Around seven the Urbania collects the group from a hotel, a home or the railway station. Gift shopping, Mysore silk, sandalwood carvings and incense, is better kept for the evening, since shops open late. Our road leaves the city on NH275 as far as Srirangapatna and then turns left for Pandavapura and KR Pet. Shravanabelagola is about 85 km away, roughly an hour and a half with one halt, so the group reaches the hill while the morning is still cool.
Temple halt
Thirty five minutes at Srirangapatna, about 15 km out, for darshan at the Ranganathaswamy temple. The island town stands at about 679 m between two arms of the Kaveri, and the old Wellesley bridge over the river dates from 1804. At Sangama, where the arms meet again, stalls sell cut fruit with salt and spice, a good snack for the road. The Urbania then leaves the highway for Pandavapura, about 15 km north.
Tea stop
The Urbania halts fifteen minutes at Pandavapura for tea. Near the KRS reservoir, not far from here, the 12th century Venugopala Swamy temple was moved out of the water and restored by 2011, worth a visit on a slower day. Melukote, famous for its Iyengar style puliyogare, the tamarind rice given as prasadam, lies about 25 km away. KR Pet and breakfast are about 25 km further on. Restrooms are better at the next stop.
Breakfast
Breakfast for twelve is at KR Pet, a little over 50 km from Mysore, and 25 minutes covers a plate and coffee. This corner of Mandya district is full of small Hoysala shrines; at Govindanahalli, the Panchalingeshwara temple of about 1238 AD has five sanctums and is protected as a monument of national importance. Meat eaters can ask for the Mandya farm meal of ragi mudde with a country chicken curry. The Jain hill town is about 30 km further.
Drop at the hill
About an hour and a half after leaving Mysore, the Urbania stops beside the temple tank where the path up Vindhyagiri begins. Shoes stay with the attendant at the foot, who charges a small amount. The hill shuts for the hot midday hours and opens again in the afternoon, so climb in the morning or after half past three. Once every twelve years the Mahamastakabhisheka draws enormous crowds; the next one is due in 2030. Jain vegetarian meals are served in town.

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 Shravanabelagola is about 85 km from Mysore, so the round trip is about 170 km. The Urbania goes past Srirangapatna and then by Pandavapura and KR Pet. Allow about 1.5 hours, a little more with a darshan halt at Srirangapatna.
No. For Shravanabelagola, GST, tolls and parking come at actual cost over the ₹40/km fare.
The driver gets a night allowance when the drive goes late into the night. Expect ₹700 a night.
The 12 seater. Every size is ₹40/km, so this trip is ₹12,700 for 300 km at ₹40/km, plus ₹700 driver's allowance. All sizes are on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
We plan breakfast at KR Pet. The Urbania parks at the door, so older people walk very little.
Yes, on request. Give us the date and head count, and the one way fare comes back in writing.
October to February is best for the barefoot climb, with cool mornings. March to May is hot, so the group must climb before 10 am. In the monsoon the drive is fine, but the rock steps can be slippery. Check the Mahamastakabhisheka dates, due next in 2030, when the crowds are very large.
Yes. The road from Shravanabelagola to Mysore via KR Pet and Pandavapura is short and easy, so a return in the evening is fine. Many groups climb in the late afternoon, after the hill reopens around 3:30 pm, and drive back by night. The Urbania reaches Mysore in about an hour and a half.
