Achham district, a part of Seti zone, is one of the seventy-five districts of Nepal, a landlocked country of South Asia. The district, with Mangalsen as its district headquarters, covers an area of 1,680 sq km and has a population (2001) of 231,285.

Mangalsen, the district headquarters, is eight hours walk from Sanfebagar - a town in Achham sporting a domestic airport. A seasonal road exists from Sanfebagar to Mangalsen but is often closed during monsoon season. A bridge is under construction across Budhi Ganga river in Sanfebagar which will allow vehicles to cross the river during high-flood season.
