About This Tour

Chandragiri Hills offers one of the most spectacular panoramic views of the Himalayas accessible from Kathmandu — a cable car ride from the valley floor to 2,551m, where on a clear day you can see from Everest in the east to Dhaulagiri in the west, with the entire Langtang and Ganesh Himal ranges in between. Eight of the world’s fourteen 8,000m peaks are visible from the viewpoint.

The summit area includes the historic Bhaleshwar Mahadev Temple and forest walking trails through rhododendron and pine. This is the easiest way to see the Himalayan panorama from Kathmandu without trekking — ideal for travellers short on time or those who want mountain views without mountain effort.
