How to Get from Kathmandu to Cazê

Prepare for a long journey. The 497.2 km trip between Kathmandu and Cazê requires some planning, but the scenic transitions make the long hours worthwhile. Leaving the mountains behind, you will drop over 1400 meters down towards the lowland jungles of Cazê. The vegetation changes rapidly from pine forests to dense subtropical greenery. Overland bus travel is the standard mode of transport here, usually taking between 9.4 and 9.4 hours depending on road conditions. Tickets start from $13.

Advice: You are heading into the tropical Terai region. Bring mosquito repellent and wear light, breathable clothing.
