How to Get from Pokhara to Kawasoti

The route from Pokhara to Kawasoti covers a moderate distance of 158 km. It is a classic Nepalese route that bridges two distinct areas of the country. Leaving the mountains behind, you will drop over 822 meters down towards the lowland jungles of Kawasoti. The vegetation changes rapidly from pine forests to dense subtropical greenery. With no direct flights available, the route is entirely overland. You can take a standard bus for budget travel (from $4) or hire a jeep for a faster, albeit bumpier, ride taking roughly 2.2 hours.

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