Bangalore to Kushalnagar

Escape the city chaos on a scenic drive from Bangalore to the coffee-scented hills of Kushalnagar, the gateway to Coorg. This 3-day couple's getaway features Tibetan culture at the Golden Temple, intimate nature walks in Dubare, and sunset views at Chiklihole Reservoir. Stay in a romantic coffee estate homestay and enjoy the smooth cruise on the Mysore Expressway, noting the revised toll charges of ₹370 for a one-way car journey, effective July 21, 2026. Be prepared for digital-only toll payments (FASTag/UPI) as cash transactions have been discontinued from April 1, 2026. Note: Ongoing construction for a flyover and underpass at the Mysuru Ring Road junction on NH-275 may cause temporary delays or diversions around Mysuru. Be aware of ongoing heavy to very heavy rainfall, strong winds, slippery ghat roads, and potential landslides in Coorg (Kodagu) and South Interior Karnataka due to the advancing monsoon from early June 2026. Expect reduced visibility and possible traffic disruptions. Travelers are advised to build buffer time, check local road conditions, reduce speed before bends, maintain a larger distance from other vehicles, avoid sudden braking, use headlights when visibility drops, and avoid night driving on ghat roads.
