Itinerary
Morning:
Begin the day with a drive towards the Chandragiri Cable Car station. It takes about 30 minutes for our journey from Kathmandu to this station. After taking tickets, we board the cable car for an exciting ride up to the hilltop. To the summit, you can explore Bhaleshwar Mahadev Temple and enjoy the natural view over there.
Midday:
Have lunch at one of the hilltop restaurants where you will take part in having some traditional Nepali meals surrounded by nature. Then, there are numerous hiking trails to explore and outdoor activities such as ziplining or mountain biking can even be done.
Afternoon:
A good ambiance is then followed up with going back down by cable car to the base point. It is an entire day trip in a way that would usually last between 3 to 4 hours; that is, a really easy and fun excursion.

Best Time to Visit Chandragiri Hills
The months from September to May are regarded as the perfect time to visit the Chandragiri Hills because of their being dry months. The weather is usually excellent, with clear skies for mountain viewing. Do not think of going there during the monsoon that is, June to August, as heavy rains may obscure views and make trails slippery.

Why Opt for the Chandragiri Hills Day Tour
Marvelous Views of the Himalayan Range
Chandragiri Hill is one of the most scenic spots overlooking the rest of the Himalayas: Ganesh Himal, Manaslu, Langtang, and even Everest on clear days. The hilltop provides a complete circle of view around the Kathmandu Valley and makes snow-capped peaks an absolute pleasure for the photographer.
Heavenly Scenery from a Great Cable Car Ride
Chandragiri Cable Car takes you from the Base Station to the Hilltop within only 10-12 minutes, covering an area of about 2.5 km. The Journey is incredible while flying over Kathmandu Valley, lush forests, and surrounding mountains. This is a vital part of our day tour.
Bhaleshwar Mahadev Temple
This Bhaleshwar Mahadev temple is ancient as well as a revered temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. It gives both spiritual solace and panoramic valley and peak views. This is the earliest temple in this region and is then of cultural and spiritual importance. Not only does this person find peace while enjoying these views, but also enjoys views across the entire range.
Outdoor Adventure & Hiking
Another thrilling activity aside from taking the cable car can include mountain biking, ziplining, or even a good hiking escapade. As a hill, it also has some short-hike trails that prove to be quite worth it for adventure lovers.
Dining with View
Scrumptious local meals and snacks are available in the restaurants and cafes that are stationed at the top of Chandragiri Hill. The ambiance is awesome because these eateries with impressive views serve myriad Nepali items.
How to Reach Chandragiri Hills
The Chandragiri cable car station is found at a distance of roughly fourteen kilometers southwest of Kathmandu from Thankot. You can reach that by your private vehicle, taxi, or tour package, including transportation. The ride on the cable car takes ten to twelve minutes through the beautiful panoramic scenery of Kathmandu Valley and the surrounding mountains.
Public Holidays and Special Tours:
Weekends and public holidays are great times for the Chandragiri Hills to have local and foreign visitors to see views and enjoy activities. This is where the Chandragiri runs its cable car from 7 am to 6 pm on holidays. The car helps during the peak hours.
Pre-booking is highly recommended for visitors so that they can reserve their slot for the peak hours and not waste time or suffer scarcity and shortages. Pre-booking smoothens the experience and maximizes the time at Chandragiri Hills.
Prior Knowledge Before You Travel
Comfortable Dress: Wear comfortable and rugged shoes, especially when planning to hike or participate in outdoor activities such as mountain biking. The surfaces can be rugged, so make sure you are prepared for some adventure.
Leave baggage light: Although the majority of the travel will be by cable car, take the very few things with you. Mainly take articles like a camera for those great photographs, sunscreen for protection against the sun, and a jacket in case of cool temperatures at the summit.
Be Prepared: If it happens to fall on a public holiday or a weekend, expect great crowds, and as a result, would do well to book the tour ahead of time to avoid sore waiting queues or, worse, unavailability, especially at peak times.
