Trip Overview
Chitlang is an ancient Newari settlement located 22 km southwest of Kathmandu Valley. This picturesque village is surrounded by lush green forests that are home to over one hundred and sixty species of birds and animals. The expansive green fields and a large peach garden with more than a thousand peach trees add to the charm of Chitlang.
A stay in Chitlang offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture and traditions of this historic community. The home stay program, managed by the local community, allows you to stay in local homes with clean beds and enjoy meals with the host families. This arrangement operates on a rotational basis, ensuring that multiple families benefit from the tourism.
One of the highlights of Chitlang is the goat farm, where you can learn about local farming practices and perhaps even participate in some activities. The climate in Chitlang is pleasant year-round, with warm days and cool nights, making it an ideal destination for any season.
Whether you are exploring the peach gardens, enjoying the serene natural surroundings, or engaging with the local community, Chitlang Homestay trek promises a memorable and enriching experience.
This is a daily departure tour.

Trip Reviews
Chitlang homestay trek is truly a nature trek which takes us to the typical village near from Kathmandu. We group of 12 members started the trek from Kathmandu to Chitlang and Markhu through Pharping. We lived in typical village, ate local food and interacted with the villagers along with trek. Really a good program to experience Nepal in short period. Thank you Trekking Team Group, we are proud that we chose you among 30 agencies to organize our suitable program.

Additional Information
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the destinations on this site are in remote, underdeveloped areas where unpredictability is the norm. Despite careful planning and organization, our adventure trips can’t be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places we visit lack the emergency health and safety services you’re used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is often uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotel standards may not match those of the West.
If you’re not prepared for this, you shouldn’t travel with us. The unpredictability also means that our itineraries are statements of intent, not contractual obligations. Factors such as weather, transport difficulties, and political instability might require us to change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any necessary changes after consulting with the group. Such changes are rarely significant, and we always do our best to minimize their impact. However, we cannot be held responsible for changes or delays, regardless of their cause.
