Congrats for the quick travelogue for your Long Weekend.

Which route you took? Three plans proposed but not clear which one you took?

How is the road to Paykara Lake? Any recent repair works done?
Now Paykara looks better with water compared to our previous visit during July.

to the Resort and Coonoor > Ooty > Masinagudi > Bandipur > Gundlupet > Najangod > Mysore > Malavalli > Kanakapura > Bangalore

How is the road to Paykara Lake? Any recent repair works done?
Now Paykara looks better with water compared to our previous visit during July.

Road is still the same with lots of potholes

Beautiful snaps. The room looks cozy & comfy I had been till Mudumalai recently on a casual drive, but the road from there onwards deterred me from going further.

Hope you took the avalanche route to upper bhavani. How is the road condition ?

Road Conditions was OK upto but you have to use Government Shuttles to get there as they don't allow private vehicles
