| ![]() Planning to drive down to South Goa this weekend in a Zoom car, would anyone know where the first RTO office is located upon crossing the state border from Karwar? Would need to pay for the State visitor permit since its a commercially registered vehicle |

| ![]() Anyone tried the Bankapur Yellapur stretch recently. I am heading there tomorrow and wanted to check the road condition. My vehicle has decent ground clearance and i am ok with a bit of rough road if this route is scenic. Also in one of the post i see a mention of a Tibetan monastery midway. Anyone has more details like is it worth stopping there? Advance thanks for a speedy response. |

Mundgod is a small town with a sizable Tibetan population. Infact i was told that it is the second largest Tibetan area in India after Dharamshala. I did not stop there and cannot comment on how the temples were. | |

| ![]() I was in Goa last weekend. Return from Goa-Hyderabad. Palolem -Ankola-Khalghatgi-Tadas-Muthalli-Dabaspete-Devanahalli-Hyderabad. Khalghatgi-Tadas-Muthalli. The initial stretch from Khalghatgi-Tadas is single road. In good condition single road.Speedbreakers every 3-4kms.Not an issue. Tadas-Muthalli Very short stretch but road condition is very average.Potholes are there but manageble. Last edited by gajadonga : 22nd August 2014 at 11:23. |

Vento should peacefully do it. You speeds may be a little slower for the first 15-kms but should be good beyond that. Going via Hubli is another 60-70 kms additional. | |

For Haathi Mahal at Cavelossin, you need not touch Madgao as is normally done. About 7 Kms before Madgao, you will come across a junction with board BETUL towards the left side. Take a left turn at that junction and you will reach chinchinim church junction( about a km down). Take a right there and follow the road. after about 4 -5 Kms you will come at the Varca - cavelossim road. take left here and about 3 Kms from here is Haathi Mahal. The normal Madgao route will be longer by say around 10-12 Kms https://www.google.co.in/maps/dir/Ch...3.945!2d15.174 | |

Onwards was via Raichur-Koppal-Hubli-Karwar. the roads are good throughout. The stretch from Raichur to Gangawathi is average. Always wanted to drive Chitradurga-Tumkur 6 lane. that was the itch for the detour. | |

Appreciate if you could let me know if you used this route? Where was the RTO office? How long did it take to pay the permit charge and how much? | |
