Hyderabad to Ahmedabad best route

[parikh.sunny]

I am planning to drive from Hyderabad to Ahmedabad.
Can you guys suggest me the best route?

Any pointer to note down?

 

[Naveen1]

Avoid zaheerabad route, not worth it.
Take a break at Pune.

Day :1
Hyderabad to Pune

Hyderabad to Solapur is in bad shape.

Copying the details from Hyderabad to Pune post.

Hyderabad --> Parigi --> Sedam --> Kalaburgai (Gulbarga) --> Solapur --> Pune

Hyderabd to Parigi : Average

Parigi to Sedam : above average (mix 2-lane toll road)

Sedam to Kalaburgai : Excellent (2-lane road)

Kalaburgai to Akkalkot : average (few bad stretches near to Akkalkot)

Akkalkot to Solapur : average ( some bad stretches)

Few tips:

• Carry enough cash
• Breakfast stop at Gulbarga (Lumbinis grand hotel, neat washrooms)
• Lunch stop at Solapur. (You can find plenty of dhabas from Solapur to Pune)

Day:2
Pune to Ahmedabad
Road condition is top notch, it is completely 4-lane.

Can be easily done under 8 hours in a fast car.

Most of the hotels and fuel stations between Hyderabad --> kalaburgai --> Solapur section does not have card facility.

We had a tough time during our last drive.
It is always better to carry enough cash when you are driving on State highways.

Any suggestions about Aurangabad route via nizamabad

 

 

[Gowtham]

If you start at 3 PM, you won't hit a 4-lane till 9 PM.

It is single lane from Hyderabad to Solapur.

Would suggest you to start little early.

Avoid zaheerabad route, you will come across heavy truck and bus traffic, diversions are unlimited due to road construction.

Avoid that route, it is a nightmare!
Single lane filled with potholes.

Best route:
Hyderabad --> Pune --> Mumbai --> Ahemadabad

[balag]

Hyderabad ------- Pune ------- Ahmedabad

is the best suited route.

Note: Drive to Pune via Gulbarga. Route via Zaheerabad is in it's worst of the conditions.

[rajesh]

Hyd to sholapur last Month I have travel it now in good condition but yes just some place around 20 km all around in 350 km is got diversion or else nice road 4 lane most of place

The best route to drive from Hyderabad to Ahmedabad is 

Hyderabad-Nizamabad-Nanded-Aurangabad- Kannad-Dhule-Surat-Ahmedabad - This road is good and you save good enough on tolls.

Agree that we may save money on tolls.
Toll roads are stress free to drive.

Compared to single lane roads, toll roads are little predictable.
If I am going on a 1200 kilometer road trip, I would always prefer toll road, unless the single road is scenic. 
 

[sunil Phulari]

Yeah agree with you, even I prefer toll roads.

But on the way to Ahmedabad I enjoyed this route.

Anyways we have tolls almost till Nanded ( except the stretch between Nizamabad to Narsi) Nanded to idAurangabad road is in good condition, Aurangabad to Surat road is in super good condition, with very less traffic and soon after you cross Aurangabad the road is scenic and you can even cover Grushneshwar jyothirling darshan which is just on the way.

 

From Surat anyways it's toll again. As I take this route regularly till Parbhani so I am
more Inclined towards this road [emoji16]. I didn't pay toll in MH at all, only toll in TS and Gujrat.

 

While my return journey I took Ahmedabad-Thane-Pune-Solapur-Hyd and got stuck at outskirts of Thane for couple of hours due to some traffic issues and some bridge work, wasted good amount of time in Thane and pune traffic to cross the cities, I was frustrated while driving on solapur- hyd stretch. Thought much on 230rs toll from Thane to Pune express way - did it justified, I don't think so.. the stretch was hardly 70 to 80kms.

We have experienced Hyderabad ORR, so any roads in comparison cannot be justified, not even the vadodara- Ahmedabad express was or Thane -Pune express way[emoji16]

This is worst stretch to drive, Last week I drove from Hyderabad to Zaheerabad. 
Which is better compared to Zaheerabad to Solapur, I got so tired due to numerous switch backs and speed bumps. 

Can't imagine about Zaheerabad to Solapur stretch.

100% to the point.
Hyderabad ORR can be considered as best road to drive in India, considering infrastructure. 

 

Pune and Mumbai traffic is the biggest road block.

Hi Tanveer,

The best route to reach Ahmedabad from Hyderabad is Via Pune and I would suggest you to halt at Pune for the night.

Day - 1

Hyderabad - Parigi - Sedam - Kalaburagi - Solapur - Pune

Hyderabad to Sedam, road is Avg. (2 lane)

Sedam to Solapur, road is Good. (2 lane)

Solapur - Pune, Excellent 4 lane highway. 

 

Day - 2

Pune - Navi Mumbai - Surat - Vadodara - Ahmedabad

Roads are good throughout the stretch. Watch out for tress passers and bikers in the villages you come across in between.

 

Both the days takes you about 13 hours approximately (including breakfast and lunch breaks) to reach your destination for about 650 kms  approximately.

 

Have a safe journey and please do update us back regarding the current road conditions after you are back.

Thank you sagar ,for your quick and detailed reply ,our plan has been postponed to first week of feb now ,one query ,dont you think touching navi mumbai to reach pune from ahmedabad will take time and is it possible to complete ahmedabad pune stretch in 13 hours including lunch or tea breaks even if we go via navi mumbai ??

I suggest you to halt at Pune instead as any other alternative would definitely be doable but just to make sure that you wouldn't get tired for the next day's drive. I would still suggest you to go with the above mentioned plan
