Pickup in Mysuru
The Urbania collects you from your home, a hotel or Mysore airport at Mandakalli at 6. Trains from Mysore Junction run to Hassan and Arsikere by Krishnarajasagara, but by road we go the KR Pet way: expressway to Srirangapatna, the Pandavapura turn, then north. Today's target is Haveri, 375 km away, for the night. Big bags go at the back; keep shawls handy, as the AC and the early hour make the first leg cool for elders.
Tea and a stretch
After 85 km the Urbania eases into Channarayapatna, a highway town of Hassan district, and the group takes a fifteen minute tea and stretch. The road here climbs to a little above 827 m, so the air is still cool. Locals boast that the Bagur Navile tunnel in this taluk is the longest water tunnel in the country, though it lies off the road. Seniors can stay inside with the AC running. Breakfast follows at Arsikere, 55 km on.
Breakfast
Arsikere, 140 km from Mysore, is the breakfast halt. NH73 from Tumakuru and NH69 to Shivamogga both serve the town. For groups with a spare morning, Nagapuri fort on Hirekal hill is about 11 km north, but today we keep moving after twenty five minutes. Seniors can sit while the food comes, and the driver tops up fuel. The open dry country to Chitradurga, 105 km on, is where the AC helps most.
Lunch
Chitradurga, 245 km out, is the lunch halt, a city the British wrote as Chitaldrug. Wind farms crown the hills on the way in. At this city NH50 branches off to Hosapete and Hampi, while the Urbania stays on NH48 north towards Davangere. Jowar roti meals are the regional food. Keep about 45 minutes; elders can rest after eating. The fort is a long rocky walk, better seen on a separate day. Haveri is 130 km on.
Night halt
Haveri, 375 km from Mysore, is the night stop, and the group rests in a hotel close to the highway. The Hukkeri Math is the town's best known religious house, and Bada, birthplace of the poet saint Kanakadasa, is about 25 km away for those who want an early morning visit. The town is at about 572 m and evenings are mild. After breakfast the Urbania turns off for Tadas, Kalghatgi and Haliyal.
Restroom halt
Haliyal is the last town before Dandeli, 480 km from Mysore and 20 km short of it. We stop fifteen minutes for the restroom and fruit, so elders arrive fresh. The town is a taluk headquarters, and SH93 goes from here to Yellapur. The Urbania's high roof and easy step make these short halts quick for everyone. From here the road runs into forest, and Dandeli is about half an hour on.
Arrival in Dandeli
About 10.5 to 11 hours of driving over two days bring the Urbania to Dandeli, where we drop you at your hotel or homestay. The town sits on the Kali river and has the shops and pumps of an old mill town. Check in, rest after lunch and keep the evening easy. Hubli is 74 km away, the nearest big city if anyone needs a train. Share the next day's plan with the driver tonight.

Mysore to Pondicherry
We recently completed our Pondicherry trip with Tejas Tours and Travel Company, and overall we had a very good experience. Shashikala coordinated with us from enquiry to booking and throughout the trip. She was well-communicated, supportive, and checked in with us daily to ensure everything was fine.

The road distance is about 500 km each way, about 1,000 km for the round trip. The Urbania goes by Channarayapatna, Arsikere and Chitradurga, then NH48 to Haveri and the forest road via Haliyal. It is about 10.5 to 11 hours of driving, done in two easy days with a night at Haveri.
Yes, with two easy driving days and a quiet resort.
Only if the van drives through the night. Per night it is ₹700.
Sure. Give us the date and head count, and the one way fare comes back in writing.
The 10 seater. See Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
Tolls, parking and GST, paid as they come.
It can be. Mysore winter mornings are cool, and the city has dropped to about 7.7 C in January. With the AC on, elders should keep a shawl or light jacket for the first two hours. By midday on the Chitradurga stretch it warms up. October to March is still the most pleasant season for this road.
Yes, with the night at Haveri the children never sit more than a few hours at a time. Halts at Channarayapatna, Arsikere, Chitradurga and Haliyal break each day. Bring snacks, water, a change of clothes and something to do. The Urbania's seats have room to nap.
