Kathmandu & Himalayas Panoramic Hike

Summary

In the early morning, after breakfast, our team will pick you up and drive to Pharping village (on the way to the Dakshinkali temple). On the way we pass by two important historical towns: Kirtipur and Chovar which we will visit later. On reaching Pharping village, we start our stunning walk towards the Champa Devi Hill along the way of Pine forest.

Then we visit Chilamcho stupa, traditional homes of Newar communities, Bagh Bhairab Temple, Uma Maheshwar, Shri Kirti Bihar and finally going for traditional restaurants which provides us a delicious and healthy Newari lunch at Kirtipur. Afterwards we return to Thamel.
