One boarding point
Coaches need room, so we gather at 5:30 am in a college ground or a hall yard in Mysuru, one site for everyone. Avoid Vijayadashami for this trip; on that day in recent years heavy and light vehicles were barred from entering the city along the Hunsur and KRS roads from six in the morning till midnight. Suitcases go underneath, umbrellas stay aboard. Our coach leaves on the Hunsur road and branches onto SH57 at Bilikere, with KR Nagar about 40 km on.

Optional tea
The bus can halt ten minutes at KR Nagar, about 40 km out, if the group wants tea. The Bilikere turn is about 13 to 16 km behind, and the road from here is much quieter than the Hunsur highway. The paddy and sugarcane fields of the Kaveri plain are all around. The bus station canteen opens around 6 am. Hassan, the breakfast stop for fifty, is about 80 km on.

Breakfast
Hassan, about 120 km from Mysore, is breakfast for fifty. We use a highway hotel with space for the coach, and the group eats in two sittings; idli, vada and coffee come out fastest. Gendekatte biodiversity park sits about 6 km from town, and Holenarasipura's terracotta pots are sold across the district, but neither fits today. Allow forty minutes including the roll call. The coach then heads north for Kadur, about 80 km away.

Tea halt
The coach makes its Kadur tea halt near the 200 km mark, pulling onto the NH69 shoulder by the bus stand, where a long vehicle fits. This is a small town, about 34,151 people at the 2011 census, with plain hotels and plenty of tea stalls. Shivamogga airport is about 76 km from here if a member must fly out. Fifteen minutes covers washrooms. Shivamogga lunch is about 75 km ahead, Jog roughly 180 km.

Lunch for fifty
Lunch for fifty is in Shivamogga (Shimoga), around 275 km from Mysore, at a restaurant with a dining hall and open ground for the coach. One hour covers the meal and a roll call. This city ranks among the largest areca markets in Karnataka, and sacks of nut are a common sight on its roads. Diesel is filled here. From Shivamogga, the remaining 105 km through Sagar to the falls take a loaded coach about two hours.

Tea halt
Sagar, around 350 km out, is the last halt before the falls. The coach waits on the highway while the group walks to the tea stalls. Areca is the cash crop here, and pepper, clove, cinnamon and nutmeg grow in the gardens between the palms. Twenty minutes covers tea and washrooms for fifty. Jog is about 30 km ahead on NH69, a forest road without public toilets, so everyone should use the facilities here.

Falls parking
Expect about nine and a half hours of driving, halts included, before the coach pulls into the bus bay at the Jog parking. The gate collects entry and parking charges that change from season to season. With fifty people, settle one gathering spot and one departure time before anyone walks off. The steep stairway to the bottom, about 1,400 steps, is best left to the fittest few. July and August bring the heaviest water and the thickest crowds.

The falls lie near 380 km from Mysore, so a return trip covers about 760 km. Our coach travels SH57 to Hassan, crosses the Kadur plain, stops at Shivamogga and Sagar, and finishes on NH69. With halts for fifty people, expect roughly nine and a half hours of driving each way.
Under 35, the 33 or 35 seater; around 40, the 40 seater; 45 to 50, the 45, 49 or 50 seater. Compare sizes on bus on rent in Mysore.
A one way drop to Jog Falls is quoted when you ask, ₹2 a km above the return rate.
Yes, at the main lot. Weekends in August get busy, so we start early.
If the driver drives after 10 pm, a night allowance is added. The amount is in your quote. On our Mysore card that is ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size a night.
On the 380 km road to Jog Falls, GST, tolls, parking and permits are added at actuals.
Yes, the main parking has space for buses, and the road from Sagar is a good highway. On monsoon weekends, July and August, the parking fills early and the road gets slow near the falls, so a weekday visit is easier for a coach. In heavy rain the viewpoints are slippery; the group should walk slowly.
Over two days. Leave Mysore at 5:30 am, see the falls in the afternoon and stay the night in Sagar, about 30 km back. See the falls again next morning when the light is better, then drive back. One coordinator with the name list, and a fixed meeting point at the parking, keeps fifty people together.
