Mullayanagiri Peak
Steps to the top. The Urbania waits at the parking; it is a walk in from there. The AC van is there for seniors while the others walk around.
Baba Budangiri
On the next ridge. The driver stays close with the Urbania. The Urbania handles the hill road well.
Hirekolale Lake
Our Urbania pulls over here. Quiet lake with the hills behind it. Small group, so no waiting around.

Pickup at your door
The Urbania comes to your hotel near the palace, your home, Mysore railway station or the bus stand. Tell us the bag count when you book, so the driver plans the luggage space for a full group. We go out on the Hunsur road and turn for Hassan at Bilikere, about 25 to 27 km from the city, where a big overhead board shows the SH57 turn. A start around six puts you on the summit road by late morning. On the way back, aim to reach Mysore before ten if anyone wants to shop, since most shops and restaurants close by then.
Tea stop
About 40 km out, KR Nagar is the first town on the Hassan road and a fair place for a ten minute tea halt. Vegetarian eateries open from about seven, and the tea shops sell Osmania biscuits and small date cakes. A little ahead on the Hassan road, about 4 km out, the Yedatore picnic spot has benches on the Kaveri bank, handy if children need to stretch their legs. The road stays easy from here to Holenarasipura, so the driver keeps a steady pace towards Hassan.
Breakfast
Hassan, at about 950 m, is where the group sits down for breakfast. A round of Malnad filter coffee comes first, and akki rotti, the rice flour flatbread, follows quickly for a table of twelve. Allow 25 minutes. Cardamom, pepper and coffee from the Sakleshpur estates are sold here if you want to buy early. The Doddagaddavalli Lakshmi Devi temple of 1114 AD, with four shrines, is another Hoysala temple of the district, better kept for the way home. Belur is about 38 km on, and the driver takes the road that leaves NH75 here.
Temple halt
Belur gives the group its main sightseeing halt of the morning. The Chennakeshava temple, dated by Karnataka Tourism to 1117 AD, is free to enter, and footwear stays at the stand. Keep 50 minutes. Those who finish early can walk about 800 m south to the Amrutheshwara ruins, or rest in one of the small hotels near the temple that serve simple Malnad meals. Before moving on, count heads at the vehicle. Chikmagalur is about 25 km away, and from there the hill road begins.
Lunch and fuel
Chikmagalur, at about 1,040 to 1,090 m, is the third highest city in Karnataka, and the group eats lunch here before the hill. Keep 40 minutes. The driver picks a hotel with room to park the Urbania off the main road, and akki rotti or kadubu with filter coffee fills everyone up. Coffee powder and black pepper are the things to carry home. Ayyanakere lake is in the same district if anyone asks, but today the plan is the summit. Fill water bottles here, since the ridge has stalls but no proper shops.
Summit parking
The Urbania waits at the summit parking while the group climbs. The steps, 464 of them, are stone and concrete, and in wet months they turn slippery, so keep children close and elders on the rail side. Plan the top for the morning, because the wettest months in Chikmagalur are October, August and July, and the hilltop is often misty. There are no rooms up here, so book the night in Chikmagalur town, about 20 km below. Winter in the base town runs about 11 to 20 C, and the ridge feels colder in the wind.

Mysore to Pondicherry
We recently completed our Pondicherry trip with Tejas Tours and Travel Company, and overall we had a very good experience. Shashikala coordinated with us from enquiry to booking and throughout the trip. She was well-communicated, supportive, and checked in with us daily to ensure everything was fine.

By road the summit is about 205 km from Mysore, so the round trip is about 410 km. The Urbania runs via KR Nagar, Holenarasipura and Hassan, then turns north west to Belur and Chikmagalur. It takes about 4 hours with stops, and the last 20 km above Chikmagalur is slow hill road.
Yes, Mullayanagiri one way on request; it runs ₹2 a km over a return, as a written quote.
Past 10 pm on the Mullayanagiri trip, our driver gets a night allowance of ₹700 a night.
The 12 seater. Each size and rate is on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore. Mullayanagiri is ₹25,400 for 600 km at ₹40/km in any size, plus ₹1,400 driver's allowance.
Breakfast at Hassan and lunch at Chikmagalur is our usual Mullayanagiri plan. The Urbania parks at the door, so older people walk very little.
No. GST, tolls, parking and state permits if any are added at the real cost on top of the ₹40/km fare.
Yes. Asphalt now reaches near the peak, and the Urbania handles it at a slow pace. The road is narrow, so the driver gives way at bends and stops only where there is room. On busy weekends, parking near the top fills early and staff may hold vehicles lower down. An early start from Mysore avoids most of that.
Pack a warm layer for each child, because the ridge is cold and windy even when Mysore is warm. Carry shoes with grip for the steps, a change of socks in the wet months, and snacks, since the stalls near the parking sell little more than tea and corn. Children who feel sick on bends should sit near the front for the last stretch.
