→West towards Pokhara, southwest to Hetauda, Birgunj by Prithvi Highway
Bear in mind that the shortest road to Hetauda, the NH41 (on Google Maps shown as NH02 - old number), is in terrible condition and only paid for jeeps and a few private cars use it. All trucks and buses go around via Mugling and Bharatpur, so if somebody is going to Pokhara and you're heading south jump on and get off in Mugling. Similarly if you go to Pokhara and the driver says he goes to Hetauda go for it, he'll drop you off in Mugling which is halfway through.
This hitching spot might not be working in the near future as a new bypass of Thankot in Chandragiri municipality is being built. The beginning of the bypass will be [https://goowww.glgoogle.com/maps/whi6zFn75xkNQxyr8 place/27%C2%B041'18.7%22N+85%C2%B014'09.5%22E/@27.688532,85.235968,767m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d27.688532!4d85.235968 here] and that could be the new spot for finding lifts heading west and south.
