Highways of Nepal

Overview

Nepal’s highways connect cities, border points, Terai plains, hill towns, river valleys, and mountain access routes.

Geographic role

Highway routes are shaped by terrain. Lowland highways, hill roads, and river-corridor roads function differently because of slope, rainfall, landslide risk, and settlement patterns.

Travel systems

Highways influence bus travel, trade movement, domestic tourism, festival travel, and access to pilgrimage sites.
