The Chepe rises on the southern slope of the Manaslu massif in the Himalayas at an altitude of about 3500 m . The Chepe flows in a predominantly south-southwest direction along the district boundary of Lamjung (in the west) and Gorkha (in the east). It finally flows into the Marsyangdi at Chepe Ghat . The Chepe has a length of approx. 40 km. Its catchment area borders on that of the Dordi in the west and that of the Daraudi in the east , both also tributaries of the Marsyangdi.
