The road from Sagar to Bhopal is an absolute beauty. It will not take you more than three hours from Sagar to bhopal. The whole route is lined with lush green feilds on both sides of road.
Enjoy the trip..
EOS..
One place worth your visit is the Raneh Falls which is around 11 kms from the Western Group. You can hire an auto or a car.
Also food at Raja Cafe is excellent. Its just opposite the Western Group and you could relish the view of the temples from there.

2. No We didn't go to eastern group. However you can certainly go to eastern group in the afternoon after you check in your hotel.
3. No idea about the Tourist Village. If its not on the website then most probably it isn't run by MP Tourism.
4. It was damn cold (by our standards) so did not venture out early in the morning
However its a beautiful place. No dearth of photographic oppurtunities.
If you have a day spare then you can take the morning safari to Panna national park. You may not see much of wildlife but its still fun going into the jungle before sunrise. On return from safari you can checkout Pandawa caves which are also in the forest. Beautiful place ....
Have a nice time...

Informative report
Hello EOS,
very informative travelogue especiallythe breaking down of the on road journey. However from Pune/Mumbai it would be too far and air/train travel would seem to be more viable.
Photos are nicely taken and inducing me to plan a trip sooner.
Cheers,
Navin

I need some support to understand which are the alternatives to go from Khajuraho to Varanasi on the 21/22 of August.
I've found an AC3/Sleeper train that starts from 23:40 and arrive at 10:50, but my girlfriend doesn't want to take it, hence I need to find something else....
On Cleartrip I've found the following fligths:
1) a Jet Airways on Aug-21 but it starts too early (13:45)
2) an Air India on Aug-22 but its cost is double than the previous one (22,600 rs)
Is it possible to find something better? Like:
- more suitable and economic flights
- better train from other stations
- bus if feasible...
Let me know,
Andrea

Andrea, There are numerous trains to Varanasi that pass through Satna which is a two hour taxi ride from Khajuraho. Before the railway was extended to Khajuraho, people headed for Varanasi or elsewhere went by bus or taxi to Satna which is east of K. Search Indiamike for posts about this.
On my only visit to Khajuraho I left by evening train to Mahoba where I changed to an Allahabad train that was late. Altogether I spent half the night on the platform at Mahoba.
You should be able to find reserved seating on a train from Satna.
Edit: I suppose the advantages of going via Satna are far more trains and the possibility of travelling by day.
