India Nepal Border Crossing

Amazing Nepal border crossing from India by rickshaw after 2 flights from Ladakh - the northern most state in India, a 14 hour train ride from Delhi, a share jeep and now a rickshaw. If you have never seen the border of Nepal this is a must see.

But its not an easy journey overland from Delhi. It's a 14 hour train ride from Delhi to Gorukphur in Northern India near the border of Nepal. Then no more trains.

You gotta take a share jeep or a bus in Gorukphur to Nepal. I recommend the share jeep but you are then smashed into a jeep that takes more people than it can safely hold, forget about seat belts.

Then comes the hard part. Its hot sticky sweaty and there's lot of humanity on board but usually you end of making friends so if you don't want to fly into the Kathmandu airport this is the only way to do it. Or you can take the bus from Sikkim and journey in from the East side of Nepal but that was even more difficult. 

I have visited Nepal 6 times in the last 12 years. The best thing you can do is go here and discover it for yourself.
