Group boarding
The mini bus boards your group of twenty at 5, near the palace or at the railway station. Mysore bonda with sambar and chutney is the tea time snack here; make it the treat for the evening you return. The route follows NH275 to Srirangapatna, then turns at Pandavapura for KR Pet and Channarayapatna. We stop the night at Hosapete, 385 km away, and reach Gulbarga on day two. Bags go at the back.

Tea
After 85 km the mini bus stops at Channarayapatna for tea. The town stands at about 827 to 845 m on NH75, and the highway hotels have room for a mini bus to pull off the road. Anekere village nearby has a Hoysala period Chennakeshava temple. Fifteen minutes for twenty people. Arsikere, for breakfast, is about 60 km on. The group leader should do a head count here, the first of many on a two day run.

Breakfast and fuel
Breakfast and fuel come at Arsikere, 145 km out. This coconut belt sends its copra to the Tiptur market, which auctions it twice a week. Sri Siddarameshwara gadduge, about 12 km away near Banavara, is a pilgrim place for another day. Thirty minutes covers breakfast for twenty. Chitradurga is 105 km ahead. Keep the halt tight; the day has more than 240 km still to go after breakfast, and the hotel at Hosapete expects the group by evening.

Lunch
Chitradurga, 250 km from Mysore, is the lunch halt. The pillow lava at Maradihalli near the city is a National Geological Monument, and Chandravalli caves, with Iron Age finds, lie about 3 km from the fort; good for a study group with spare time. Lunch is jowar roti and curry. Forty five minutes, then NH50 to Kudligi and Hosapete. A group of twenty can be served together if the driver calls the hotel ahead, which he does from Arsikere.

Tea
Kudligi, 330 km out, is the afternoon tea halt. The town on NH50 stands at about 596 m and is known for tamarind; the Kottala Anjaneya festival around Ugadi is the big local event. A mini bus stops on the highway for fifteen minutes. Hosapete, tonight's halt, is 55 km on. If the group wants to reach Hosapete early, this halt can be cut to ten minutes, as the town is under an hour away.

Night halt
Hosapete, 385 km from Mysore, is the night halt for the group. The town has a large market, the place to stock up before the smaller towns of day two, and hotels that suit groups. Ballari is about 60 km away. We book one hotel for all twenty with space for the mini bus. Tomorrow is 285 km to Gulbarga. Dinner is in the hotel or a short walk away, so the mini bus can stay parked for the night.

Tea and diesel
Kushtagi, 465 km from Mysore, is the first halt on day two. The mini bus pulls up beside the highway, not in the town lanes. Pomegranate grows across the taluk, and you may see fruit stalls. At Kushtagi the Badami road leaves NH50 via Gajendragad, and our road turns for Lingasugur. Fifteen minutes, with diesel if needed. Keep the stop short, because lunch at Lingasugur is about an hour and a half ahead.

Lunch
Lingasugur, 525 km out, is the day two lunch halt, a busy taluk town on the main road north. The mini bus parks on the service lane so the group walks only a few steps to a highway hotel serving rotti, ennegai and rice. Fuel and restrooms here. Forty minutes, then the last 145 km to Gulbarga. Count heads before leaving; a group that scatters for fruit and tea can lose ten minutes here.

Restroom halt
Jewargi, 625 km from Mysore, is the last town before Gulbarga, 45 km on. The road crosses the Bhima river near here. A quick restroom halt is enough for a mini bus group; often we only slow down and keep the time for the city. Ask the group to pack up their snacks and be ready for the hotel. The group leader can share the room list now, so check in at the hotel is quick.

Arrival
The mini bus reaches Gulbarga, also known as Kalaburagi, after about fifteen hours of driving over two days. Hotels near the railway station suit groups, and the driver drops everyone at the door. Jowar roti is the staple food here. Summers are extremely hot, so the best months are November to February. Modest dress is expected at the city's shrines. Hand the driver the next day's plan before the group goes up to the rooms.

Gulbarga is about 670 km away; tolls, parking, permits and GST go on top at actual.
A little, near Kudligi. The Kottala Anjaneya festival around Ugadi is the big local event of that taluk, so the town can be crowded then. The mini bus stays on NH50 and rarely loses much time. The bigger seasonal factor is heat; November to February is the most comfortable time for this trip.
Yes, with the night at Hosapete each day stays manageable, and we halt every two hours. Seat elders in the front rows, where the ride is smoother, and keep their medicines in a hand bag. At halts the mini bus parks close to the hotel door, so the walk is short.
