Rara Highway (National Highway 56) is a proposed national highway in Nepal which is being conducted in Karnali Province. The total length of the highway is proposed to be 223.91 kilometres (139.13 mi). According to SNH2020-21 110.02 kilometres (68.36 mi) of track has been opened in four districts; Salyan District (34.42 km (21.39 mi)), West Rukum (18.73 km (11.64 mi)), Jumla District (29.76 km (18.49 mi)) and Mugu District (27.11 km (16.85 mi). [1] [2]

DPR has been advanced for the road upgrading of the touristic Rara highway in Karnali province. DPR has been advanced for upgradation of 20 km road.[3] Also a feasibility study for a tunnel linking Jajarkot and Jumla is set to begin soon. One has to walk around 10 hours uphill to reach Jumla from Jajarkot. The tunnel will reduce the journey to a mere 30 mins once the tunnel construction is completed[4]
