Through Mysuru and HD Kote to the Kabini backwaters, between Nagarhole and Bandipur. The slowest weekend from Bangalore, and that is the point.

Bikes can't use the main carriageway of the Bengaluru–Mysuru Expressway, so ride the service road. From Mysuru the road through HD Kote is two-lane and quiet, with forest edges near Kabini where animals cross.
