Dhorpatan is a municipality in Nepal's Baglung District, 3,900 meters elevation in an east–west valley south of the Dhaulagiri mountain range in the Himalayas.

This was an historic migration route for Khas people eastward in the late Middle Ages.

There are a few homestay lodges serving basic food, tea, coffee and milk.

During the summer months large herds of livestock are taken northwards from the Rapti Zone by Kham Magar people for grazing in surrounding pastureland.

Animal husbandry, handicrafts and some tourism are the key economic activities of the people in the region.
