Bandipur Hill Station - Day Tour
Bandipur is a beautiful place to explore on foot. The narrow streets surrounded by traditional houses attract every visitor. There are many places where you can visit during the early morning or the evening at your own pace.
Tudikhel, a former parade ground, now turned into a local playground is the main attraction of Bandipur. Stroll around its edges with a breathtaking view of Gorkha villages (hilly landscape)
Martyr’s Park, Teendhara, and the botanical garden are also worth visiting in Bandipur.
Besides these places, you could explore the Raniban towards the east of primary settlement in Bandipur.
You can also find many religious places and temples around Bandipur as well. One of the most prestigious is the Khadga Devi Sanctuary. It is open once a year on the day of Fulpati during the celebration of Dashain.
Bindha Basini temple, Shrine of Lord Shiva, Narayan Temple, and Chandi Than are some of the few religious places in Bandipur.
Walking in the evening in Bandipur is outstanding. Strolling through the streets surrounded by modern cafes with balconies is an exquisite experience. The traditional houses with colorful flowers are the very definition of Bandipur. Seeing locals getting busy with their daily chores, and children playing around.
A short hike around Bandipur village:
Bandipur is rich in tradition and also rich in beautiful places around for hiking. We can offer different places to visit as a day tour. As per your interest, we can choose the places and organize to visit/tour according.
There are many short hikes around Bandipur. You can hike up to the Thani Mai temple. Only 30 minutes walk and you will reach this incredible hilltop viewpoint. The towering mountains in the distance and the Marsyangdi valley below are mesmerizing.
Day hike to Ramkot:
For a longer hike, you may walk to a traditional Magar village in Ramkot. This half-day hike takes you on a journey through cultivated lands, lush vegetation, and ancient villages. The thatched roof round houses are one of the primary attractions of this village. Although there are only a few of these houses left, they still reflect the traditional lifestyle of the locals. From the Ramkot village, you could enjoy views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Manaslu alongside the Langtang mountain ranges.
Siddha Gufa (Siddha Cave):
A small hike from the main street of Bandipur will take you to Siddha Cave. It is the largest cave in Nepal. You can visit this place while returning from Bandipur as well.
Siddha Cave is mystical and old. Strolling inside this cave with the help of a torchlight is nerve-wracking. You need to climb ladders and ropes as well. I recommend a visit to this place. A Hindu Sadhu lives deep in this cave. There is even a small pond inside this cave. This whole journey is thrilling and exciting.
