Group boarding
The mini bus leaves at 6:30 am from one agreed meeting place, and the coordinator ticks off twenty names before the door closes. With one halt, Wayanad is about two and a half hours away. If the group wants Mysore Palace, it opens about 10 am to 5:30 pm, so the evening of the return day or a separate morning works better than today. The bus takes the Nanjangud road south. Big bags ride in the rear, and water stays under the seats.
Darshan halt
For a group darshan, the mini bus can halt at Nanjangud, 25 km south. The Srikanteshwara temple spreads over roughly 50,000 sq ft, so twenty people can move round the courtyards without crowding on a weekday. The bus waits on the temple road, and thirty minutes inside is normal. On the way out, look for the old Kabini road and rail bridge, dated 1735 and now a protected monument. After the temple the bus continues to Gundlupet and the forest belt.
Tea and head count
At Gundlupet the group gets fifteen minutes for tea and restrooms, and a head count follows before the doors close. Food in town is limited to small eateries, so a group that has skipped breakfast should wait for Bathery. In the Onam weeks some travellers now stop at vineyards around Gundlupet, an idea for the way back. Diesel goes in while the group drinks tea. Of the 55 km left to Bathery, about 25 km is forest where the bus may not stop.
Elephant forest
Muthanga sits in the southern half of the Wayanad sanctuary, and its herds are the reason the area joined Project Elephant. From the bus, elephants and gaur are common sights, and the driver slows down without stopping. A safari for twenty needs three forest department jeeps, since each takes about seven, and tickets are sold at the counter. Remember that this road is shut to traffic every night between 9 pm and 6 am, which fixes the latest departure from Bathery.
One hotel for the group
After about two and a half hours the mini bus reaches Sultan Bathery and stops at the group's hotel, which should have room for the bus near the highway. The town is Wayanad's main transport junction, so rooms and meals for twenty are easy to arrange. History lovers can visit Thovarimala, where old inscriptions are cut into the rock, a short drive away. Pepper and cardamom sold in the market make useful gifts. Lunch can be a Kerala meals plate for everyone.

From Mysore the mini bus drives about 115 km to Sultan Bathery, so roughly 230 km for the return. The road is NH766 the whole way, via Nanjangud and Gundlupet and across the forest at Muthanga. Plan about two and a half hours, with one tea break at Gundlupet.
On request, yes. Tell us the date and where to pick up; the quote comes in writing.
Yes, but not on a Monday. Leave Mysore by 6:30 to finish the climb before the afternoon.
NH766 through Bandipur is closed from 9 pm to 6 am, so the return leaves Bathery by around 5 pm. Night driving, if ever needed, adds the night bata. Our card says ₹600 to ₹700, by size per night.
No, they are extra at cost. The mini bus, fuel and driver are in the rate.
The 20 seater. Compare sizes on mini bus on rent in Mysore.
A group gets the most out of Bathery between October and May, when outings stay dry, and December to May adds the Muthanga safaris. The rains of June to September are heavy; drives slow down and some sights close, though the hills are at their greenest.
No, because the barriers on the forest highway stay down from nine at night until six next morning. The mini bus should leave Bathery in the early evening. A group that wants a late dinner can stay one more night and leave after the gates open.
