By road to Javamane:
If traveling via Mysore:
-------------------------
The route via Mysore, is the oft-frequented route. But, this is
entirely on State highways and after a place called Hunsur, there is a stretch
of pretty bad road. Once you cross this stretch, the scenic view of the
drive through the coffee plantations will absorb you more than the
not-so-good condition of the road.
The townships enroute to Javamane:
Mysore, Hunsur, Priyapatna, Kushalnagar, Suntikoppa (from Suntikoppa
Javamane is a 20 minute drive).
If traveling via Neelamangal:
------------------------------
The other route is via Neelamangal, Kunigal, Chanrayapatna, which are
all located on the National highway. This is a beauty of a road.
However, after Chanrayanapatna, it's back to state highways but the roads
aren't so bad.
If traveling via Mangalore:
----------------------------
The townships enroute to Javamane from Mangalore, Puttur, Suliya,Sampaje, Madenad, Madikeri (From Madikeri Javamane is half an hour's drive,
you will find a small village town called Madapur enroute).
