Pickup for elders
The Urbania arrives at 6 am, and the driver helps elders up the step and loads their bags. Venur is about 260 km away, five calm hours with breaks. If elders like palaces, Jaganmohan and Lalitha Mahal are quieter palace sights in Mysore for the day after the trip. Shawls and cushions stay in the cabin for the cool Coorg morning. The van leaves by the ring road for the Hunsur side.

Soft breakfast
Breakfast for the elders happens in Hunsur, a little river town roughly 800 m above the sea, where the hotels steam idli early and the coffee is strong. Our Urbania halts at the hotel entrance itself, so nobody has to cross the busy highway on foot. Twenty minutes allows the meal, tablets and the restroom. For a quiet day out later, the Tibetan monasteries of Rabgayling at Gurupura are just 12 km from the town. Kushalnagar is 40 km further.

Monastery town nearby
The Urbania crosses Kushalnagar, the Kaveri town at the gateway of Coorg, without stopping, because traffic on its main street is heavy and slow. Six km before the town, on the Mysore side, is Bylakuppe with its gilded Tibetan temple, a calm and level place many elders enjoy on the drive home. The local shops also sell spices and Ayurvedic oils. From here Madikeri is just 30 km up the hill.

Tea and coffee shopping
At about 1,170 m, Madikeri is the coolest stop of the day, so elders should keep their shawls on while they drink tea. The van rests fifteen minutes and is refuelled meanwhile. Coffee from Coorg carries a GI tag, and honey from the bee keepers' society near the post office is a favourite gift, though both are easier to buy on the return. After town the driver eases into the Sampaje descent at a slow, steady speed.

Rest after the bends
Sullia waits at the bottom of the long descent from Madikeri, about 50 km of curves now behind the elders. Areca and rubber plantations line both sides of the road. A quarter hour here with buttermilk or weak tea lets everyone settle, and those who prefer can rest in the van with the AC on. It is noticeably warmer, so shawls can be folded away. The road onward to Uppinangady, 45 km, is much easier.

Temple at the confluence
In Uppinangady the Kumaradhara pours into the Netravati, and the old Sahasralingeshwara temple, probably 13th century in its present form, stands right at the meeting of the waters. Many lingas lie in the riverbed, which gives the shrine its name. The Urbania stops close by, and twenty minutes covers a short darshan. Soft kotte kadubu and patrode are good with tea afterwards. Venur is about 45 km further, on the road that leaves NH75 here.

Drop near the compound
At Venur the Urbania pulls onto the open ground beside the statue compound, so elders face only a short walk. Footwear is left outside the compound, and the stone gets very hot in the afternoon sun, so cotton socks help. Simple coastal vegetarian food is available nearby. For a quiet night, Moodabidri is about 20 km away and Mangalore around 50 km. The driver waits at the gate until the elders return.

It depends on the month. From June to September the rain is very heavy, and from March to May the coast is hot and humid. November to February is the most comfortable, with dry days and cooler nights. Plan the visit for the morning so elders avoid the midday heat on the stone compound.
The Sampaje ghat below Madikeri has about an hour of bends. The Urbania has a smooth ride and wide seats, and the driver keeps a slow, steady pace. Elders who feel unwell on curves should eat lightly at Madikeri and sit in the front rows. There is a rest stop at Sullia right after the ghat.
