| Chepang Hill Trekking |
|
 This is newly developed Trekking trail. This area is about 80 km from kathmandu. Chitwan Chepang Hills Trail is unique because of one of the most ethnic cultures of Nepal- Chepang Culture. Chepangs, believed to be influenced by Tamangs, speak their own distinct language,l eading a nomadic life and their primary lifestyle, hunting, foraging for wild roots and fishing and traditional farming near jungles.
