Sri Sita Ramachandra Swamy Temple
The heart of Bhadrachalam, this hilltop temple overlooking the Godavari was built by Kancherla Gopanna, remembered as Bhakta Ramadasu, a 17th century revenue officer under the Qutb Shahi rulers of Golconda. Legend holds that he used state revenue to build the temple, was imprisoned for it, and was freed when Rama and Lakshmana themselves paid the dues. The deity is worshipped as Vaikunta Rama, with Sita seated beside him and Lakshmana standing nearby. The Sri Rama Navami Kalyanam, the celestial wedding of Rama and Sita, draws lakhs of devotees each year, while Vaikunta Ekadasi is marked by the Teppotsavam, a float festival on the river. Ramadasu's keertanas are still sung here, and his memory is honoured within the temple precincts.

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.
Land of Sir M. Visvesvaraya
The drive leaves the city through Hebbal and past the Kempegowda International Airport turnoff, joining NH44 towards Hyderabad. Chikkaballapur is known as the "Land of Sir M. Visvesvaraya", as the great engineer and statesman was born at nearby Muddenahalli, where his memorial stands. The district is also home to Nandi Hills, famous for its sunrise views, and to vineyards that supply Bangalore's grape markets. Leaving before 5:00 AM means the airport road stretch is clear and the group reaches the Andhra Pradesh border quickly.

Second Capital of the Vijayanagara Empire
After crossing into Andhra Pradesh near Bagepalli, the highway reaches Penukonda, the "Second Capital of the Vijayanagara Empire", which served as a stronghold of the Vijayanagara kings after the fall of Hampi. The hill fort, the Gagan Mahal palace and several old temples remain. Today the area is also known for the large Kia automobile plant nearby. It is a good first tea stop of the day.

Groundnut Bowl of Andhra Pradesh
Anantapur is the "Groundnut Bowl of Andhra Pradesh", one of the largest groundnut-growing districts in the country, and the dry, rocky landscape is dotted with farms and windmills. Puttaparthi and Lepakshi are both reachable from this stretch for travellers who want to extend the trip. Anantapur's highway restaurants make it a popular breakfast halt.
Fort Town of Rayalaseema
Gooty is the "Fort Town of Rayalaseema", dominated by a massive hill fort that was held by the Vijayanagara rulers, Hyder Ali and the Marathas at different times. The fort climb is long, but even the view from the highway is impressive. The town is also a railway junction, and the highway here is straight and fast.

Gateway of Rayalaseema
Kurnool is the "Gateway of Rayalaseema" and was the first capital of Andhra State from 1953 to 1956. The Konda Reddy Buruju, an old fort tower, stands in the city centre, and the Tungabhadra river flows alongside. Kurnool is the natural lunch halt, and just after the city the highway crosses the Tungabhadra bridge into Telangana, where the interstate permit is checked.

City of Pearls
Rather than entering the "City of Pearls", your driver takes the Outer Ring Road from Shamshabad around to the Vijayawada highway, saving time and avoiding city traffic. The area around the ring road has a wide choice of hotels, which makes it the ideal overnight halt. Travellers with extra time can visit Charminar, Golconda Fort, where Bhakta Ramadasu was imprisoned, or Yadagirigutta, the Lakshmi Narasimha temple about 60 kilometres north-east.

Land of Stambhadri
Khammam is the "Land of Stambhadri", taking its name from the hill of the Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple around which the town grew. Khammam Fort crowns a hill above the town, and Nelakondapalli, Bhakta Ramadasu's birthplace, is a short detour. The region is known for granite quarries and chilli farming. It is the last large town before the forested stretch towards Bhadrachalam.

Dakshina Ayodhya
The final stretch follows the Godavari valley into Bhadrachalam, "Dakshina Ayodhya", where the temple gopuram rises above the town and the river. Your driver takes you straight to your hotel or to the temple, depending on darshan timings. A typical plan is temple darshan and the Godavari ghat on the first day, Parnasala, Jatayu Paka and Dummugudem on the second, and Kinnerasani or Papikondalu on the third.










For Bangalore companies organising employee pilgrimage trips, CSR visits or offsites in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Includes GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, the same named driver throughout, and daily duty slips reconciled against the final bill. Our corporate travels bangalore desk manages multi-vehicle movements for larger groups.
The most popular way to book this route: a five to six day trip covering the temple, Godavari snanam, Parnasala, Jatayu Paka and Dummugudem, with an overnight halt at Hyderabad both ways. The driver plans halts around the needs of elders and darshan timings. This is our standard tempo traveller for pilgrimage bangalore itinerary.
For community associations and cost-conscious families. A standard 12 or 13 seater AC tempo traveller on the direct route, with minimal detours. The tempo traveller rate per km bangalore on this tier is our lowest, and on a 1,700 kilometre round trip the saving per head across a full vehicle is considerable.
For senior family members and groups who want real comfort over two long driving days. Our luxury tempo traveller bangalore variants have 2 by 1 captain seats, extra legroom and premium interiors. The force urbania hire option in 13 to 17 seater configuration is also available for a smoother ride on this long route.
For groups with more time, Bhadrachalam combines well with Srisailam, Yadadri near Hyderabad, and Kanaka Durga at Vijayawada, with the return via the coastal route. The same vehicle and driver stay with you throughout, and the whole circuit is quoted in one number. Larger institutional groups can also book through our school transportation services team for educational tours.

The bangalore to bhadrachalam distance is about 870 kilometres by road via Anantapur, Kurnool, Hyderabad, Suryapet and Khammam. Driving time is 14 to 16 hours, so we strongly recommend splitting the journey over two days with an overnight halt at Hyderabad.
Rates start from Rs 22 per kilometre for a 12 or 13 seater AC tempo traveller and rise with seating capacity and luxury configuration. The quoted fare includes base fare, fuel and driver allowance. Toll, parking, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana interstate tax, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are extra, and the final rental is based on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage. You receive an itemised written quote within 2 hours.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms your booking. It must be paid digitally by UPI, bank transfer or card, and the balance is settled at trip end.
The route passes through Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, so permits for both states are required. We arrange them before departure, and the interstate tax is billed at actuals rather than built into the per-kilometre rate.
We do not recommend it. Tejas Tours and Travels does not operate sleeper buses; all our vehicles are seated configurations with push-back seats. A daytime journey with an overnight hotel halt at Hyderabad is safer and far more comfortable, especially for elderly pilgrims.
Plan five to six days in total: two days of travel each way and one to two days at Bhadrachalam for darshan, the Godavari snanam, Parnasala and the surrounding sites. Adding Srisailam or Vijayawada extends the trip by one or two days.
October to February offers the most comfortable weather. Sri Rama Navami, usually in March or April, and Vaikunta Ekadasi in December or January are the most auspicious times but bring very large crowds. April to June is extremely hot across the whole route, so plan early morning darshan and travel.
No. Tejas Tours and Travels does not provide passenger insurance cover. Passengers who want cover should arrange personal travel insurance. All vehicles carry valid vehicle insurance and statutory compliance, and every driver is police-verified.
Yes. The same vehicle and driver stay with you for the full trip, including local sightseeing at Parnasala, Jatayu Paka, Dummugudem and Kinnerasani. Share your day-wise itinerary and our tempo traveller hire bangalore team will quote the full trip, including the driver's night halts, as one written number.
Cancelling more than 72 hours before departure is free, with a full advance refund in 5 to 7 working days. Charges rise to 10 percent between 48 and 72 hours, 25 percent between 24 and 48 hours, 50 percent between 12 and 24 hours and 75 percent inside 12 hours. Date changes with more than 24 hours notice carry no penalty, subject to availability.
