@abhi, the last time I took route 1, which was over a year ago, the road between Chikmagalur and Birur was terrible. Don't know if the road has been repaired. It's only for that single reason that I would stick with route 2. |

Hi, I am not sure if thread already exists on this !! I am planning to travel from Bangalore to Chikmagalur this weekend. The intention is to be away from Bangalore for 2 days, maybe leave Bangalore on Friday afternoon and be back by Sunday evening. Any suggestions on route and place to visit and stay is most welcome. |

There are 2 routes to Chikmagalur: Route1: Bangalore - Tumkur - Arsikere - Kadur - Birur - Lingadahalli - Chikamagalur (you will cover Kemmanagundi) Route2: Bangalore - Neelamangala - Kunigal - Chennarayanpatna - Hassan - Belur - Chikamagalur (Original route) You can try out both the route, one for going and one in the return. Search for homestays / hotels in Chikamagalur. Abhi |

I stayed in a place called WoodWay, its about 15 kms from Chikmagalur. Try checking on this URL - Wood Way Estate, Chikmagalur - Address, Phone Number, Website, Price - Book Wood Way Estate The cost is pretty steep - Rs.2000 per person per day (this includes stay and food), but the facility is good for the price you pay. Its run by a family, so you will have a homely touch for the facility you get. Worth trying :) |

MapmyIndia.com Online maps, GPS Navigation, Driving Directions, Local Search shows a major road (thick line) from Chikmagalur upto Tarikere. Is this the normal route to kemmenagundi? On this road, at Lingadahalli, we need to take a left, right? can someone mention the importants points en-route? Unfortunately, kgundi is not marked in this, otherwise comprehensive website. |
