Chepang Hills Trek - Siraichuli (3 Days / 2 Nights)

(Where Culture Meets Purpose) Embark on a 3-day journey through the stunning Chepang Hill Trek, where adventure, culture, and purpose come together. Located just 80 km from Kathmandu in the Mahabharat Range, this trail is a hidden gem north of Chitwan National Park. It offers a rare chance to explore the traditional lifestyle of the Chepang people, an indigenous group known for their close connection with nature and semi-nomadic way of life.

Mountain Biking in the Chepang Hills

The journey begins at Sapana Village Lodge - a mountain biking adventure into the wild Chepang Hills. We drive to Shaktikhor, then climb toward Upper Dang Gadi, Chitwan’s highest peak, where nature and culture collide. After tea at Mayatar, the ride begins - through scenic trails and breathtaking views. Lunch in the hills, then it’s your call: ride back by jeep or chase the wind all the way home.

Chepang Hills Hiking and Waterfall Experience

Mountain Safari - Chepang Hill Trek

This is not only about trekking. It’s about seeing, feeling, meeting, and truly experiencing the way of life in a remote part of Nepal - where the Chepang people live with quiet dignity and an unbreakable bond with nature. When you are curious and open-hearted, this journey becomes so much more than a trail through the hills - it becomes a story you carry with you. You can also do this trek with sportive children aged ten and up. It can become a life-changing experience for the whole family.

I met Judit and Herman from Holland, when I was 19; I shared my dream with them. I was delighted to receive encouragement from them and they helped me to initiate my own small business financially. Then with my own concept, I ran Hotel Riverside for four years before I started Sapana Village in 2005. It has always been my dream to make life better for the people in my community and I believe that when you have a dream, it can come true. Sapana means dream in Nepali and by founding Sapana Village and sharing the profit with my community I made my own dream come true.
