Pickup at one point
Twenty pilgrims board the mini bus at one agreed spot, a hotel lobby, the junction station or the city bus stand, so nobody is left waiting on a street corner. A box of Mysore pak travels well as an offering or a gift for hosts. Leaving town, the driver takes the Hunsur road only up to Bilikere and then turns north on the Hassan highway. Horanadu is about 260 km away, close to six hours for a mini bus with meals, so board by half past five.
Breakfast
Breakfast for twenty is at KR Nagar, about an hour out, and half an hour is enough when one person collects the orders. The town lies among paddy fields with the Kaveri close by. About 4 km out on the Hassan road, the Yedatore picnic spot has benches on the river bank, a pleasant place for the children on the drive home. After breakfast the mini bus moves on towards Holenarasipura, around 45 km ahead, on an almost empty road.
Tea and fuel
Twenty minutes in Hassan, about 115 km out, while diesel goes in and the group finds tea. October and July are the city's wettest months, so plan this halt under cover then. Gorur dam on the Hemavathi, 58 m high, is about 22 km away, and the Shettihalli church ruin stands in its backwaters; both make a fine half day on another trip. From Hassan the mini bus turns off NH75 and heads north west for Belur.
Temple halt
At Belur the mini bus parks close to the temple, and the group goes in as one party for 65 minutes. The pillared hall inside the Chennakeshava temple has 48 pillars turned on a lathe, and the carved bracket figures under the eaves draw the cameras. Leave footwear with the attendant. Those who want a quieter corner can walk about 400 m to the Shankareshvara temple near the main gopura. One person counts heads at the gate before Mudigere, about 35 km on.
Lunch
Lunch for twenty is booked at a Mudigere hotel that cooks Malnad food, akki rotti and kadubu, and the meal takes about an hour with the restroom queue. The driver fills diesel here, because pumps are few on the next stretch. About 16 km on, at Kottigehara, the Kalasa road leaves the highway, roughly 41 km of narrow bends through estates. Seat those who feel the bends near the front before boarding.
Drive through
The mini bus passes through Kalasa, about 250 km from Mysore, with only around 9 km left to the temple. The road from here follows the Bhadra under thick forest. This area received over 4,000 mm of rain in 2024, so from June to September umbrellas stay within reach. Kottigehara is now about 41 km behind. Use these last minutes to hand out temple clothes and fix the plan for darshan and lunch.
Temple drop
After about six hours the mini bus stops near the temple steps. The Annapoorneshwari temple serves breakfast, lunch and dinner free to all, so the group of twenty can eat together without a hotel. Men remove shirt and vest before entering and wear full pants or a dhoti. Temple lodges fill quickly on weekends and festivals; book well ahead. If the group goes on to Sringeri, it is about 70 km from here.
Looking for a Mysore to Horanadu mini bus to visit the Annapoorneshwari temple, for a group of about twenty? Horanadu (Horanad) is about 260 km from Mysuru via Hassan, Belur and Kalasa. For Horanadu we pick up from a hotel by the palace or a hotel on Hunsur Road. It costs less per head than three cars. Book a mini bus on rent in Mysore through Tejas Tours & Travels.
Route | One way | Horanadu and back | Time by mini bus |
|---|---|---|---|
Mysore to Horanadu via KR Nagar, Belur and Kalasa | About 260 km | About 520 km | About 6 hr with stops |
Out and back comes to around 520 km. One way drops: ask us. A two-day Mysore to Horanadu trip fits this plan well. Fuel, driver and AC are in the rate.

The drive is about 260 km one way, about 520 km in all, via KR Nagar, Hassan, Belur, Mudigere and Kalasa. A mini bus needs about 6 hours with breakfast, a temple halt and lunch, and the last 50 km after Kottigehara are slow.
Yes, but it is narrow and winding past Kottigehara and Kalasa. The driver keeps it slow, so add an hour.
Yes, on request. Ask for a one way quote with your date, and we send it in writing.
Driving late at night means a night allowance for the driver. The quote lists it. Per night it is ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
No. Tolls, parking, permits and GST go on the bill at cost.
The 25 seater, so seats for all and space for bags. All sizes are on mini bus on rent in Mysore.
October to February suits a group best, with dry roads and pleasant weather. The temple is busy on festival days, so check the dates. From June to September the area gets very heavy rain, and the narrow road via Kalasa is slower for a mini bus.
Seat them near the front of the mini bus, where the ride on bends is smoother. Stop at Mudigere for a proper lunch before the bends. Keep water, lemon and a bag for anyone who feels sick. At Horanadu the bus stops close to the temple steps, so the walk is short.
