Pickup at your door
We can pick the family up from two or three addresses in Mysuru, and the bags go in at the back first. Bring a box of Mysore pak for the road, the ghee sweet that every shop in the city sells. The traveller heads out on the Hunsur road and, at Bilikere, about 25 km out, turns onto SH57 for KR Nagar and Holenarasipura. That road carries much less traffic than the main highway. Baba Budangiri is about 220 km away, so a six o'clock start is right.
Tea stop
Holenarasipura, on the Hemavathi, is about 85 km out and a good fifteen minute tea halt for the family. Paddy, ragi, coconut and sugarcane grow around the town. A Jain shrine, the Neminatha Basadi, is dated to 915 AD and linked to Chavundaraya, if anyone is curious about old temples. The town is also the home of a former Prime Minister, H D Deve Gowda. Hassan and breakfast are about 30 to 35 km on.
Breakfast
Breakfast for the family is at Hassan, around 120 km out, in about half an hour. Kadubu with coconut chutney reaches a table of fifteen quickly, and the coffee is strong Malnad filter. If the trip falls in October or November, the Hasanamba temple may be in its short annual opening around Deepavali, which fills the city, so the driver keeps to the bypass. From Hassan the traveller turns away from NH75 for Belur, about 45 minutes north west.
Temple halt
The family's long halt of the morning is Belur. On the Yagachi river at about 979 m, it is the highest town of Hassan district, and its Chennakeshava temple joined the UNESCO list in 2023 together with Halebidu and Somanathapura. Give it 50 minutes; children enjoy spotting the dancers carved on the bracket figures. Footwear is left at a stand by the gate, and nobody charges for entry. The traveller waits in the parking. From here to Chikmagalur is a short 25 km through greener country.
Lunch and fuel
Chikmagalur is the family's lunch stop and the base town for the hills. A hotel can seat fifteen together, and 45 minutes covers rice with akki rotti and kadubu. Fill fuel and draw cash here, since the hill road has neither pumps nor ATMs. Winter days in town are about 11 to 20 C and the ridge above is colder, so sweaters come out of the bags now. The hill road from town is about 35 km, narrow and winding.
Hill parking
About four and a half hours after leaving Mysore, the tempo traveller reaches the parking below the shrine. On busy days the staff decide where vehicles stand, and our driver follows them. Elders can sit by the tea and corn stalls while the younger ones walk up. One rule surprises visitors; a Supreme Court ruling allows only those ceremonies that were held before 1975, so ask the staff before planning any pooja. For lunch and beds, the family goes back down to Chikmagalur.

Mysore to Shirdi
I had an excellent experience with Tejas Travel. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The driver was polite, punctual, and knew the routes perfectly, which made our trip smooth and enjoyable. Their service was professional from start to finish, and the pricing was also very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable travel vehicle services. 👍

It is about 220 km one way and about 440 km there and back. The tempo traveller runs on SH57 through Holenarasipura to Hassan, then Belur and Chikmagalur, where the hill road starts. Plan on about 4.5 hours with breakfast and a temple halt.
No. Baba Budangiri is in Karnataka, so no state permit is needed. Tolls, parking and GST are extra at actual cost.
A late night return adds the driver night allowance. The quote lists it. Rate card figure: ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Tell us the date and where to pick up; the quote comes in writing.
Baba Budangiri: the 16 seater, as big suitcases need the spare seats. This trip comes to ₹20,400 for 600 km at ₹32/km, plus ₹1,200 driver bata. See tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
Manikyadhara Falls is a short drive on, and Mullayanagiri is on the same hills. Our tempo traveller can do all three in one morning.
The road from Chikmagalur is narrow and winding, and in the wet months, July, August and October, it is slippery and often in mist. The tempo traveller goes slowly with headlights on. We plan the climb for the morning and come down by mid afternoon, before the fog thickens.
Warm clothes for everyone, as the hilltop is colder than the town. Shoes with grip for the walk from the parking, water and snacks, since the stalls sell only tea and corn. Keep medicines and a change of socks in a small bag. Big bags can stay in the traveller or at your Chikmagalur hotel.
