Walking to Jomsom

Two weeks in Nepal

I decided to walk the last 35 kilometers to Jomsom from Ghasa after having made very little progress using public transportation the day before. I figured I'd stay close to the road and jump on a jeep if any were passing, but as the day went by I enjoyed walking so much I ended up walking most of the distance on smaller paths before finally stopping a passing jeep for the last 8 kilometers between Marpha and Jomsom. For the curious there is also my diary from the walk to Jomsom.
