Devghat
Nepal Travel Destination
Found at the confluence of the Kali Gandaki and Trisuli rivers, sits the popular Hindu pilgrimage site of Devghat. This holy place of worship is just north of the jungle safari destination of Chitwan National Park.
In the month of January, devotees gather here during the Makar Sankranti festival, and take cleansing baths in the rivers. There are a number of sacred temples and historical sites near Devghat. You can visit these places by making a side trip to the Triveni temple and Balmiki Ashram where the great sage Balmiki had his retreat. The Someswar Kalika temple and fort or the Pandavanagar is where the protagonists of the Mahabharat once lived. You can also find the Kabilaspur fort that was built by the old kings of Palpa from Tansen.
To get to Devghat, there are buses that shuttle between Narayanghat and Devghat. The bus ride usually takes around 30 minutes and is followed by a pleasant hour-long walk along the riverside path through the woods.

Testimonials
We came to Nepal with nothing but a guidebook. We left with memories of an experience that changed our lives forever. Avia Tours & Travels is simply the BEST. They understood our concerns, our time frame and made coming to Nepal so easy! We saw everything and more than we hoped for all for a lot less than we expected to pay. The ultralight flight was priceless!
Thank You Avia Tours!

Simply OUTSTANDING!!! I wouldn't think twice about whom to use if planning another trip to Nepal. Avia Tours provided a truly memorable program that others simply didn't offer. Our trip went smooth, and the time we had in Nepal wouldn't be the same without them.

What to say? Thanks for being human! Two e-mails and an airplane flight is all it took to have a truly custom program developed specifically for us and our intrests; not some stamped out product.. Just a great service at a great price.
Thank You!!!
