Temple hall pickup
Devotees gather at 5 at a temple hall, the city bus stand or your association's gate in Mysuru, and the bus loads everyone in one go. If your group meets near the palace, the Palace Board lot at the Varaha gate has space for coaches, charged hourly. The coach leaves the city by the expressway, crosses the Kaveri at Srirangapatna and swings off at Pandavapura for KR Pet. Kollur is about ten hours away. Tag every bag in the hold with a name.

Breakfast
The coach stops for breakfast at KR Pet after 55 km, about an hour and a half into the day. This Mandya district taluk town has hotels on its main road big enough for a group of devotees. Mondays are best avoided, as a large coconut market crowds the town that day. Thirty five minutes covers breakfast and a head count. Channarayapatna lies about 40 km on, where the coach joins NH75 for a short stretch.

Tea
At Channarayapatna, 95 km out, the coach gets a fifteen minute tea halt at a highway hotel with a yard. NH75 is tolled here, and the bus pays through its FASTag. Behind us, about 40 km back towards the city, lies Bellur Cross, where NH150A meets this highway, though our road came a different way. Leaders should count heads before the coach turns off for Arsikere, about 60 km ahead, and then the long run to Shivamogga.

Tea
Arsikere, 155 km from Mysore, is the coach's last halt before Shivamogga. The driver stops on the main road, since the old town lanes are tight for a big vehicle. History lovers may note two forts nearby, the ruins at Haranahalli about 8 km south and Nagapuri on Hirekal hill about 11 km north, both off our road. Fifteen minutes for tea and the washrooms. Shivamogga, the lunch halt, is about 95 km on.

Lunch
Shivamogga, which many still know as Shimoga, is the lunch halt at 250 km. As the gateway to the Malnad hills it is a large city, and several hotels can seat a full coach at once. Rain here is heaviest from June to early October, and in those months we allow extra time for the hill road beyond Hosanagara. Forty five minutes for lunch and a head count. Kollur is 115 km on, the last part through the Ghats.

Tea
The coach makes its last stop at Hosanagara, 315 km out, waiting on the main road for fifteen minutes while the group uses the washrooms and buys water. The old Nagara fort lies about 17 km away, not on our road. From here the route to Kollur, 50 km, runs through Ghat forest on a narrower road with bends, and the coach keeps a slow, careful pace. There is no good place to halt after this, so everyone should be ready before we move.

Bus parking and darshan
After roughly ten hours the coach reaches Kollur and parks where the temple village allows; the group walks the last stretch to the Mookambika temple. Traditional dress is expected, and cameras must stay outside. Opening hours stretch from early morning to night, but festival days and afternoon breaks change them, so leaders should check at the counter. Temple guest houses take groups if booked in advance. Mangalore airport is about 140 km away, for anyone flying home.

About 365 km from Mysore to Kollur Mookambika by road, so about 730 km for the round trip. The bus runs via KR Pet, Channarayapatna and Arsikere, then Shivamogga (Shimoga) and Hosanagara. A full bus needs about 10 hours with breakfast, lunch and tea halts.
One way is on request, at ₹2 more per km than the return rate. Kollur: billed km are fixed as a written quote in the quote.
The 40 or 45 seater; a shorter bus suits the ghat. Sizes on bus on rent in Mysore.
Yes. Both are on the coast near Kollur. Add a day for them.
No. A 49 seater for 3 days, 900 km at ₹54/km is ₹48,600, plus ₹3,000 allowance for the driver. Tolls, parking and GST are added at actual.
The forest ghat down to Kollur is driven by day, so we reach Hosanagara before dark. If the driver still works late at night, the night allowance on the rate card applies. ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size a night is the bus rate.
October to March is the pleasant season. From June to early October the Shivamogga and hill side gets heavy rain, and the bus moves slowly on the wet road after Hosanagara. Summer days are warm but the road is dry. Book temple guest houses early for festival days.
It can, but we advise a daylight trip. The last 50 km from Hosanagara are a narrow hill road, better driven in light, and a group that sleeps in bus seats is tired at the temple. Leaving at 5 am reaches Kollur by afternoon, with darshan in the evening and the next morning.
