Pilgrimage is more than reaching the temple. Panchadham is about serving people through faith and community.
Panchadham is a spiritual and social service initiative that connects five sacred pilgrimage sites associated with Lord Shiva. Our purpose is to preserve and promote these places while serving the devotees who visit them.
Throughout the year, we support pilgrims by providing food, drinking water, medical assistance, religious offerings and other essential services at different pilgrimage sites. We also organize health camps and support devotees who follow specific religious dietary practices.
Our Seva
Gosaikunda (4,380 m above sea level)
On Janai Purnima, we distribute warm water and warm kwati to thousands of pilgrims who come to worship Lord Shiva. Together with Green City Hospital, Basundhara, we run a free health camp with oxygen support, help with altitude sickness, free medicines, medical check-ups and basic healthcare.
Uttargaya, Betrawati
Every year, people from all corners of Nepal come here for Saraddha, to honor and remember their ancestors. We serve traditional Nepali food such as puri, halwa and potato curry, along with drinking water and other food, for those who have been fasting since morning.
Dupcheshwor
We provide pure milk and Bel Patra (bilva leaves) for devotees to offer to Lord Shiva. This especially helps pilgrims who travel from far away and may find it hard to get pure milk for their offerings.
Baundeshwor
During the month of Shravan, thousands of pilgrims come to worship Lord Shiva. Many wait in line for 5–6 hours without eating, because their religious dietary restrictions do not allow salty or regular food. We provide fresh fruits and drinking water to those waiting.
Pashupatinath
We collect holy water from these sacred places and bring it to Pashupatinath Temple, where it is offered to Lord Shiva. This brings the blessings of the different pilgrimage sites together in one of the most important temples in Nepal.
Our Helping Hands
Our Vision
Our long-term vision is to establish Panchadham as a nationally and internationally recognized spiritual pilgrimage destination dedicated to Lord Shiva. We aim to connect the five sacred Dhams through a well-developed pilgrimage circuit, supported by Gurukuls, Ashrams, healthcare facilities, pilgrim services and sustainable infrastructure.
Our Plans
Through these efforts, we hope to preserve our spiritual and cultural heritage, make pilgrimage easier and more meaningful for devotees, create opportunities for local communities, and promote Nepal as a destination for spiritual and religious tourism.
Ultimately, our vision is to build a connected, accessible and spiritually enriching Panchadham pilgrimage network that serves devotees today and can be preserved for future generations.
- Promote Panchadham nationally and internationally as a sacred pilgrimage network connected to Lord Shiva.
- Promote religious and spiritual tourism by highlighting the cultural, historical and spiritual importance of Panchadham.
- Support pilgrims and local communities by developing better facilities, services and infrastructure around these sacred sites.
