Group pickup
Gather the group at one place with room for the mini bus to stand, such as a college gate or a temple car park. Hand out a box of Mysore pak for the road, the gram flour and ghee sweet the city is known for. The mini bus then takes the ring road to the Bannur road. Galibore is about 130 km, close to three hours for a mini bus. Book the camp for the whole group with Jungle Lodges well ahead.
Drive on
At Bannur, about 30 km out, the mini bus carries on without a halt. The town's centre is narrow, so the driver slows near the bus stand and the market. On the right, the road to Somanathapura branches off. Twenty people getting down this early would cost time that is better spent at the camp. Malavalli, about 25 km ahead, is the breakfast stop. Keep bags out of the aisle.
Breakfast for twenty
The mini bus halts at Malavalli, about 55 km from Mysore, for breakfast. Thirty minutes is right for twenty people, and calling the order from the road saves time. Malavalli is a taluk town of Mandya district; Gaganachukki falls are about 18 km away in the same taluk. This is the last proper market before the camp, so buy water cans and snacks here. The road to Halagur leaves from town.
Halagur
Halagur is about 70 km from Mysore and about 21 km from Malavalli. The mini bus passes through on NH 948 towards Sathanur. The Bheemeshwari camp lies about 15 km away on a side road, which some groups combine with Galibore on a two day trip. No stop here. The highway is good, but the driver keeps the speed moderate, since the mini bus is fully loaded with bags. Seat belts on for the stretch ahead.
Tea halt
Sathanur, about 95 km from Mysore, is the tea and restroom halt before the forest. Fifteen minutes is enough for twenty. A left turn here runs about 18 km to Muthathi and the Bheemeshwari camp, while the mini bus takes the road to Sangama, about 25 km on. River spots in this area see drownings often, and the police warn visitors to stay out of the water. Phone signal is weak from here on.
Drive on
The mini bus passes Sangama, about 120 km from Mysore, where the Arkavathi joins the Kaveri. Chunchi falls lies a few km back on this same approach road. The river is fast and the rocks slippery; five young men drowned here in April 2024, so the group should not go in. This is sanctuary land, and the road ahead to the camp is narrow, so the mini bus moves slowly for the last 10 km.
Group drop
The mini bus reaches the camp about three hours after leaving Mysore. Galibore is a Jungle Lodges camp with about 10 tented cottages inside the Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary, so a group of twenty may fill most of it. Entry is through the forest and needs a booking. The staff explain meal times and the activity plan. The mini bus parks where the camp allows, and the group walks in. Carry torches if you are staying the night.

By road the camp is near 130 km from Mysore, or around 260 km when the group comes back. The mini bus heads east through Bannur and Malavalli, then on the Kanakapura highway past Halagur and Sathanur to Sangama and the forest road. A mini bus takes close to three hours each way with halts.
Yes. Driving after 10 pm adds the driver's night allowance, shown on the quote before booking. The mini bus night bata is ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
Not included. Tolls, parking and any state permit are billed as paid, plus GST.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Ask for a one way quote with your date, and we send it in writing.
The 25 seater: all get a seat and the bags go in. Sizes are on mini bus on rent in Mysore.
Leave by 6:30 am. One pickup point saves half an hour. With the halts on this page you reach Galibore in about 3 hours.
The highway through Malavalli, Halagur and Sathanur is fine in the rain. The last part through the sanctuary is narrow and slower when wet, so the mini bus takes it carefully. In the monsoon the Kaveri rises quickly after heavy rain upstream, and the forest department has shut the Sangama area at times, so we check with the camp first.
We suggest leaving the camp by mid afternoon. The forest road to Sangama has no lights and elephants live in this sanctuary, so it is better driven in daylight. Once on the highway at Sathanur, night driving to Mysore is fine. If the group stays the night instead, the tented cottages need an advance booking.
