If you are looking for an adventurous hike away from the city, Kalinchowk hike would be the right choice for you. The hike from Charikot to Kuri village, the gateway to Kalinchowk temple, would take you about 7 to 8 hours depending on your hiking strength. You could get a local bus from Kathmandu to Charikot (about 150 km) and then start your hike the same day or take a rest an start the next day. Starting with a steep walk up the rocky hill, it can be draining if you are not much of a hiker. But you don’t want to hike across the green luscious forest, you could get a private vehicle that runs all the way from Charikot to Kuri.
