Distances differ between sources and routes. Confirm current road conditions before you travel.

By road

Follow the Beni–Jomsom road along the Kali Gandaki river. The road is paved to Beni and rough beyond it, so a high-clearance or 4WD vehicle is the safer choice. Start early: Pokhara to Jomsom takes roughly 6 to 9 hours. Landslides can block the road at any time, most often in the monsoon.

By air

Pokhara to Jomsom flights take under 30 minutes and leave early in the morning, before the afternoon winds. They can sell out or be cancelled, so keep a road backup. From Jomsom, Lete is about 35 to 45 km back down the valley by road.

By bus

There is no dedicated bus to Lete. Buses and shared jeeps run from Pokhara towards Jomsom along this road, so ask the driver to drop you at Lete. Timetables change, so check the current departure with the operator or the resort.
