Pickup for elders
The Urbania collects elders at 6 am. If relatives arrive by train, Mysore Junction has lifts and escalators across its six platforms, so the meeting is easy for older travellers. Nagarhole is about 95 km away, roughly two hours with a breakfast halt, and the forest roads there are open only from 6 am to 6 pm. Shawls and cushions go in the cabin, because forest mornings are cool in winter.
Optional tea
At Bilikere, about 25 km from Mysore, the smooth four lane highway ends and the road narrows towards Hunsur. If elders want a warm drink or a restroom, the Urbania can halt here for ten minutes; otherwise it carries on to Hunsur for breakfast. Close to Bilikere stands Gommatagiri, a small Jain hill topped by a statue of Bahubali, a peaceful place for elders to visit on the way home if time allows.
Soft breakfast
Elders breakfast in Hunsur, a town on the Lakshmana Tirtha at about 800 m, where the air stays pleasant even in summer mornings. The Urbania pulls up at the hotel steps, and soft idli and coffee appear quickly. Allow twenty five minutes, and make sure everyone uses the restroom, because none are available once the forest begins. The town lives on teak and tobacco, with an ICAR tobacco research station inside it. The driver refuels before leaving.
Drive on
Hanagodu is a sleepy village beside the Lakshmana Tirtha, with a weir across the water about 15 km past Hunsur. The Urbania normally carries on without stopping so elders can doze. If anyone needs bottled water, biscuits or tea, the small shops here are the last ones before the forest begins. After Hanagodu the road continues for roughly 25 km through farmland and scrub to the park gate at Veeranahosahalli.
Forest gate
At the Veeranahosahalli check post the elders stay in their seats while the driver hands over the passenger list, the vehicle number and the head count. Beyond the barrier vehicles are not allowed to halt or let anyone out, so this is a drive for watching from the windows; deer and sometimes elephants appear near the road. The Urbania moves slowly and smoothly on the forest track. Shawls help, since the shade under the trees is cool.
Forest reception
The Urbania reaches the Nagarhole reception roughly two hours after leaving Mysore, and elders can sit in the shade while the family finishes formalities. There is no hotel inside the park, so carry fruit, biscuits and any special food elders need, or eat at a forest lodge. Winter nights from November to January can fall to about 12 C, and summer afternoons reach around 32 C. Nothing plastic may be left behind.
Would a Mysore to Nagarhole Force Urbania suit your group of 10 with elders who want a soft ride? The forest road is narrow and slow, and the Urbania takes it gently. We pick you up in Mysuru at Mysore airport at Mandakalli or the railway station. Tejas Tours & Travels has run Force Urbania on rent in Mysore since 2009.

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.

Plan for near 95 km to the park and about 190 km back and forth. The Urbania follows the Hunsur road by Bilikere and Hunsur, passes the river village of Hanagodu, and enters at Veeranahosahalli. With an easy halt for elders, expect roughly 2 hours.
Sure. A written one way quote follows once you send the date.
For 8 or 9 people, the 10 seater. See every size on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore. For 16, the 16 seater. For 10 to 13, the 12 or 13 seater.
No. GST, tolls, parking and any permit are charged at actual.
A night allowance applies when driving goes past 10 pm; we show it in the quote. Our card says ₹700 per night.
Yes. The forest vehicle has steps up; the ride is bumpy, so keep it to one slot.
Mornings and nights are chilly from November to January, dropping to about 12 C, so elders need sweaters, caps and a shawl, especially on an early drive. Days warm up by mid morning. Summers reach about 32 C, and the monsoon from July to October brings rain that can stop safaris.
Yes, at Hunsur, where we stop for breakfast, and at Bilikere if needed. There are no restrooms on the forest road after the Veeranahosahalli gate, and vehicles may not stop inside the park, so elders should use the restroom at Hunsur. The forest reception and lodges have facilities.
