“The King of the Hills” – A Scenic Wilderness Escape Near Kathmandu
Bethanchowk, popularly known as the “King of the Hills,” is a hidden gem in Kavre district, located about 50–60 km southeast of Kathmandu. Rising to 3,000 m (9,842 ft), this majestic ridge offers 360° Himalayan panoramas, untouched wilderness, and spiritual depth with the Narayanthan Temple at its summit. Locals revere the site, especially during Falgun Purnima (full moon festival) when a traditional fair is held.
This short yet rewarding overnight camping adventure is perfect for those seeking a peaceful escape close to Kathmandu — with sunsets above the clouds, starry skies, and sunrises over Himalayan giants.
