Kalinchowk is a major Hindu pilgrimage site in Dolakha, best known for its winter snow. By helicopter, the journey is a morning trip that crosses Bhaktapur, Banepa and Dhulikhel and follows the Sunkoshi and Tamakoshi valleys.
The landing at the temple is brief but sufficient for worship, and Gaurishankar and other snow peaks rise in the distance.
