How to Get from Namche Bazaar to Kshireshwornath

Prepare for a long journey. The 299 km trip between Namche Bazaar and Kshireshwornath requires some planning, but the scenic transitions make the long hours worthwhile. The trip involves a massive descent from the high altitude of 3440m down to 0m in the tropical Terai plains. You will feel a dramatic shift towards a warmer, more humid climate. With no direct flights available, the route is entirely overland. You can take a standard bus for budget travel (from $8) or hire a jeep for a faster, albeit bumpier, ride taking roughly 7.6 hours.

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