Its  height is 3032m from the sea level.  It is a place with its natural beauty.  Its beauty-ness entice everyone whoever reaches there. This place gives us a feeling of a heaven. We can see blossoming rhododendron, Sunakhari, Chimal, Ghede-Chap, Chap (types of flower) all over Temke jungle. We can see beautiful panoramic view of Himalayan range, Tarai and sun rising scene. The most crucial and valuable herbs can be found in its periphery.

Around four hours of travel by bus from head quarter, our route is along Dawa, Timma Rimchim, Chinamakhu, Annapurna and Nagi 4 Kattike, Chakhewa is situated in the lap of Temke. Dhap Dada is one of the best peak in Chakhewa.  We can enjoy by lying down on the meadow of grassy land over there. There are motels in Chakhewa to stay, approximately 3 to 4 hours continuous walk from Chakhewa  to Temke we can reach to the destination.  We can enjoy the beautiful scenario of the jungle, water sound, animals, birds, flowers, Himalayan range, dense Malingo (types of bamboo) etc. It really entice the visitors in the travel of straight up way by scenery of lophophorus (Monal) and peacock, visitors never feel the fatigue of the journey all along the period of walking. When we reach the Temke's peak in the morning, we can see the view of mountain and Himalayan range and sun rising from this peak. In the peak, there are two temples one is Shiv and another one is Maheshwor. We can see Maheshwor temple inside the  rocky mountain. It is very thrilled by its rocky slope and speedy of wind. In the top of this peak, there is a pond. There is a belief that long time ago in the pond's edge "there was salt around the pond and when the shepherd visited  he tasted the salt cube meanwhile the salt found around the pond vanished." We can enjoy the view of hills, mountains, Terai region and Himalayan range from the peak.


In this Temke, carnival Mela has been started twice a year, once in Mangsir Purnima and another in Chaitra Purnima. Many people gather there for offering something to God for their better lives ahead as well as to make life enjoyable and meet their relatives. From far distance,  people gather and show their magical power of Dhami Nakchhum (witch doctor). The magical power and dance of Dhami really focuses the people's mind toward them.
