Kalinchowk is also known as Kalinchowk Bhagwati & is dedicated to a Hindu Goddess Kali, an incarnation of goddess Durga. This Bhagwati Temple falls under Gaurishankar Conservation Area and is located at an altitude of 3842m above sea level in the Dolakha district of the Bagmati Province of Nepal.

The place is best known for trekking, snow activities, skiing, & one of the Hindu goddess temples. 

The best time to visit Kalinchowk is during the spring season in Nepal which falls in December, January, and February (mainly Paush and Magh in Nepali months). During this time of the month, one can have the benefit of snowfalls in Kalinchowk. Kalinchowk is regarded as one of the best nearest destinations from Kathmandu to enjoy snowfall at the height of 3600 m from sea level. That is why the Kalinchowk tour package from Kathmandu is mostly preferred by Nepalese travelers.

Kalinchowk tour package is one of the most preferred tour packages in Nepal among the locals. The two main reasons behind people visiting Kalinchowk are the snowfall in the spring & the religious beliefs of Hindu people towards the Bhagwati temple. Devotee believes that the goddess Kali fulfills the prayers wish of those who offer her something in return as a Vakkal in this religious place. There is a small holy water pond at the top of the Kalinchowk temple. Devotees believe that taking a dip in the holy pond makes your soul pure to worship the Goddess Kali.

Newly married couples also prefer the Kalinchowk tour as their honeymoon destination to live their life's best moments with great enjoyment of snowfall along with the beauty of Kuri village.
