Chandragiri: -

Chandragiri is seventeen kilometers from Thamel, Kathmandu, it lies on the southwest side of Kathmandu Valley which is 2551 meters above sea level. This hill is connected with both Buddhist and Hindu religions. The hill provides panoramic views of Tara, Kathmandu Valley, and the Himalayas ranges of Annapurna and Everest.
Day Hike to Chandragiri begins from the cable car station above Thankot. It is dramatic to walk, enjoying the views of a Cable car. Eventually, it seems you are walking in the remote countryside. You will hear the sound of birds, smell the leaves that had fallen down and walk continuously uphill. It is a bit mixed trail, some parts are fine and some are tough, but Blue Himalaya Tours excellently supports stories. The branches of trees are friends that help you take abundant snaps.  The top of the Chandragiri (8369ft.) hill is a cable car station, which is also an amazing park. You will see children playing and devotees paying their homage to the Bhaleshwor temple. The Everest, Jugal Himal, and the Langtang range can be explored. If you take a different trail while descending from Chandragiri hiking, the stone staircase and the wide and open meadows offer you a base to entertain. Chandragiri Hiking itinerary is set for the full day that offers you enough time to enjoy.

Trekking in Nepal

Nepal Trekking is the highlight of a visit to Nepal. On account of the wide range of geographical features, the country nurtures a variety of vegetation and landscape. In addition to the natural endowments is the rich Himalayan culture. Thousands of visitors trek to different parts of Nepal every year to experiment with its rustic charm of nature and culture. Most treks go through areas, between 1,000 to 3,000 meters, although some popular parts reach over 5,000 meters. Protected regions along the Himalayas, like Shy-Phoksundo National Park, Annapurna Conservation Area, Manaslu Eco-Tourism Area, Langtang National Park, Sagarmatha National Park, Makalu Barun National Park, and Annapurna Conservation Area provide excellent trekking options.

River Rafting in Nepal:

White Water Rafting is the second popular program in Nepal. We will arrange the Rafting trip according to your time and budget for one day to ten days. The river journey is not only for encountering the challenge of the torrential rapids of the Mountain Rivers but also to explore a typical cross-section of the country's natural as well as ethnocultural heritage. The northern part of Nepal is confined by the ever snowing mountains Mt. Everest, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, and numerous peaks. The melting snows of these mountains enrich Nepal the second richest country for whitewater rafting and kayaking. Any raft enthusiast who has already explored the major rivers of the world says the rivers of Nepal provide a combination of thrill, challenge, and cultural experience not found anywhere else in the world.
