Key highlights of the Champadevi day hike

Itinerary

  1. Champadevi is situated at an altitude of 2278 meters south - west of Kathmandu and is a pilgrimage site having a Buddhist stupa and Hindu shrines. This factor brings in many pilgrims who visit this place on a full moon day. After breakfast at the hotel, we drive 16 kilometers for about an hour to a place called Pharping (on the way to Dakshinkali Temple) with packed lunch boxes. From Pharping we start our hike, gradually going up for about half an hour along the trails toward the north ridge and through pine forested areas. From here, we continue hiking gradually up, following the trails for about another (3) three hours to Champadevi. It is also known as Vegetarian goddess. The view of central and western Himalayan Ranges are magnificent from here and after lunch, we continue to hike down to Hattiban for about (2) two hours where we can see from a bird’s eye view - the Kathmandu valley, Langtang and Ganesh mountain range. The day hike of Champadevi can be combined with monastery visit at Pharping or Bungamati and Khokana cultural trip at extra cost. We will drive back to Kathmandu later in the evening. Total about 6 to 8 hours trip.

We traveled with EarthBound Expedition to Mt.Kailash and Manasarover. The entire 2 weeks journey was very well organized thanks to Rajanji and our guides Arjun and Bharat.Had a very satisfying and fulfilling journey, the kitchen staff executed their duties like clock work.The guides took great care of us through out the trip and paid each of us personal attention. We could not have completed this journey without their help.I would like to plan more trips with Earthbound to Maachu Pichu and other destinations.
