Hi @chandrakant, Considering your start point as Gachibowli, suggested route would be

 

Day - 1

Gachibowli - Mahbubnagar - Raichur - Gadag - Hubbali - Dharwad - Dandeli

Road till Dharwad is good all the way which will take you less than 12 hours for about ~500 kms.

The next 70 kms to reach Dandeli resorts will take you about 2 hours through the forest due to the road conditions.

 

Day - 2

Spend the day in Dandeli doing activities like Water rafting, Natural water Jacuzzi, Kayaking and forest trails.

 

Day - 3 (Dandeli - Gokarna)

There are usually 2 routes to reach Gokarna.

Route 1: Dandeli - Kulgi - Bhagvati - Idgundi - Hiregutti - Gokarna

Shortest route (ghat section) - 3 hours drive for 130 kms

Route 2 : Dandeli - Kumbarwada - Anshi National park - Karwar - Ankola - Gokarna

The above route measures about 170 kms and takes 4 hours. More enjoyable drive and scenic than Route 1 as it involves the ghat drive and a coastal drive from Karwar.

 

Start off early around 6 AM to enjoy the drive. You will reach Gokarna before 10 AM and the rest of the day is yours at Gokarna to enjoy the beautiful beaches.

 

Day - 4

Gokarna - Hubbali - Sindhanur - Raichur - Mahbubnagar - Gachibowli

 

650 kms and 14 - 15 hours including breaks. Make sure you start early to cover up more miles by escaping early morning city traffic near Hubbali.

 

Drive Safe and Have a great trip ahead

Hi Vaseem,

Hyderabad to Dandeli can be done in 14 hours including a breakfast stop and a lunch break.

The best available route would be Hyderabad - Mahbubnagar - Raichur - Sindhanur - Dharwad - Dandeli

 

The roads until Mahbubnagar is excellent.. And it starts to deteriorate from Deosugur - Raichur - Sindhanur  

 

I hope this helps you for your road trip.. Do share us your feedback on the road conditions after you are done with your trip  Drive safe

Hi Sagar,

 

 Thanks for the Route-Details. Sure I will update the Road condition once done with Trip. I hope the conditions of the road to be good or at least average.

This route has lot of speed breakers and time taking. Try to go via rout 1 - Raichur, sindhanur, Gangavathi
Or try rout 2 - humnabad , Gulburga, Bijapur, bhagalkot, Hubli....
I feel route 2 is better and takes less time..

All the routes are equally bad.

 

I heard from Raichur to Ganagavathi , they are laying new road.

Not sure about the recent status.
