Gommateshwara Bahubali Statue
The heart of Gommatagiri is the monolithic statue of Bahubali, the son of the first Tirthankara Rishabhanatha, who renounced a kingdom after winning it and meditated standing so long that creepers grew around his limbs. The statue, around 18 to 20 feet tall, shows these vines curling up his legs and arms, a detail that makes it instantly recognisable. It is a smaller but beautifully carved counterpart to the giant statue at Shravanabelagola. The site is managed as a Jain religious centre, so dress modestly and follow the rules at the shrine.

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.

Home of the Thatte Idli
The drive leaves Bangalore via Mysore Road and Kengeri and joins the Bangalore–Mysuru Expressway. Bidadi is the "Home of the Thatte Idli", the large, flat, soft idli served with chutney and butter that has become a favourite across the state. The town is also a growing industrial area with major automobile plants nearby. The expressway bypasses Bidadi, but a short service road detour leads to the popular idli stalls, making it an ideal early breakfast stop.

Silk City of Karnataka
Ramanagara is the "Silk City of Karnataka", home to one of the largest silk cocoon markets in Asia, where farmers bring cocoons for auction every day. Its rugged granite hills became famous as the location of the film Sholay, and the Ramadevara Betta vulture sanctuary lies among them. The expressway gives you good views of the rocky landscape as you pass.

Toy Town of Karnataka
Channapatna is the "Toy Town of Karnataka", known for its lacquered wooden toys and dolls, made from ivory wood and coloured with natural dyes. The craft carries a GI tag, and workshops and showrooms along the old highway sell toys, puzzles and décor. Many travellers stop here on the return journey to pick up gifts for children.

Home of the Maddur Vada
Maddur is the "Home of the Maddur Vada", a crisp fritter made with semolina, rice flour, onion and curry leaves. The dish is said to have been created at the town's railway station and is now enjoyed across Karnataka. Well-known eateries near the highway serve it hot, and it is a favourite snack stop for travellers.

Sugar City of Karnataka
Mandya is the "Sugar City of Karnataka", surrounded by sugarcane fields irrigated by the Kaveri and its canals. Sugar mills and jaggery units dot the district, and the countryside turns lush and green. The expressway skirts the town and keeps the drive quick.

Island Fortress of Tipu Sultan
Srirangapatna is the "Island Fortress of Tipu Sultan", formed by two branches of the Kaveri. It served as the capital of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan, and its temple, palace and fort walls are just off the highway. Many visitors save it for the return drive, when a stop here fits naturally before heading back.

City of Palaces
Mysuru is the "Cultural Capital of Karnataka" and the "City of Palaces", known for its royal heritage, Dasara festival, silk sarees, sandalwood and Mysore Pak. Your driver uses the ring road to bypass the busy centre and join the Hunsur road. If you plan to see the palace or Chamundi Hills, your driver can fit them in before or after Gommatagiri.

Little Shravanabelagola of Mysuru
The final stretch brings you to the foot of Gommatagiri, the "Little Shravanabelagola of Mysuru", where the granite hill rises from the fields and the statue can be seen at the top. Your driver parks near the base while you climb. After the visit, you can head back to Mysuru for the palace and Chamundi Hills, or to KRS for the evening fountain show, before returning to Bangalore.

The hill is only about 50 metres high, and a flight of rock-cut steps leads to the statue. Most people manage it in 10 to 15 minutes at an easy pace. Footwear must be removed, so visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the rock is cool.
The annual anointing ceremony is usually held around September or October, and the exact date varies each year. Confirm it with the local Jain organisers before planning, and book your vehicle early, as groups from across the region travel for the event.
Yes. Many Jain pilgrimage groups visit Gommatagiri and Shravanabelagola together over two days, often with a night in Mysore or Hassan.
