Crossing from india through Bambasa

[Danny]

Is it still possible and safe to cross from Uttaranchal, India to nepal from Bambasa, India to west nepal.
Did anyone do it recently?

Thanks in advance, Danny

I checked the possibility of crossing through banbassa and it seems to be waste of time.
There is 7pm bus to banbassa. Takes about 7-9 hours. Arrives to the bordes to late to continue to Nepal. Stay overnight.
Bus from Banbassa to either kathmandu or Pokhara takes about 19 hours.
Too much time on the bus basically.

I took jeep from Almora to Kathgodam - 3hours
Train to Gorakhpur - 19:30-11:30 - 16 hours. BUT you can sleep. And it's much nicer.
Gorakhpur to sunauli bus 2.5 hours
Overnight stay at nepali side (or continue the same day, but bus stops at midnight till morning. You'll have to sleep in bus. Not fun)
Sunauli - Pokhara - 8 hours on bus.

That's all folks.
Pokhara is really nice.
