Chandragiri Tour Overview
Chandragiri is a beautiful hill station located just outside Kathmandu, offering a perfect escape from the busy city life. The hill is known for its stunning views of the Himalayas and the surrounding landscape. It’s a great place to relax, enjoy nature, and take in the fresh air.
Getting There
To reach Chandragiri, you can take a cable car ride from the bottom of the hill to the top. The ride itself is an adventure, as it takes you high up the mountain. You will pass through lush green forests and get a great view of the valley below. The cable car ride lasts about 10 to 15 minutes, and during that time, you can look around and enjoy the beauty of the nature surrounding you.
When you reach the top of Chandragiri, you will be amazed by the views. On clear days, you can see the entire Kathmandu Valley and even the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas. The most famous view is of Mount Everest, which you can spot from the top on a clear day. The sight is absolutely breathtaking and makes the trip worthwhile.

The area is peaceful and quiet, which makes it perfect for a short walk or simply sitting and enjoying the view. The cool breeze and beautiful scenery make it a relaxing place to spend time with family or friends.
There is also a small temple at the top of Chandragiri, dedicated to Lord Bhaleshwar. People come here to pray and enjoy the calm atmosphere. You can visit the temple, light a lamp, and feel the spiritual energy of the place.
If you like to take photos, Chandragiri is a perfect place for that too. The views of the mountains, forests, and valley are amazing, and you can take some great pictures. It’s a wonderful place to capture the beauty of Nepal’s nature.
Food and Relaxation

After enjoying a nice meal, you can take some time to relax and soak in the beauty around you.
