Kalinchowk Cable Car

A cable car from the village of Kuri to the Kalinchowk Bhagwati Temple (3,842 m), a pilgrimage site with views from Gaurishankar to Langtang, saving the steep climb on foot. In winter the hill is often covered in snow.

Kuri is a 6–7 hour drive from Kathmandu, so the cable car is usually booked as part of an overnight trip, or combined with the Kalinchowk hike (HK-20). Warm clothing is needed at the top.
