How to go Kalinchowk?

How to get to Kalinchok depends on your budget time and choice. Various travel companies offer packages by bus and jeep and you can also go by your own vehicle. I don't recommend small cars and low-capacity motorbikes and scooters due to bumpy roads. You can take a local bus to Charikot and take a local bus to Kuri in the morning. the local bus only leaves in the morning, you have to reserve a jeep at other times. 

• Some tips for traveling to Kalinchok
• Stay overnight in Kuri Village to avoid high altitude sickness
• Don't forget to carry warm clothes, gloves, and goggles
• As the hotel is crowded on Friday, it is better to book in advance.
• Don't wear uncomfortable clothes like high heel sandals and boots.

• Don't spend too much time coming to Kalinchok from Direct Charikot to avoid getting high-altitude sickness.

Always respect local culture and try to leave your only footprints. Manga your garbage in proper way.
