Changu Narayan Hiking offers the intensive pleasure hiking and walking to the oldest temple pagoda-style Hindu temple Chnagunarayan Temple with glorious views of Himalayas.
Situated some 22km east from Kathmandu valley, Changu Narayan is a pagoda-style Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu in his incarnation as Narayan and is one of the oldest temples in Nepal.
There are few options for a hike to Changu Narayana. One can either start the hike form Sankhu or Telkot, each of which involve few good hours hike through the scenic village with the Himalayan panorama in the background.
For Sankhu route, it is a 40 minutes drive from Kathmandu and then a mild hike through the beautiful hills, wilderness areas and traditional rural villages with pristine rivers to the Changu Narayanhilltopp where the temple is situated. Or alternatively, we can drive to Telkot (45mins) and then start the hike to the temple through beautiful scenery with many Himalayan peaks forming the background.

To get the most from your trek, and to stay safe, it is important to follow acclimatization guidelines. At Makalu Adventure, whenever possible, we follow the acclimatization formula set out by Drs Jim Duff and Peter Gormly; experts in Wilderness Medicine. "Above 2000m, altitude illness is a possibility and above 2500m it becomes common".
"As a rough guide, above 2500m the maximum daily height gain between sleeping altitudes should not exceed 400m, with a rest day every third day or after every 1000m of sleeping ascent".
"Avoid overexertion and breathlessness while acclimatizing, stay well hydrated, avoid alcohol, excess caffeine, salt and protein, your diet should be 70% carbohydrate above 3500m".

Hello my name is Georges Abou Rjeili from Canada and I just completed summitting Everest with Makalu Adventure. Overall it's a great company and I would recommend it for everyone. Thank you
My name is Gabriella Nicola Nel, I just submitted Mount Everest with Makalu Adventure. It was an incredible experience; we did have some hiccups in terms of getting frostbite on the way down from the summit and I'd just like to thank Mohan and the Makalu Adventure team for organizing a long long rescue from Camp 3 which is extremely difficult and I believe that the company saved my life with a successful Summit. As well for the season which was a very dangerous season I'd just like to thank everyone from Makalu Adventure.
I climbed of Mount Everest with Makalu Adventure. We got to Camp three on Everest and the quality of the Sherpas in helping was excellent and the quality of the food in both base and advanced base camp was very good.
