How to Get from Janakpur to Changunarayan

Prepare for a long journey. The 215 km trip between Janakpur and Changunarayan requires some planning, but the scenic transitions make the long hours worthwhile. Located in the province, the journey features rolling landscapes with minimal elevation gain or loss. With no direct flights available, the route is entirely overland. You can take a standard bus for budget travel (from $6) or hire a jeep for a faster, albeit bumpier, ride taking roughly 2.9 hours.

Tip: Book your tickets at least a day in advance during the peak trekking seasons (Spring and Autumn) to secure the best seats.
