Pickup
Half past six, and the van reaches your first boarding point in Mysuru, a family home in Vidyaranyapuram, perhaps, then a lodge by the palace. First time visitors can save Chamundi Hill for the morning after the trip; some 13 km from the city it rises to about 1,060 m, and more than a thousand steps lead to the temple. Luggage rides at the back. Our driver takes the Hunsur highway out of town and forks right onto SH57 at Bilikere.

Tea halt
KR Nagar, roughly 40 km from Mysore, gets a fifteen minute tea halt. Grandparents who enjoy a quiet shrine can stop at the Lakshmana Tirtha temple on the way home; it sits among paddy, a short drive out on the Mysore road. The town itself stands near 786 m, west of the KRS reservoir. From here SH57 carries little traffic, so the 80 km to Hassan go by quickly. Tea stalls by the bus station open early.

Breakfast
Hassan, about 120 km out, is breakfast at a hotel where fifteen can sit together and the van parks at the door. Ragi mudde with green curry suits the hungry; dosa and filter coffee suit the rest. In the Hasanamba festival days around Deepavali the temple opens for its short yearly darshan and the town fills with crowds, so in October or November we keep to the bypass. Thirty minutes here, then Arsikere, about 45 km on.

Snack halt
Arsikere, around 165 km from Mysore, is a short snack halt in coconut country. Coconut and copra are the local produce, and the market at Tiptur nearby auctions copra twice a week. For families with time on the return, the Sahasrakuta Jinalaya, a Hoysala era building of 1220 AD, is in town, and the Veerabhadra temple at Jajur is about 2 km from the centre. Fifteen minutes is enough today. Kadur is about 38 km ahead.

Drive on
Kadur, about 205 km out, is a drive through for the van. The KSRTC bus stand and depot sit beside the highway, and the town's name is said to mean the home of the sambar deer. The road from here joins NH69, which runs on through Bhadravathi and Shivamogga towards the coast. Chikmagalur branches off on NH173. Shivamogga is about 70 km on, so the group should reach it before lunch.

Restroom halt
Bhadravathi, roughly 255 km from Mysore, gives the group ten minutes for the washroom. A day trip from Shivamogga can take in the Bhadra dam at Lakkavalli, which lies 18 to 20 km from this town, if the group has a spare afternoon. Bhadravathi itself is a steel town; its plant was called Mysore Iron and Steel in the old days. Near Tarikere stands Amruteshwara, another Hoysala temple. Shivamogga is only about 20 km on.

Group drop
About five and a half hours of driving, halts counted, bring the tempo traveller into Shivamogga (Shimoga), where the group is dropped at its hotel. The old spelling gave way to Shivamogga in 2014, so bookings and signboards may show either name. Areca trading keeps this city of over three lakh people busy. For the coming days, Thirthahalli lies about 60 km away, Sagar about 80 km and Jog Falls about 110 km.

Shivamogga (Shimoga) is about 275 km from Mysore, close to 550 km for the return trip. Our van follows SH57 through KR Nagar to Hassan, then the highway past Arsikere, Kadur and the steel town of Bhadravathi. With tea, breakfast and short halts, plan on roughly five and a half hours of driving.
A late night return adds the driver night allowance. The quote lists it. Expect ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.

October to March is cool and clear, the easiest months for the outdoor sights around the city and for Jog Falls nearby. From June to early October Shivamogga gets most of its rain; the road stays open, but the waterfalls in the district are at their fullest then, so many families choose August and September on purpose.
It is. Five and a half hours with three breaks means nobody sits longer than about ninety minutes at a time. Seat grandparents in the front rows and keep snacks and water within reach. Arsikere and Bhadravathi both make tidy washroom stops, and the van pulls up close to the hotel entrance on arrival.
