Pickup
The van picks up the family at 6:00 am from one or two points in Mysuru, say a home in JP Nagar and a hotel near the palace. Visitors who have not yet climbed Chamundi Hill can keep it for the next morning: the hill is about 13 km from the city, and over 1,000 steps lead to the temple on top. Bags and water go in the back. The van heads west on the Hunsur road and takes SH57 north at Bilikere.

Breakfast
Breakfast is in KR Nagar, around 40 km out, at an eatery with room for fifteen. Vegetarian places start serving near seven and the bus station canteen even earlier, so nobody waits long. Families with a little time on the way home can drive about 4 km to Ramanahalli, a village looking over the KRS backwaters. Allow thirty minutes for the meal. SH57 continues north; Holenarasipura is roughly 40 km on, and Hassan about 75 km.

Drive through
Holenarasipura, close to 80 km from Mysore, is a drive through for the van. On the bank of the Hemavathi, a few metres from the water, the Mavinakere Lakshmi Venkataramanaswamy temple welcomes anyone wanting a short darshan on the return journey. Through the town the road stays calm, since SH57 carries far less traffic than the Hunsur highway. The fields here grow paddy and coconut. Hassan comes up about 35 km later, under an hour away.

Tea halt
Hassan, near the 115 km mark, gives the family fifteen minutes for tea and the washroom. Pilgrims may already know Shravanabelagola and its tall Bahubali statue, roughly 51 km south east of the city, but that needs a day of its own. Diesel goes in here, because the temple towns ahead are small. From Hassan the van turns onto SH21; Halebidu is about 30 km off, and Belur another 16 km further on.

Temple stop
Halebidu, sometimes spelt Halebeedu, is about 145 km from Mysore. The van parks by the temple park, and the group keeps an hour here. Since 2023 Halebidu and Belur are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hoysala temples. Two large Nandi statues sit in their own pavilions at the main temple. The Dorasamudra lake, which the early Hoysala kings dug and enlarged, lies beside the old capital. Belur is about 16 km on.

Belur arrival
The tempo traveller reaches Belur after about three hours of driving with halts. The van parks near the temple, and footwear is left at the stand outside. Belur has more than one temple: the Shankareshvara is about 400 m from the main gopura and the Pathaleshwara about 600 m east, quiet stops away from the crowd. Small hotels near the temple serve akki rotti and simple meals. Chikmagalur is about 25 km on.

Plan on about 160 km between Mysore and Belur, some 320 km overall. Our van climbs SH57 through KR Nagar and Holenarasipura, stops briefly at Hassan, visits Halebidu and then reaches Belur. With breakfast and a tea halt, the driving totals roughly three hours.
Yes, that works. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
The 16 seater; two seats stay free for bags. All sizes are on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
Late night driving adds a night allowance for the driver. You see it in the quote first. The tempo traveller night bata is ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
Modest clothes. Shoes are left outside the temple.
No, they are separate. GST, tolls, parking and any permit are charged at actual.
October to March, when the weather is dry and the stone courtyards stay cool in the morning. March brings the Hoysala Mahotsava at both towns, with bigger crowds. From June to September rain is heavy in the district; the temples are open but the walk between them is wet. Start early to have the courtyards cool and calm.
Mostly yes. The courtyards are flat but wide, and shoes stay outside, so the stone can be hot by noon; visit early and carry socks. Elders can sit on the steps in the shade while others walk. The van parks close to both temples, so nobody walks far.
