Champadevi Day Hike is a perfect destination to escape from a busy city like Kathmandu for a day and also enjoy the Hike. If you have a day off and want to experience day hiking in Nepal, Blossom Expeditions arranges the day hike on any day of your choice. Champadevi Day Hike is a pleasant and easy day hike in the southwestern part of the Kathmandu Valley. At an altitude of 2180 meters above sea level, the Champadevi shrine is a popular pilgrimage site among both Hindu and Buddhist communities. Hiking through the lush green forest on a well-developed trail is a truly wonderful experience of hiking in Nepal.
The actual Champadevi day hike begins from near Pharping after an hour’s drive from Kathmandu. From there we hike continuously uphill all the way to Champadevi about 3-4 hours through the lush green forest. As we get higher the view is spectacular. We see great numbers of Himalayan peaks including the Annapurna range, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Langtang, Jugal Himal range, and on a clear day, Mt. Everest and the surrounding valley. Champadevi is a small Hindu deity shrine. At certain times, quite a number of Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims go there to worship. After enjoying the view and rest, we walk down to the road and drive back to Kathmandu.
