Pickup in Mysore
Twenty people with bags need room to load, so the mini bus picks up at Bogadi or near the KSRTC suburban bus stand on Irwin Road, one or two points at most. We roll out at 5 am. Many groups carry boxes of Mysore pak, the ghee rich gram flour sweet, as a gift for hosts at Karanja; buy it the evening before. Bags go in the back, small ones under the seats. Bangalore is about 145 km away, crossed before the office rush.
Ring road and breakfast
Bangalore, about 145 km from Mysore, is skirted on the outer roads, and the mini bus picks up NH44 heading north. A 2026 report said road works on Ballari Road could slow traffic towards the airport at peak hours, so the driver crosses early. Breakfast for twenty is at Chikkaballapur, the first breakfast town on NH44, about 58 to 65 km beyond the city, at a hotel with parking for the mini bus. One person collects the bill for all. Thirty minutes, then the long run to Penukonda.
Tea
The tea and restroom stop for the group is Penukonda, roughly 280 km out. Jain members will want to know that the town has a long Jain history, and the old Ajitnath temple is here, a short darshan on the way to Karanja. The Babayya Dargah, the tomb of the 12th century Sufi saint Baba Fakhruddin, is honoured by Hindus and Muslims alike. Twenty minutes and a head count, then roughly 75 km to Anantapur and lunch.
Lunch
Lunch and diesel are at Anantapur, about 355 km out, before the run to Kurnool. Highway hotels here serve twenty quickly, and the mini bus parks in front. The district grows groundnut, sunflower and cotton, and the roadside shops sell roasted groundnuts, a good snack for the afternoon. The Clock Tower and Sapthagiri Circle mark the centre, but the bus stays on the highway. Forty five minutes, a head count, and about 150 km to Kurnool.
Night halt
We stay the night at Kurnool, about 505 km from Mysore. Book one hotel for twenty near the highway. Just across the Tungabhadra on the Telangana side lies Alampur, with the Jogulamba temple and the Navabrahma temples, an hour and a half for a group that returns this way with time. Kurnool district is also known for diamond hunting after the first rains wash the topsoil away, a story the group may hear at dinner. Day two is about 385 km.
Breakfast
Breakfast for the group is at Jadcherla, about 615 km out, a municipality in Mahbubnagar district that grew from a census town in 2011. It lies on NH44 about 21 km from Mahabubnagar. One order for twenty is faster than twenty separate ones, so the leader calls it ahead. The mini bus parks off the highway. Thirty minutes, a head count, then about 100 km to the Hyderabad ring road.
Tea
At Shamshabad the mini bus takes the Outer Ring Road, which leads round the city to the Nizamabad highway, so twenty people are not stuck in Hyderabad traffic. Hyderabad is about 715 km from Mysore. A tea halt at a place with yard space for the mini bus is enough. Golconda Fort, begun by the Kakatiya king Ganapatideva, has an evening light show, a good plan if the group returns this way. Kamareddy is about 120 km on.
Lunch
Kamareddy, a district headquarters on NH44, is lunch for the group, 835 km into the trip and roughly 55 km before Nizamabad. The driver chooses a highway hotel with space for the mini bus and seats for twenty at one time. With twenty people, restrooms first and food after keeps the halt to forty five minutes. Fill the water bottles here. After a head count, the night halt is just over an hour away, so the afternoon is relaxed.
Night halt
Night halt for day two is at Nizamabad, about 890 km out, reached in the afternoon. Group lodges here take twenty people. The Rashtrakutas built the fort in the 10th century, and the Qilla Ramalayam temple on top makes an evening walk for the group, about 2 km from Gandhi Chowk. Telangana meals are the local food for dinner. Day three is about 295 km to Karanja, with an early start.
Breakfast
Breakfast on day three is at Nanded, 1,000 km or so from Mysore. Many groups eat at the langar of Hazur Sahib on the Godavari, one of the five takhts of Sikhism, which serves all who come, and twenty people are fed quickly. Everyone covers their head inside, so carry scarves or handkerchiefs, and leave shoes at the counter. The mini bus waits in the parking. Forty five minutes, a head count, and about 125 km to Washim, the lunch stop.
Lunch
The mini bus stops for lunch at Washim, about 1,125 km out; Karanja is just about 60 km beyond. Order one set meal for twenty to keep the halt near forty minutes. Jain members of the group often use the time for a quick darshan, since Washim has two Jain temples of its own, and the Padmatirtha tank lies in the same town. Do a head count before the mini bus leaves, because the last stretch runs without a planned halt.
Arrival
Around noon on day three the mini bus enters Karanja Lad, after roughly 26.5 hours of driving in all from Mysore. It parks beside the temples, and twenty people walk the short way to their dharamshala with hand bags while the driver unloads the rest. Rooms for a group this size must be booked well ahead, as pilgrim groups fill the town. The name comes from Saint Karanj. Poha and Maharashtrian thali are the local food. A head count at the dharamshala ends the drive.
Looking for a Mysore to Karanja Jain Mutt mini bus for the Jain temples at Karanja, for a group of about twenty? Karanja Jain Mutt (Karanja Lad) is roughly 1,185 km from Mysuru via Bangalore, Hyderabad and Nanded. Book a mini bus on rent in Mysore from Tejas Tours & Travels. For Karanja Jain Mutt we pick up from a hotel on Hunsur Road or a hotel on JLB Road. It costs less per head than three cars.

One way, Mysore to Karanja Jain Mutt is about 1,185 km, so the round trip is about 2,370 km. The mini bus crosses Bangalore to NH44, then runs by Penukonda, Anantapur, Kurnool and the Hyderabad ring road to Kamareddy and Nizamabad, then Nanded and Washim. With stops it is about 26.5 hours of driving over three days, with nights at Kurnool and Nizamabad.
Late night driving adds a night allowance for the driver. The quote lists it. Expect ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
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.
Three driving days each way, with nights at Kurnool and Nizamabad, so the plan bills as 8 days.
No. Tolls, parking and GST are added at actual, receipts shown. The Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra entry permits for a tourist vehicle is extra too.
Yes, that works. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
It can. For the ten days of Dasara, in September or October, Mysore is packed and many roads have diversions. On the last day, Vijayadashami, big vehicles have been kept off most main roads into the city from morning to midnight. If your start date falls in the festival, we pick the group up near the ring road and leave very early.
For twenty people, a suitcase each plus a small hand bag is the right load. Big bags go at the back, small ones under the seats. For the nights at Kurnool and Nizamabad, ask everyone to keep a small overnight bag, so the big ones stay packed till Karanja. Mark each bag with the group name, and leave a little room for gifts on the way home.
