Bandipur, Manakamana and Gorkha

Hello Mantoug,

I want to provide you some advice because I am also from a village or Gorkha and a Professional trekking guide in Nepal.

If you want to do short trekking:

First: Go to Bandipur and

Second: Catch a bus from Bandipur to Kurintar

Third: Catch a Cable car to Manakamana temple

Forth: Trek to Gorkha and Stay overnight

Fifth: Catch a bus to Pokhara or Kathmandu

If you do not want to do trekking:

First: Catch a bus to Kurintar and catch a cable car

Second: Catch a bus to Bandipur

Third: Catch a bus to Gorkha

Forth: Drive to Pokhara or Kathmandu

Its better to get a private car from Kathmandu because the places are in short duration so that you may have trouble on getting buses.

Best of luck.
