At 7.30 a.m
We started this trip at 7.30 in the morning and stopped for breakfast on our way to Shravanbelgola.
If you are a couch potato like me, you probably wouldn't like the climb. It is around 700 steps. It is not a difficult climb, there are proper steps with railings. I would suggest that do go prepared with proper shoes. The view from the top is worth the effort.

Our next stop was Belur. The Chennakeshava Temple at Belur is a master piece of Hoysala workmanship. Belur was the capital of Hoysalas and later they ruled from Haleebedu, which is our next stop. Take time and explore the motifs on the temples. There are hundreds of stories engraved in stones.
Next, drive to Haleebedu. We first visited Jain Basadi and Kedareshwara temple.
Look out for those pillars. The ornate carvings on the pillars and the lathe turned patterns. This is also your photo op moment.
Head to Kedareshwara temple.
By now it is time for lunch and we ate at Hotel Mayura Shantala, a KSTDC hotel which is right across Hoysaleshwara temple.
One can have lunch and enjoy the view of Hoysaleshwara temple as well.
If you are a history buff then I suggest that you go on a short walk and find that fortwall.
Here are some location (lat, long) to start with.
