Gokarna Forest Golf Resort & Spa is nestled deep inside the serene Gokarna Forest, traditionally the private Royal hunting grounds of the Kings of Nepal, situated within the city limits of Kathmandu, capital of Royal Kingdom of Nepal.
A winding, climbing road through the forest leads to sixteen exotic cottage rooms, set serenely besides century old trees. An adjacent restored Hunter's Lodge, once used by Royal Shikaris, provides the reception, bar, and restaurant facilities in an authentic traditional ambiance.
The Spa includes a variety of rejuvenating courses, emphasizing Ayurvedic treatments. The Health club encompasses an indoor temperature controlled pool, and the changing rooms each have a Sauna, Steam room, and Jacuzzi. The large well equipped gym is one of the finest in the country. A quiet walk to the clubhouse brings you instant access and preferential tee times at South Asia's finest resort golf resort.
The perfect getaway for sharing quiet moments, pampering the mind and body, a few days of challenging golf, enchanting forest walks, and time close to nature.
