Makwanpur's 'Kailash-Baikunth Zipline' was tested on Saturday. The first phase of the newly built 'Kailash-Baikunth Zipline' was tested in Kailash Rural Municipality-2 Baikunth. The municipality claims that it is probably Nepal's first zipline built from its own budget.

A 1,200 meter long zipline connects the two hills of Kailash and Baikunth. After the operation of the zipline, it is expected to become a destination for tourists from Rorang, Benighat, Gajuri rural municipality of Dhading and Thaha Nagar, Raksirang, and Manhari villages of Makwanpur. Due to the border with Dhading, there is a road network of about 33 km from Benighat, Thahanagar, and Manhari Bazar to reach the zipline site . In the first phase of the testing of the zipline, the braking system (Solop) has been tested.

Zipline technician and trainer Vadriya Ghimire said that the zipline will be fully operational after the second phase of testing. Village Chairman Lok Bahadur Moktan said that after the completion of the first and second phase of testing, the zipline will be put into operation with the new year. ``At the place of going up and down the zipline, infrastructure including toilets are yet to be built. We will build it soon,' he said .
