometres from Kolar, the kotilingeshwara temple is famous for its giant 108-foot linga and 35-foot Nandi, surrounded by lakhs of smaller lingas installed by devotees. Eleven other shrines sit within the complex. Many families book a bangalore to kotilingeshwara cab that includes Anthargange on the way.
Avani
About 32 kilometres from Kolar, Avani is linked by legend to the Ramayana and to Sita's stay at the hermitage of sage Valmiki. The Ramalingeshwara temple group here dates to the Nolamba and Chola periods and features fine early stone carving.
Kolar Gold Fields
KGF, around 30 kilometres from Kolar, was once one of the deepest gold mining operations in the world and gave the district its name as India's Golden Land. The colonial-era bungalows, mine headframes and heaps of mine waste still tell the story. A bangalore to kgf cab can easily be combined with Kotilingeshwara, which is close by.

Departure Point
Your journey to Ooty begins from Bangalore, the gateway to South India's most beloved hill stations. Pick-up is available from any part of the city — Koramangala, Electronic City, Whitefield, Hebbal, Yeshwanthpur, Marathahalli, or Majestic. The most common route out of Bangalore takes you onto NH275, the six-lane Mysore Expressway, which is one of the smoothest and best-maintained national highways in Karnataka. An early departure between 5 AM and 6 AM is strongly advised to clear Bangalore city limits before peak traffic begins. The first 50 km on the expressway are fast, comfortable, and lightly trafficked in the early hours, setting a pleasant tone for the journey ahead. Our drivers are experienced in choosing the optimal departure window and route based on real-time traffic conditions, ensuring that the first stretch of your Bangalore to Ooty road trip is efficient, calm, and enjoyable from the very first kilometre.
Biryani Town on Bangalore's Eastern Edge
The road widens past Budigere Cross and the warehouses near the Hoskote toll. Hoskote is an old town, founded by Thamme Gowda according to a copper plate grant dated 1494, and it has a large tank that fills well after the rains. Today it is best known across Bangalore for its dum biryani, served from very early morning, which makes it a favourite breakfast stop for trekkers on the way back. Elapsed time: about forty-five minutes.
Industrial Gateway of Kolar District
Beyond Hoskote, NH75 runs through open country with eucalyptus plantations, vegetable farms and granite outcrops. The toll plaza on this stretch is the main one on the route. Narasapura is home to a large KIADB industrial area with automobile and electronics plants, making it the industrial gateway to Kolar district. Elapsed time: about one hour ten minutes.
Land of Silk, Milk, Mango and Gold
The final highway stretch passes mango orchards and the silk and dairy villages that earned Kolar its title as the land of silk, milk, mango and gold. Kolar town has one of Asia's largest APMC markets, where tomato and vegetable trucks gather before dawn. Kolaramma and Someshwara temples are close to the centre, and the town has a tomb associated with the father of Hyder Ali. Most drivers leave the highway here and head south through town. Elapsed time: about one hour twenty-five minutes.
Dakshina Kashi, the Kashi of the South
A short town road leads to the parking area at the foot of the hill, where the long stairway to the Kashi Vishweshwara Temple begins. The driver parks the car, stays reachable on phone and waits for your return, whether that is two hours or five. Elapsed time from Bangalore: about one hour thirty to one hour forty-five minutes.

Easy Booking Options
Simple reservations for regional and outstation trips.
The bangalore to antharagange distance is about 72 kilometres via Old Madras Road, Hoskote and Kolar. By bus it takes 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes, depending on traffic at KR Puram.
Outstation rates start from Rs 45 per km for a 29 seater bus, and full-day local packages are also available for shorter outings. We quote whichever option suits your itinerary best. Tolls, parking, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are extra, and the final rental is calculated garage to garage.
Yes. Most groups leave Bangalore at 6:00 AM, spend the morning on the trek and temple, have lunch in Kolar, add one more stop such as Kotilingeshwara or KGF, and are back in the city by early evening.
Buses reach the parking area at the base of the temple. From there, the spring and temple are a walk up stone steps, and the trek continues beyond.
Treks and camping at Antharagange are regulated by the forest department, and the rules can change. Check the current booking and timing requirements before planning a night trek. We can time the bus pickup and return around your trek slot.
October to February is ideal, with cool mornings and clear views. Summer afternoons on the rocks are very hot, so start early. After rain, the boulders can be slippery.
Yes. Kotilingeshwara and Kolar Gold Fields are both about 30 kilometres from Kolar and fit comfortably into the same day for a full-day outing.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms the booking. No interstate permit is needed, as the route stays within Karnataka.
A 29 to 33 seater suits groups of about 30, a 40 seater suits groups of 35 to 40, and a 45 to 50 seater suits larger groups. We do not operate sleeper buses; all our buses are seated.
Passenger insurance is not provided by Tejas Tours and Travels, so groups may arrange their own cover, particularly for treks. To book, call or WhatsApp +91 9980277773 or email info@tejastravels.com with your date, group size, pickup location and preferred bus tier. Our rental bus booking team sends a written quote within 2 hours.
