Malpe Beach and Sea Walk
Malpe beach is a wide stretch of clean sand backed by casuarina trees, busy with families in the evenings and quiet in the mornings. At its northern end, the Sea Walk is a stone breakwater with a paved walkway running out into the sea, the best spot on the coast to watch the sunset. The beach was among the first in India to offer free public Wi-Fi. For malpe beach water sports such as parasailing, jet skiing and banana boat rides, visit between October and May; activities stop during the monsoon when the sea turns rough.

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 the historic Kunigal Stud Farm
The drive starts on the Tumkur Road and turns onto NH75 at Nelamangala, a smooth four-lane highway. Kunigal is best known for its stud farm, whose history goes back to the Mysore kingdom and Tipu Sultan's cavalry, and which bred many famous Indian racehorses. The large Kunigal lake sits beside the highway, and the Siddalingeshwara temple at Yediyur is a short detour. Traffic is light this early, so the car covers this leg in about an hour and a half.
Gateway to Shravanabelagola
The highway crosses flat farmland dotted with coconut groves and granite outcrops. Channarayapatna is the turnoff for Shravanabelagola, 12 kilometres away, where the 57-foot monolithic statue of Gommateshwara, or Bahubali, has stood on Vindhyagiri hill for over a thousand years. It is one of the most important Jain pilgrimage sites in the world. Most travellers take their breakfast halt here, around 8:00 AM, at the busy highway restaurants.
Gateway to Hoysala architecture
Hassan is the district headquarters and the base for Belur and Halebidu, whose 12th century Hoysala temples are famous for their intricate soapstone carving and are now part of a UNESCO World Heritage listing. Belur is about 40 kilometres away, so it suits the return leg or a dedicated stop. The highway bypasses the town, and the land starts to rise gently toward the Western Ghats.
Coffee and cardamom hills of the Western Ghats
The air cools, and coffee and pepper estates line the hills on both sides. Sakleshpur sits on the Hemavathi river and is a popular weekend retreat from Bangalore. Just off the highway stands Manjarabad Fort, a star-shaped fort built by Tipu Sultan, with views across the Ghats from its ramparts. This is the last proper town before the descent, so your driver will usually suggest a short tea break.
dramatic descent from the Deccan plateau to the coast
Past Donigal, the road drops through dense evergreen forest in a series of hairpin bends, with waterfalls running down the rock faces in the monsoon. This is the slowest stretch of the drive and the one where an experienced driver matters most. At the foot of the ghat, Gundya is the turnoff for Kukke Subramanya, one of Karnataka's best-known serpent-god temples, around 20 kilometres away.
Gateway of Karnataka".
The road follows the Nethravathi past Bantwal to Mangaluru, Karnataka's main port city and a busy centre of trade, education and banking. It is known for its churches, the Kadri Manjunatha temple, the Mangaladevi temple that gave the city its name, and seafood that draws food lovers from across the country. This is the natural lunch halt, usually around 1:00 PM; ask your driver for a fish thali or the famous Mangalore buns.
1901 lighthouse on the rocks
The road runs close to the coast through Padubidri, whose beach has earned Blue Flag certification for cleanliness and safety. Kaup follows, with its white lighthouse on a rocky headland and a long beach below. If you are running ahead of schedule, a thirty-minute stop here is worth it before the final stretch to Udupi.
Temple Town and the home of Udupi cuisine;
Malpe — Karnataka's largest fishing harbour. Udupi is known across India for its Krishna Matha and for giving its name to the vegetarian restaurants found in every Indian city. From the town centre, a six-kilometre road runs west through coconut groves to Malpe, a natural port mentioned by the Greek geographer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. Your driver drops you at your hotel or homestay, usually by around 3:00 PM, in time for sunset at the Sea Walk.
For Bangalore teams travelling to Manipal's universities and hospitals, the Mangaluru and Udupi business belt, or beachside offsites. Includes GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, a named driver for the whole trip, daily duty slips and consolidated billing for registered accounts. Our corporate travels bangalore desk manages everything, and senior executives can choose from our luxury car rental bangalore range.
The most popular booking on this route: two or three days covering Malpe Beach, St. Mary's Island, the Krishna Matha and Manipal, often with a day trip to Kollur. The car and driver stay with you throughout, and halts are planned around children and elderly travellers. For six or seven people, an Innova Crysta or an innova hycross rent bangalore booking gives everyone space and room for luggage.
For couples, students and small groups who want reliable transport at the lowest cost per kilometre. Clean, air-conditioned Etios and Dzire sedans with verified drivers, on a point-to-point or short-stay plan. The budget tier is about vehicle class, never about maintenance standards or driver checks.
For milestone trips and travellers who want comfort through the ghat and along the coast. Choose from the Toyota Camry, Corolla Altis, Fortuner, Audi A6, Audi Q7, BMW 5 Series, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Rolls-Royce Ghost, with formally dressed chauffeurs on request.
Built for pilgrims and families, this four to six day circuit links Udupi and Malpe with Kollur Mookambika, Murudeshwar and Gokarna to the north, or Dharmasthala and Kukke Subramanya on the way back over the ghat. Travellers searching for a udupi tour package from bangalore or a coastal karnataka tour package from bangalore usually choose this format, with the route planned around temple darshan timings.

Professional Travel Solutions
Streamlined travel services tailored for your next adventure.
Extensive Vehicle Network
Large fleet of cars and buses for all your needs.
Transparent Pricing
Clear costs and availability with no hidden fees.
Easy Booking Options
Simple reservations for regional and outstation trips.
The bangalore to malpe distance is approximately 410 kilometres by road via Kunigal, Hassan, Sakleshpur, the Shiradi Ghat, Mangaluru and Udupi. The drive takes 8 to 9 hours including meal halts. Leaving Bangalore between 5:30 AM and 6:30 AM means you cross the ghat in daylight and reach Malpe by mid-afternoon.
Fares start from around Rs 15 per kilometre for a sedan such as an Etios or Dzire, with higher rates for the Innova Crysta, Hycross, Fortuner and luxury cars. The quoted fare includes base fare, fuel charges and driver allowance. Toll and parking, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are billed separately. The final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage, and everything is itemised in the written quote you receive within 2 hours.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms your booking. It can be paid by UPI, bank transfer or card, and a receipt is sent within 30 minutes. The balance is settled at the end of the trip after deducting the advance.
October to May is the best period. Ferries to St. Mary's Island and beach water sports run in this season, and the sea is calm. From June to September the monsoon makes the sea rough, island ferries stop and water sports are suspended, though the drive over the Western Ghats is at its greenest. December to February brings the most pleasant weather and the biggest crowds.
No. The entire route from Bangalore to Malpe lies within Karnataka, so no interstate tax or permit is involved. You pay only the tolls on NH75 and NH66 and any parking charges at the beach and temples.
The Shiradi Ghat is occasionally closed or restricted for road repairs and after heavy monsoon rain. Our drivers check the status before departure and switch to the Charmadi Ghat via Chikkamagaluru or the Agumbe Ghat via Shivamogga if needed. The distance changes only slightly, and any difference in kilometres is billed at the pre-agreed per kilometre rate.
For two to four people, a Dzire or Etios is comfortable and economical. For five to seven people with luggage, an innova crysta bangalore to udupi booking or an Innova Hycross is the most popular choice, and both handle the ghat descent comfortably. Groups of eight or more are better off in a tempo traveller or Force Urbania.
A small advance of around 20 percent of the total fare is typically collected at the time of booking to secure the vehicle and driver allocation, with the remaining balance payable at
the end of the trip either in cash directly to the driver or online via a payment link.
Tejas Travels maintains a fair, transparent, and tiered cancellation policy. All terms communicated in writing at booking confirmation.
