Overview

Are you in Kathmandu city and bored with high buildings and the noise? And need to freshen up yourself? You don’t need to worry as we are here with a one-day hiking package to the Phulchowki Dada, which can be a solution to your boredom. Our one-day Phulchowki hike tour takes you to one of the beautiful hill stations of Kathmandu valley.

Phulchowki Dada (hill of flowers) is regarded to be the highest hill situated inside and around the Kathmandu valley, measured to about 2782 meters from the sea level about 14 km to the southeastern of Kathmandu. A hike to this Dada is an opportunity to have a short escape from the valley and find yourself in the silence, and enjoy the views this Dada is offering. The journey starts with a ride of about one hour to the Godawari and a walk for some hours. Tough the walking can be some nasty but it is worth accepting to enjoy the green vegetation, different types of the birds and the range of mountain peaks. Covered mostly with the sub-tropical forest, you can find yourself around rhododendron (some pure white and some dark red) and the oak trees. Similarly, you can enjoy hundreds of different species of flowers, plants, trees, and herbs you can see in the botanical garden. Famous to the bird watching, you can see different species of the birds throughout the journey and the list includes birds like Flycatcher, Rufous-bellied Niltava, Yellow-browed Tit, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Black-winged Cuckoo-shrike, and many more. And once you are at the apex of the Dada and if the weather is clear, you can enjoy the majestic views of Gaurishanker Himal, Langtang Himal, Ganesh Himal to Annapurna range towards the eastern part. Similarly, this Dada also has some cultural values as this Dada is a pilgrimage site for most of the Hindus. There is a temple of Phulchowki Mai at the top of the hill bordered by the prayers flag. So along with enjoying nature, you can have worshipped in the temple. Last but not least, Phulchowki Dada is the only spot where you can enjoy the snowfall during winters in and around Kathmandu city.
