Kalinchowk Darshan Limited reiterated its commitment to building Kalinchowk into a holistic tourism destination that integrates spiritual pilgrimage, eco-tourism, and cultural experiences. Located in Dolakha district of eastern Nepal, Kalinchowk is home to the revered Kalinchowk Bhagwati Temple at an altitude of 3,842 meters, a major pilgrimage site believed to fulfill devotees’ prayers.
The region also offers panoramic Himalayan views, including Mount Gaurishankar, Jugal Himal, and glimpses of Annapurna and Everest, alongside rich biodiversity within the Gaurishankar Conservation Area. The trekking route from Kuri (3,200 meters) to the temple passes through culturally diverse settlements of Sherpa, Tamang, Brahmin, and Chhetri communities, reflecting Nepal’s multicultural harmony.
Company officials emphasized that future investments will prioritize responsible infrastructure development, environmental conservation, and local economic participation, ensuring that tourism growth remains inclusive and sustainable.
As Nepal advances its global tourism recovery and diversification, Kalinchowk Darshan Limited’s integrated approach positions the destination as a promising model for faith-based, nature-centered, and community-driven tourism development.
