Devghat is located about six kilometers away from the hustle and bustle of Narayangadh. It is marked by the confluence of the rivers Trishuli and Kali Gandaki, two tributaries of the holy river Ganges. The village is accessible through a suspension footbridge over the Trishuli river. Once on the other side, you can explore the religious town wandering through the stony lanes through a maze of local shops that sell everything from local groceries to other religious items. Best way to discover Devghat is set aside a day and wander these lanes that take you higher up the hill and to the various ashrams and schools that are found scattered throughout the village. Devghat essentially has three concentric rings of settlements, the inner most is often considered the heart of the religious hub while the outer two slowly disperse in density as you go outside are mostly residential units. There are several places of interests within the core area such as the famous Sita Cave and other local landmarks.
