Pokhara is the second largest city in Nepal. It is the starting point for most of the treks in the Annapurna area. The road is winding with many switchbacks but offers wonderful views of hills and rural Nepalese lifestyle. The drivers will generally not drive too fast but some will calmly weave in and out of the stream of opposing traffic and slam on the brakes when a stop is required, making for a scary ride if you look out the front window. During the rainy season, there may be problems with the roads and flying may make more sense.
Yeti Airlines, Buddha Air, and Simrik Air are reputable airlines that operate regular flights 40min) that can be purchased online and at the last minute.
