Taking public transport to the fall
Public buses and shared vehicles in Pokhara serve local routes rather than a single visitor stop, so reaching Devi’s Fall by public transport means checking the current service rather than following an old timetable.

What local transport in Pokhara looks like
Pokhara’s public transport is built around local routes, with buses and shared vehicles connecting neighbourhoods and the areas around the lake. A waterfall in Chhorepatan is a stop along the way, not typically a dedicated terminus.
That means the useful question is not “which bus goes to the waterfall” but “which current service passes closest, and where do I get off”.
What to confirm before boarding
Ask the operator or a local at the stop, because services, stopping points and frequencies change with the season and with road conditions.
- Confirm that the service passes or stops near Chhorepatan.
- Ask exactly where to get off, using the name Devi’s Fall Pokhara.
- Check the return direction as well, since the last service may be earlier than you expect.
- Keep the fare ready in small notes, as no fare is stated here.
- If you are unsure of the stop, ask the conductor rather than guessing.
Why no route or timetable is printed here
No route number, timetable, fare or journey time appears on this page, because none of them has been verified and all of them change. A figure copied from an old post can send you to a stop that no longer exists.
Treat online transport advice as a starting point for a question, not as a schedule. The person at the stop or on the vehicle is the reliable source on the day.
Access still has to be confirmed
Arriving by bus does not guarantee a visit. Google Maps listed the waterfall as temporarily closed when checked on 26 October 2026. No current management confirmation of the reason, reopening date, hours or fee has been verified.
Confirm entry before you travel, and keep another stop in the same area in reserve in case the site is not receiving visitors that day.
Short answers
Which bus goes to Devi’s Fall?+
No specific service or route number is verified here. Ask a local operator which current service passes closest to Chhorepatan and where to get off.
How much is the bus fare?+
No fare is given here because it has not been verified. Check with the operator on the day and keep small notes ready.
Do buses run in the evening?+
Service patterns change with the season and daylight, so confirm the last return with the operator rather than assuming a late service.

Getting to the fall from Pokhara’s airport
Arriving by air to Devi’s Fall means two separate steps: confirm which Pokhara airport you land at, then arrange ground transport to the waterfall pin in Chhorepatan. Onward access still has to be checked on the day.

Reaching the fall from Damside
Damside and Chhorepatan sit on different sides of Pokhara, so the trip is a cross-city ride rather than a short walk. Confirm the direction, agree the pickup and fare, and settle how you will return before you set out.

Finding the waterfall from within Chhorepatan
If you are staying or arriving in Chhorepatan, you are already next to the waterfall area, so the main tasks are locating the correct entrance and confirming that access is open. Ask locally rather than assuming the route from the map pin.
