Day 1: Kathmandu - Sundarijal - Chisapani
Your journey begins from Kathmandu with a short (approx. 1 hour) drive to Sundarijal, a popular picnic spot rich in greenery and water bodies. After hiking from this point for about 5 hours through Shivapuri Watershed and Wildlife Reserve, you will arrive at the next destination, Chisapani (2300m).
Day 2: Chisapani - Nagarkot
Yet another refreshing hike through a forest (3 hrs) and then a village (3-4 hrs) will take you to Nagarkot (2,175m), a hill-station popular equally among domestic and international tourists for the eye-catching views it offers. You will love to see the sunset, have a delicious dinner and a good night's rest in your hotel room.
Day 3: Nagarkot - Changunarayan - Bhaktapur - Kathmandu
Wake up early in the morning to see the spell-binding sunrise and mountain range right on the horizon, if permitted by the weather. Make sure to carry your camera along or you will regret later to have missed so much. Your final hike routes through Changunaryan and Bhaktapur, both recognised as UNESCO's World Heritage sites, where well preserved medieval architecutre and lifestyle of Newari ethnicity can be observed. Finally, you will be driven back to Kathmandu, where the trip ends.
Meet Rajendra Prasad Sapkota and Outdoor Himalayan Treks, your local connection in Kathmandu. Starting as a young porter, Rajendra has all the local knowledge that will make your trip to Kathmandu life changing. With us, visitors experience remote villages, meet local people, and gain insight into our culture. We support local villages, and have even built a local orphanage to house and educate displaced, and often outcast, children. We hope to bring you a journey that will be enriching, but will also help those in need in Kathmandu.
