We collect the group from one meeting point or from two or three homes in Mysuru, and the bags go in at the back before anyone sits, so the aisle stays clear for the hill road. The traveller heads west only as far as Bilikere and then turns for KR Nagar and Holenarasipura on SH57, a road with much less traffic than the main Hunsur highway. In September or October, Dasara diversions slow every city exit, so start earlier then. The summit is about 205 km away.
Tea stop
The traveller's first stop is KR Nagar, a paddy town on the Kaveri side at about 786 m, west of the KRS reservoir. Fifteen minutes gives the group tea, Osmania biscuits and a restroom. Even at six the KSRTC canteen is serving, so an early start finds something hot. Do not park at the little garden in front of the station, where parking is not allowed; the driver waits on the main road. Holenarasipura is about 45 km on, and Hassan, with breakfast, after that.
Breakfast
Hassan is the breakfast halt, a little past the halfway mark at about 120 km. For a group of fifteen, order kadubu with coconut chutney for the table, since it comes out fast, and finish with Malnad filter coffee. Keep about 30 minutes. From about July to October the Shettihalli Rosary Church, built by French missionaries in the 1860s, stands partly under water in the Hemavathi backwaters about 20 to 22 km away; it suits a return day, not this morning. From Hassan the road turns off NH75 towards Belur, about 45 minutes on.
Temple halt
Belur gives the group its temple halt. The town stands on the Yagachi river, higher than any other town in Hassan district, and its Chennakeshava temple, along with Halebidu and Somanathapura, joined the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2023. Everyone leaves footwear at the stand and walks in together, then meets back at one fixed spot by the vehicle. Keep 45 minutes to an hour. In March the Hoysala Mahotsava brings stages and crowds. Lunch is in Chikmagalur, about 25 km on.
Lunch and fuel
Chikmagalur is the lunch stop and the last town before the climb. One hotel can seat fifteen people together if the driver calls ahead from Belur. Malnad meals here mean akki rotti and kadubu, with filter coffee to finish. Buy coffee powder in town, because the ridge has only stalls. The road up winds for about 20 km and is narrow, so anyone who feels sick on bends should take a front seat. The summit sits at about 1,925 m, and even the town is at about 1,090 m in parts.
Summit parking
The tempo traveller stops at the parking below the summit, and the last part is on foot, 464 steps up. Elders can wait at the tea stalls while the rest climb; set a meeting time before anyone starts. Asphalt now reaches near the peak, and the old foot trail was called Sarpadari. No hotels stand on the ridge, so the night stay is down in Chikmagalur town. In December, Datta Jayanti brings crowds and bus limits to this range, so check the dates before you fix the trip.

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. 👍

It is about 205 km one way and about 410 km there and back. The tempo traveller goes by Bilikere, KR Nagar and Hassan on SH57, then Belur and Chikmagalur, where the narrow hill road starts. Plan on about 4 hours with a tea halt and breakfast, and more if you stop long at Belur.
Yes, both are on the same hills. Do Mullayanagiri first, then Baba Budangiri, then back to Chikmagalur for the night.
Yes. A written one way quote follows once you send the date.
Yes, a night bata is added if the tempo traveller drives late at night. For Mullayanagiri you see the figure in the written quote first. Per night it is ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
The 16 seater; big suitcases need the spare seats. It works out to ₹19,200 for 600 km at ₹32/km, and ₹1,200 driver allowance. See tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
No. Tolls, parking and GST are extra at actual cost. Out of state, the permit is extra too.
November to February suits a group best. The days are dry, winter in Chikmagalur runs about 11 to 20 C, and the summit view is usually clear in the morning. July, August and October bring the heaviest rain and thick mist. Avoid the Datta Jayanti days in December, when crowds fill the range and buses face limits on the hill road.
We avoid it. The last 20 km above Chikmagalur is narrow and winding, and fog often settles on it in the evening. The driver plans to be off the hill before sunset and back on the Hassan road, where night driving is easier. If your group wants sunset on top, stay the night in Chikmagalur and drive back to Mysore the next morning.
