About the trip

Bangalore is Karnataka's capital and the main centre for jobs, higher education, hospitals and international flights. Many people from coastal Karnataka travel there for work, admissions or family, and a car is easier than a bus when carrying luggage or elders. The route climbs from the coast through the Shiradi ghat to Sakleshpur and Hassan, then runs on the Bangalore–Hassan highway.
