How to Get from Janakpur to Rangeli

Prepare for a long journey. The 206.2 km trip between Janakpur and Rangeli requires some planning, but the scenic transitions make the long hours worthwhile. The terrain remains consistent without drastic altitude changes, keeping you at roughly 0m. This makes for a smoother physical transition compared to high-altitude mountain routes. With no direct flights available, the route is entirely overland. You can take a standard bus for budget travel (from $5) or hire a jeep for a faster, albeit bumpier, ride taking roughly 3 hours.

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