Family pickup
The van comes to your home or to Mysuru Junction at 5, and the family of twelve loads bags at the back. Tell us if any of you speak only Hindi; Kannada is the main language along this road and Hindi is not widely understood outside tourist spots, so our driver helps at halts. The route leaves NH275 at Pandavapura for KR Pet and Channarayapatna. Tonight's halt is Hosapete, 375 km away, and Kanakagiri comes next morning.
Morning tea
Two hours from home the van rolls into Channarayapatna on NH75 and halts fifteen minutes for tea, washrooms and a stretch for the children. Gommateshwara, the 57 ft statue at Shravanabelagola, is 12 km off this road, carved around 981 AD; the hill closes around midday, so on this trip it stays a view from the highway. The town is on the railway to Mangalore and Karwar. Arsikere, the breakfast halt, is 55 km ahead.
Breakfast and fuel
Breakfast for the family waits at Arsikere, 140 km from Mysore, while the driver fuels up. The town stands at about 806 to 812 m, and the Ishvara or Kalameshwara temple here, facing east, is a Hoysala monument of 1220. Twenty five minutes for twelve people keeps the day on time. From here the road runs north through dry farmland to Chitradurga, 105 km on. Hand out water bottles before the van moves, and keep a fruit bag at the front for the long leg.
Lunch
By lunch time the van is in Chitradurga, 245 km out, under hills ringed with old stone walls. Inside the big fort are gunpowder grinding stones, palace remains, a granary and a 40 ft swing stand, but the visit needs hours, so it waits for another trip. Lunch here is jowar roti and north Karnataka curries. After 45 minutes the van leaves NH48 and takes NH50, which goes via Kudligi and Mariyammanahalli to Hosapete, about 125 km.
Night halt
Evening brings the van to Hosapete, 375 km from Mysore, where the family sleeps tonight. It is the headquarters of Vijayanagara district, with a big market area where the family can buy what they need before the smaller towns ahead. Kannada is the main language, with large Urdu and Telugu speaking groups. We pick a hotel with parking for the van, and the driver rests nearby. After an early breakfast the van covers the last 55 km via Gangavathi, reaching the temple before the day heats up.
Tea on the second day
On day two the van crosses the Tungabhadra country to Gangavathi, 410 km out, for a fifteen minute tea halt in the market. The taluk is full of Ramayana sites; Sangapur lake and Pampa Sarovar are listed among them, and the Chikkabenakal caves lie in the same taluk. Hemagudda fort, 14th century, is about 12 km away. Most families save these for the drive back. Kanakagiri is 20 km on, a short run through farm country.
Arrival
The tempo traveller reaches Kanakagiri after about 9 to 9.5 hours of driving. The town is small and the temple streets narrow, so the van drops the family near the temple and waits on a wider road. Wear modest clothes for the temple. Keep shoes in the van, and carry a small towel and water. After darshan the van can take you back to Gangavathi for lunch, since the temple town has few places to eat.

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. 👍

About 430 km one way, about 860 km for the round trip. The tempo traveller goes by Channarayapatna, Arsikere and Chitradurga, then NH50 to Hosapete and on through Gangavathi. It is about 9 to 9.5 hours of driving, which we split with a night at Hosapete.
Only if the Kanakagiri van drives after 10 pm: ₹600 to ₹700 a night, by size.
Yes, on the Kanakagiri tempo traveller with parking and GST.
Yes, a Kanakagiri drop is quoted on request at ₹2 a km over the return rate.
Yes, with one extra day from Hosapete.
The 12 seater. See tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
It is the busiest time. The yearly fair falls in the month of Phalguna, around February or March, and the town fills with pilgrims. The van can still reach the town, but parking moves further out and darshan takes longer. For a quiet family visit, pick a normal weekday from October to March.
One medium bag each goes at the back of the van, and a small bag per person stays at the seat. Hosapete has a large market, so you need not carry everything from Mysore. Keep caps, water and light cotton clothes handy, as the days are warm in this region most of the year.
