Mysore to Kashmir: Complete 2026 Tour Package Guide

Mysore carries royal weight, the Mysore Palace still lights up on Sundays, and the city’s sandalwood and silk trade trace back to the Wadiyar dynasty’s patronage. Kashmir has its own royal-era leftovers, the Mughal terrace gardens above Dal Lake were built for exactly the kind of leisurely, ornamental strolling Mysore’s palace grounds are known for.

How to Reach Kashmir from Mysore

Mysuru airport has limited scheduled flights, so most travellers take the roughly 3-hour road trip to Bangalore, which has strong Srinagar connectivity.

Bangalore runs direct flights to Srinagar on select airlines, roughly a 4-hour nonstop, otherwise it’s a Delhi connection. Counting the Mysore-Bangalore leg, total travel time is usually 7-9 hours. Bangalore itself has a direct Srinagar flight, which makes this one of the better-connected routes once you’re past the short Mysore-Bangalore hop.
