About Gokarna Forest Resort

Gokarna Forest Resort is a luxury 5-star eco-resort located in Thali, about 9–10 km from central Kathmandu, Nepal. It is set inside a protected 470-acre ancient forest, which was once a private royal hunting reserve of Nepal’s kings, giving it a unique mix of heritage, nature, and exclusivity. The resort is known for its peaceful forest environment, wildlife sightings (deer, monkeys, and birds), and Himalayan views, making it feel like a natural escape despite being inside Kathmandu Valley. Guests stay in well-designed rooms, suites, and cottages that blend modern comfort with traditional architecture inspired by Malla and Rana styles. It also features high-end facilities including an 18-hole golf course (one of the most famous in South Asia), spa and wellness center, indoor pool, fitness center, and multiple restaurants and bars. These amenities make it popular for both relaxation and recreation.
