1. No idea

2. Hubli-Yellapur-Sirsi-Siddapura-Jog falls is very good. Watch out for mine trucks in Hubli-Yellapur section. Yellapur-Sirsi-Siddapura-Jog Falls is very good. The road was newly laid and was good upto last month (should still be holding good)

3. RNS guest house is built for the budget traveller, while RNS residency is a complete hotel with a restaurant, swimming pool and other facilities. The tariff here is around 1300 bucks a night for a double room I think. I don't remember exactly. I would suggest you to stay here. Take my advice and ask for a room with a sea view.

There a resort (also owned by RNS) called Naveen Beach Resort nearby, you can enquire there also.

4. Kollur Mookambika temple closes doors at 12 noon and again opens in the evening. There is a dress code for men. No wearing shirts & banians inside the temple complex.

5. Sringeri temple is open till 8 in the evening. Prasadam will be given throughout the afternoon. The mutt I think is open till 3 pm (??)

6. Murdeshwar to Kollur should take you about an hour and a half max depending on traffic & Baindur to Kollur is a narrow single lane road.

Kollur to Sringeri should take you around 3 hours. The route is Kollur - Vandse - Shankarnarayana - Halady - Someshwara - Agumbe - Sringeri. This route is a single lane road, but it is good enough. Watch out for private buses though.

From Sringeri, the best route to Udupi would be Sringeri-Agumbe-Someshwara-Hebri-Manipal-Udupi. Road conditions have detiorated nearing Manipal.

I have stayed in RNS Guest House, it is old and not well-maintained.

Sringeri - I recollect that the Sharada temple closes at noon. And Sankaracharya gives darshan in the Mutt at 5 pm (or so I was told).

[sushrutha]

Waterflow at Jog falls is normal, But definetely it's worth a visit. Linganmakki is almost full.
RNS residency is 2500Rs/day for AC(including Tax). You also have NON AC rooms for 1800Rs
