How to Get from Mysore to Hanging Huts, Ooty

 


  1. By Bus

    • There are regular buses from Mysore to Ooty (Udhagamandalam)

    • According to RedBus, the trip takes ~5 hours.

    • KSRTC (Karnataka) buses run on this route. 

    • Typical fare range: for KSRTC, older sources say ~₹180–₹426. 

  2. By Taxi / Cab

    • HiTaxi: One-way from Mysore to Ooty — ~₹2,120 for a sedan. 

    • Rajputana Cabs: ~₹10/km for round trip; for one-way drop to Ooty, a sedan can be ~₹2,000–2,200. 

    • EzGo Taxi: One-way sedan for ~₹2,220 (driver + base, toll extra) for Mysore → Ooty. MakeMyTrip: Various car types; a one-way trip starts at ~₹3,033. 

  3. Route Considerations

    • Scenic route: via Bandipur → Masinagudi → Ooty — very beautiful forest ghat route. 

    • Alternate (safer / less steep) route: via Gudalur, especially for night travel or if you prefer gentler roads. 

    • According to some travelers, Bandipur road / forest route has restrictions at night. reaching Hanging Huts Once You’re in Ooty

  • Hanging Huts is located in or near Ooty hills. When you reach Ooty (bus stand or drop-off point), you’ll likely have to take a local taxi or auto for the final stretch to Hanging Huts (unless your resort arranges pickup).

  • It’s a good idea to share your resort name (Hanging Huts) with the taxi driver or via your booking so they can drop you exactly where you need.

Airport Option / Connecting via Airport

  • If by “airport” you meant Mysore Airport (or the airport nearest you), there's no big commercial airport in Mysore for major flights, so most likely you’ll arrive via Bengaluru (Bengaluru International Airport) or Coimbatore Airport, depending on your flight.

  • From whichever airport you fly into:

    • You can book a taxi from the airport to Mysore, and then another leg to Ooty.

    • Or, you could directly book a taxi from the airport to Ooty. (Check out outstation cab services.)

My Recommendation (for a Honeymoon Trip)

  • For comfort + flexibility (especially as a couple): Ooty Taxi is probably the best — you can enjoy scenic stops, travel at your pace, and avoid the hassle of bus timings by booking Ooty honeymoon Packages .

  • If you want a budget-friendly option: Use the bus + then local transport from Ooty town to Hanging Huts.

  • Book your cab in advance (especially on weekends or during peak tourist season) to avoid last-minute price surges or unavailability.
