Overview
Leave the busy tumult of Kathmandu behind for a fun hike to Nagarkot, one of the most in-demand hill stations located close to the capital. The Himalayas and the Kathmandu Valley view itself find a day that doesn't boast nature, culture, or serenity all in one. Approved Holidays guarantee that they have well-trained professional tour guides who will ensure smooth and safe trips to unforgettable hiking destinations through lush prime forests, quaint Nepali villages, and panoramic viewpoints.
Nagarkot, only 32 kilometers east of Kathmandu, is an alluring hill station endowed with fresh air and scenic views. It is too hard to find a place to relax far from the city's hustle and bustle. At an elevation of 2,195 meters (7,201 ft), visitors are rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Himalayan range, with an occasional sightseeing opportunity of the mighty Mount Everest. The scenic splendor of the place is meant for those in search of tranquillity among natural beauty to bask in the awe-inspiring sunrise and sunset views, verdant vista, and soothing ambiance that beckons relaxation and exploration.
Itinerary
Your journey begins with a drive to the starting point of the Nagarkot trek, where you begin the trek. En route, get lost in picture-perfect rural landscapes and small villages ideal for observing what Nepalese daily life looks like outside the city.
Hiking Nagarkot
The hike to Nagarkot will commence from a certain distance. The way to the top climbs well marked; you will be embraced by dense pine forests with terraced fields and small charming local villages. The guide will share various stories regarding the rich history of the area, local customs, and flora and fauna found there.
A gradual rise of the trail makes for ample resting points to admire the surrounding beauty. The hike is not too taxing, but it surely pays off, as every little effort is rewarded with some scenic views. Just as you climb to the top, what pays for all the effort is the superb view of the Himalayas, some being Mount Everest, Langtang, and Ganesh Himal.
Lunch with a Panoramic View
Having conquered Nagarkot, you are granted a moment to either grasp fresh air flow from room to room or a tasteful lunch in a local guesthouse or restaurant with breathtaking views from that place over the hills and valleys around you. Great time for soaking in the beauty of the surroundings.
Exploration under Nagarkot
Take a mini-break in the town of Nagarkot after lunch; it's just famous for these sun and moon-sighting opportunities upon the great Himalayas. Stroll through the peaceful village, talk with friendly locals, and take a few more snaps of the pristine landscape. With some luck, catch a glimpse of the flying birds and maybe monkeys as well.
Return Hike and Drive Back to Kathmandu
After a decent stay at Nagarkot, the next point is a hike down retracing steps towards the starting point. The descent reveals equally breathtaking scenery from the valley and city of Kathmandu. The last stage will be driven back to Kathmandu, thus bringing the adventure day to an end.
