Pickup at your door
For this short run the cab can come at 7:30 am, to a house, a hotel or the railway station, or meet you off a flight at Mandakalli. Wayanad is roughly 2.5 to 3 hours away, so a light breakfast in Mysore is enough; the local masala dosa, its inside smeared with red chutney, is the classic choice. The car turns south on the Nanjangud road, and the bags fit in the boot with room for a cool box.
Temple town
Twenty five km out, Nanjangud is worth twenty minutes if anyone in the car wants darshan at the Srikanteshwara temple on the Kapila. The tower over the gate rises about 120 ft and was built in 1845. The car can park on the temple street. On Sundays and Mondays the temple keeps longer hours and gets busier. Locals also sell Nanjangud tooth powder, an old ayurvedic brand of the town. Gundlupet is about half an hour further south.
Last fuel
Gundlupet is where you top up the tank and stretch for ten minutes over coffee. Kerala and Tamil Nadu are both a short drive from here. In a wet year the fields outside town flower in yellow and orange between June and August, and a roadside photo takes a minute. After Gundlupet comes about 25 km of reserve where cars may not stop, and its gates shut to traffic at 9 pm.
Sanctuary drive
The Kerala half of the forest is Muthanga, a range of the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary. Gaur, deer, peafowl and sometimes elephants appear beside the road; the cab slows for them but never stops. Should you want a jeep safari later in the trip, the forest department sells seats at its counter for a dawn and an afternoon slot, first come first served, so get there half an hour before. Your hotel in Bathery is only about 15 km beyond the trees.
Drop in town
2.5 to 3 hours or so after Mysore, the car sets you down at your Sultan Bathery hotel or homestay. The town is about 900 m up, a busy road junction with buses to Ooty, Kozhikode and Mysore. A Kerala meals lunch is easy to find on the main street. For shopping, the market stalls have pepper, cardamom, coffee, honey from the forest and bamboo work. Staying in Kalpetta instead? It is another 25 km along the highway.

We (15 families) hired a bus from Tejas to one of the resort at Kanakpura. Interacted with Lakshmi madam and requested her to provide a good Cab . The bus reached at exact time for pickup, the bus was extremely good and looked a new one only. Thanks Tejas team and Lakshmi madam, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend to avail their services.

Sultan Bathery is about 115 km from Mysore, so roughly 230 km for the round trip. The cab takes the Nanjangud road and NH766 through Gundlupet and the Bandipur and Muthanga forest into Wayanad. With a short halt it is about 2.5 to 3 hours by car.
Yes, extra km are added at the car rate.
Yes. We quote one way drops in writing once we have your date.
The forest closes at 9 pm, so the car leaves Wayanad in time. Night driving adds a night allowance. That comes to ₹400 a night.
No. Tolls, parking, GST and the Kerala permit are extra.
Innova Crysta. All cars on cab rental in Mysore.
Yes, NH766 through Bandipur and Muthanga is open to day traffic all year, but closed from 9 pm to 6 am. In the monsoon, June to September, the forest is lush and the road can be wet but stays open. The Muthanga safari is best from December to May and is often avoided in the July to September rains.
Yes, it is only about two hours each way, so a day trip works. Leave Sultan Bathery by about 6 pm so the cab clears the forest before it closes at 9 pm. Keep snacks and water in the car, as there is no stopping inside the forest, and use the restroom in town before leaving.
