Group pickup
The tempo traveller starts at 7 am from one meeting point you choose in Mysuru, which may be a home, a lodge near the station or Mandakalli airport. With 9 to 20 seats it suits a family group or a temple party. Our driver speaks Kannada, the main language here, which helps at the forest counter if your group comes from the north, since Hindi is not widely understood outside tourist spots. The van follows the Nanjangud road south; breakfast is 25 km away.
Breakfast halt
At Nanjangud, 25 km south of Mysore, the group stops for breakfast on the Kapila riverbank town. Inside the Srikanteshwara temple complex stands a stone Nandi about 8 ft high, installed in 1644, and the inner sanctum dates from about the 11th century. For a van group, twenty five minutes covers idli and a look inside if the queue is short. The temple is open from around 6 am. Remind everyone that the hill temple ahead allows only pooja items, so buy flowers or coconut here.
Fuel and water
Gundlupet, at 60 km, is where the van fills fuel and the group buys water. Food choices here are only small wayside eateries, which is why breakfast happens at Nanjangud. Around the town, farms grow flowers and grapes on the dry land, and the drive gets greener after Hangala. The forest highway through Bandipur closes at 9 pm, but this trip turns off before the reserve, so the closure matters only if you add a safari. Ten minutes is enough; the foothill is 20 km ahead.
Hill road
Hangala, 70 km out, is where the tempo traveller turns off the highway towards the hill. The side road is narrow in places, though a tempo traveller manages it to the foothill parking without trouble. It runs for about 10 km. If the group wants the restroom, ask at Hangala, since the foothill has only basic facilities. This is also the moment to sort bags. Pooja items go in a cloth bag, and everything else, food included, stays in the van while you are on the hill.
Forest bus point
About an hour and a half after Mysore, the van stops at the forest check post at the foot of Gopalaswamy Betta. Visiting hours run from about 8:30 am to 4 pm, with the first forest bus at 8:30 and the last at 4. A group of twelve or more may go up in two batches, so keep the head count ready. Time on top is about an hour and a half. The van waits in the parking, and the bags stay locked inside until you come back down.
Looking for a Mysore to Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta tempo traveller for a family visit to the misty hill temple? The van picks twelve of you up at home or at Mysuru Junction and has you at the foothill parking by mid morning. Get a tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.

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. 👍

From Mysore to the foothill of Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta is about 80 km, so about 160 km there and back. The tempo traveller takes NH 766 via Nanjangud and Gundlupet, then turns off at Hangala for the hill road. It takes about an hour and a half with a breakfast halt. Private vehicles stop at the foothill, and the forest bus does the last climb.
The 12 seater. See tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
Yes, the reception is around 20 km from Gundlupet.
Yes. Ask for a one way quote with your date, and we send it in writing.
They are extra. You pay tolls, parking, permits and GST at actual, with receipts.
Not on a day trip.
Sometimes. The festival lands in September or October, and in recent years police orders on Vijayadashami barred vehicles coming into the city from the Nanjangud side, among other roads. Leaving is easier than arriving, yet we still pick an earlier hour on festival days and read the police notice the evening before. On ordinary days this exit is quick.
In the tempo traveller. The driver parks at the foothill check post and stays with the vehicle, so suitcases, food and spare clothes remain locked inside. Only pooja items go up, in cloth or paper bags. Carry phones, wallets and any medicines in a small bag of your own. The return bus brings you down to the same parking, and the van leaves from there.
