Overview

Champa Devi Day hiking is an easy and enjoyable day hike in the southern hill of Kathmandu valley. Champa Devi is in the elevation of 2,180 meters above the sea level. This is one of the most popular pilgrimage sites in the Hindu and Buddhist religions. Hence, walking through the lush pine forest on a well-developed trail is a really wonderful experience. Superb view of Langtang, Gauri Shankar, Jugal, Dorge Lakpa Himalayas are the major attraction of the hiking.

Above all, apart from it, we can observe the bustling Kathmandu city and spectacular village settlements from the top. Several return routes are possible. Aside from visiting the temples, you will get a wonderful opportunity to explore the countryside with authentic and traditional houses and local culture during the hiking. The southwestern rim of the Kathmandu Valley rears up in a prominent fishtail of twin peaks, the highest visible parts of the Chandragiri range. The eastern summit is known as Champadevi, after the resident goddess.

Champa Devi Day Hiking is as always most paradise with clear days 

Hiking to Chapadevi starts with a 16 km drive south from Kathmandu for an hour to a place called Pharping. An ancient renowned city situated in the Southern Region of Kathmandu. From here start your hike gradually uphill for about half an hour. Continue hiking for about another 3 hours gradually uphill following the trail towards Champadevi. Most of the walk is along the ridge and offers a spectacular bird’s eye view of the Kathmandu valley.

Many Nepalese hikes all the way to the top of this hill to worship the famous Champa Devi goddess especially an April (Baishakh 1) (Nepali New Year). On this day-hike, you’ll be able to hike through forests and authentic Nepalese villages where you’ll meet some of the friendly locals. Likewise, From the top, you will have an amazing view of Langtang, Gauri Shankar, Jugal, Dorje Lakpa, and other snow-capped mountains. When you are leaving, the summit trail descends steeply down to the village of Champa Devi. It goes through the dense forest which is rich with birds and other wildlife.
