Kakani Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Kakani is an hour by car or motorcycle from Kathmandu, and is a long, though rewarding, bicycle trip. There are a number of restaurants along the route. The road is sealed almost all the way and it is a fairly gentle climb - downhill all the way home!

Kakani is 3.5km off the main Dhunche road; turn right at the crest of the hill, before the Kaulithana police checkpoint.

For Kakani, catch a Trisuli Bazaar or Dhunche bus from counter 30 of the Kathmandu bus station, get off at Kaulithana (Rs 25) and walk the 3km uphill to Kakani.
