Board early
Fifty devotees board at one gate at five in the morning. That hour lets the coach clear the junction near Manipal Hospital, where the expressway meets the ring road and traffic usually backs up, before the city wakes. The tank is filled the night before, and big bags go into the hold. Each person keeps a small bag with water and a towel for the walk round the hill. The run takes about nine hours with halts.

Group breakfast
Breakfast for the whole coach is ordered ahead at Maddur. The bus takes the expressway exit and parks by a service road hotel that can seat a large group. In the days of the old road this town was everybody's halfway snack stop. SH 33 branches south from here to Malavalli and Shivanasamudra, so the junction is busy with buses and trucks. Forty minutes with restrooms and a roll call, then the expressway again.

Permit check
The coach halts at the border post near Hosur, where the driver pays road tax and collects the permit; vehicles with an All India permit may have interim relief from that tax. Devotees use the restrooms at a highway hotel that has bays for coaches. Tamil Nadu state buses run from Hosur to every big town, a fallback if someone has to travel separately. Fifteen minutes, then NH44 south east.

Lunch for fifty
Lunch for fifty has been booked at a Krishnagiri hotel with coach parking beside the highway. After the meal the bus turns onto NH77 for Tiruvannamalai. Krishnagiri summers, from March to June, are hot and dry, so every water bottle is refilled here. Adhiyamankottai, an old fort site about 45 km to the south, could anchor a heritage trip another time. One hour, a roll call, and the bus moves.

Drive through
The coach runs through Uthangarai without stopping. It is a town of schools and colleges at about 360 m, on the outer edge of Krishnagiri district, and the highway narrows here in places, so the driver keeps a steady, careful pace with trucks around. Hanumantheertham on the Pennaiyar, about 10 km away, suits a separate visit. Chengam is next, about 25 km on, where the group gets tea. Devotees can rest their eyes.

Tea for the coach
The coach stops twenty minutes for tea at Chengam, in the pass between the Javadhu and Chennakesava hills. The driver pulls into a proper bay, never the narrow shoulder. Heavy rain falls here from September to December, so wet roads are common then. From Chengam it is about 35 km to Tiruvannamalai, under an hour for a full bus. Count heads before moving; the next stop is the lodge. Restrooms are near the stand.

Temple town
About nine hours from Mysore by bus. Buses park outside the temple streets, and the group walks to the lodge. On full moon days the town fills with walkers, so arrive well before evening. Girivalam round the hill is about 14 km and takes three to five hours on foot; the path is lit and has toilets. Karthigai Deepam, in November or December, needs bookings months ahead. Agree one meeting spot by the bus.
Arranging Mysore to Tiruvannamalai bus hire for a Girivalam group or a Karthigai Deepam visit with 45 devotees? One bus keeps everyone together for the darshan and the walk around the hill. We board at a Mysuru temple hall, a school ground or the city bus stand. Book bus on rent in Mysore with Tejas Tours & Travels.

Tiruvannamalai is about 350 km from Mysore, about 700 km for the round trip. The bus goes by the expressway past Maddur, NICE Road and Hosur Road, NH44 to Krishnagiri, then NH77 through Uthangarai and Chengam. A full bus needs about nine hours with halts.
On full moon nights the town is packed, so we plan arrival before evening. A late night run adds the driver night bata from the vehicle rate card, shown in your quote. Our card says ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size per night.
About 14 km around the hill, barefoot for most. Allow four to five hours.
The 49 or 50 seater. Sizes on bus on rent in Mysore.
Yes, ask us. A one way bus is quoted ₹2 a km above the return rate, on paper before you pay.
They come on top. 3 days, 900 km, 49 seater: ₹51,600 hire and ₹3,000 driver bata. Tolls, Tamil Nadu entry tax, parking and GST come at cost.
Yes, but plan carefully. Millions come for the festival in November or December, when a huge ghee lamp is lit on the hilltop and seen from about 30 km. Buses park at the edge of town and the group walks in. Book lodges months ahead and arrive a day early.
Split into groups of ten with a leader each and one meeting point by the bus. The 14 km walk takes three to five hours, so set a return time. Carry water and towels. The path has toilets and is lit at night, so evening walks are common.
