Group pickup
The mini bus leaves at 6 am from one meeting point. Members coming to the pickup from the station or the city bus stand can take an auto from the prepaid counters there. Keep pickups to one, or two at most, so the first hour is not lost. Horsley Hills is about 305 km away, about seven hours with stops. Bags go to the rear and racks; jackets stay in hand luggage.
Breakfast
The Hoysala era Narasimha temple in Maddur, with a black stone Ugra Narasimha about 7 ft tall, is about a kilometre from the highway, a quick darshan if the group is early. The mini bus reaches Maddur, 65 km out, for breakfast; people say the vada began with vendors at the town's railway station. Twenty minutes for the group at a roadside eatery with room for the bus. Bangalore comes next.
City crossing
A mini bus needs to cross Bangalore, about 145 km from Mysore, to reach Hoskote, and timing matters: a 10 km city drive takes about 36 minutes on an average day and longer in the evening peak. The driver avoids the KR Puram junction at peak hours and uses the ring roads where they help. No stop in the city; restrooms come at Hoskote. Horsley Hills is about 160 km on.
Tea
Twenty minutes at Hoskote, about 175 km from Mysore, gives the mini bus group tea and the restroom at a highway hotel with space for the bus. The town marks the edge of the Bangalore sprawl on Old Madras Road. Here the route to Chintamani and Madanapalle leaves NH75 and heads north east, while traffic for Kolar and Tirupati keeps straight. The state road ahead is narrower, so the bus keeps a careful pace.
Tea
Chintamani, about 220 km out, has some of the largest silk and tomato markets in Karnataka, and lorries loading tomatoes are a common sight. The snack shops are known for chakli, nippat and groundnuts, which travel well. The mini bus stops fifteen minutes on the main road for tea. Rayalpadu and the Andhra border follow, and the bus reaches Madanapalle for lunch a little over an hour later. Buy a box of snacks for the evening on the hill.
Lunch
Madanapalle, about 275 km from Mysore, is where the mini bus group has lunch, forty five minutes at an eatery with enough tables for everyone. Madanapalle silk sarees are woven by families in Neerugattupalle, near the town, a buy for the ladies, and Rishi Valley School lies a short drive out. After lunch the road to the hill leaves town, and the bus takes the ghat slowly in low gear, so allow a little extra time before check in.
Drop at your stay
The mini bus pulls in at Horsley Hills about 7 hours after leaving Mysore, the last bends taken in low gear. At about 1,265 m this hill station is far cooler than the plains. The driver stops at the resort or the group's cottages and parks where the staff direct. One block of rooms for the whole group keeps things simple. Rest after lunch and see the hill in the evening.
Looking for a Mysore to Horsley Hills mini bus for a cool weekend on the hill, for a group of about twenty? Horsley Hills is around 305 km from Mysuru via Bangalore, Chintamani and Madanapalle. Book a mini bus on rent in Mysore with Tejas Tours & Travels. For Horsley Hills we pick up from Mandakalli airport or your office in Hebbal. It costs less per head than three cars.

By road Horsley Hills is about 305 km from Mysore, about 610 km for the round trip. The mini bus takes the expressway to Maddur, crosses Bangalore to Hoskote, then follows the state road through Chintamani and Madanapalle and up the ghat. It takes about 7 hours of driving with stops.
Yes. We quote one way drops in writing once we have your date.
Yes. The ghat from the foot is a road of bends; a bus goes up in low gear.
The 25 seater, so all get a seat and the bags go in. Each size and rate is on mini bus on rent in Mysore.
No. The Andhra Pradesh entry permit for a tourist vehicle is extra too. Tolls, parking and GST are added at actual, with the receipts.
Late night driving adds a night allowance for the driver. It is shown in the quote. Rate card figure: ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
October to May is pleasant, and summer is the busiest time, as families escape the heat of the plains. The monsoon months make the ghat slower and wetter but the hill greener. Summer weekends fill the rooms, so book early if the group is large.
We prefer to come down the ghat in daylight. The road from the hill is curvy, and the Bangalore crossing late at night is quiet but long for a tired driver. Leaving the hill after breakfast gets the group back to Mysore by evening. If you must leave late, tell us in advance.
