Nyasem Khola-A Hydroelectric Project is located in Jugal Rural Municipality of Sindhupalchowk District, Province No. 3, Nepal. The site is located about 65 km northeast of Kathmandu and about 37 km north of Balephi Bazaar located along Araniko Highway.
Nyasem Khola is a major snow fed river and a major tributary of the Balephi River. Nyasem Khola originates from the southern flank of Phurbachyochu Himal, Kharane Pahad, and Bhairabkunda and the surrounding areas. Nyasem Khola meets Balephi Khola at a place called Nimatol, which is very close to the proposed powerhouse site for this project in the vicinity of Ambakharka Village. The project site lies between latitudes of 28000′58″ and 28002′05” North and between longitudes 85050′30″ and 85051′40″ East. The proposed headworks site is located about 10 km upstream from the confluence of Nyasem Khola and Balephi Khola. The powerhouse has been proposed to be located on the right bank of Lampokhari Khola about 5 km upstream from the confluence of Nyasem Khola and Lampokhari Khola.
Upper Nyasem Khola-A Hydroelectric Project is a run-of-river project and does not have a motorable access road at present. The nearest roadhead to this project is a gravel road at the Bolde Bazaar which is located at a distance of about 30 km from Balephi Bazaar located along Araniko Highway, which itself is located about 72 km from Kathmandu
