Bethanchowk, located on the southern hills of Kavrepalanchowk, is the highest peak in the Mahabharat range. It is located at an altitude of 3000m above sea level and offers stunning views of the mountains and surrounding landscapes. From Bethanchowk you can also see some parts of Janakpur and Makwanpur.
From Bethanchowk hilltop you can view Tibetan peaks in the North and Indian plains in the South. However, this whole mountain is renowned as Bethanchowk Naryanthan, named after a small temple, Narayanthan. Every year during Fagu Purnima, the place is crowded with devotees.
The peak is famously known as Narayanthan rather than Bethanchowk. Locals also refer to it as the King of the Hills. The best time to visit is Mangsir according to the locals. We also offer short trekking around Bethanchowk that is enjoyable.
