After breakfast at your hotel, we will drive you to the trek starting point at Sundarjial on the outskirts of the Kathmandu Valley. Sundarijal is one of the entry points of Nagarjun-Shivapuri National Park. The area is rich in water resources. We walk on the well-maintained stone trail often criss-crossed by jeep tracks. The trail is completely in the wilderness beyond Mulkharka village. Chisapani is a beautiful village situated on a ridge top. The village is a meeting point of three districts Kathmandu, Nuwakot and Sindhupalchowk and offers superb mountain views.
We resume our walk after breakfast. Chisapani offers you views of green hills and snow-capped mountains far in the horizon. The trail passes through the beautiful countryside offering you an insight into the daily life of local people. Meet farmers toiling in the field, children going to school and elderies taking a siesta. The trail is easy initially but requires an uphill climb in the latter half of the day. Upon arrival in Nagarkot, check into your hotel. Nagarkot is a popular hill station in the outskirts of the Kathmandu Valley. Enjoy the view of the setting sun.
On the final day, we wake up early and hike to the Nagarkot View Tower to witness a breathtaking sunrise over the Himalayas. After enjoying the panoramic views, we return to the hotel for breakfast and some relaxation. Later, we begin a scenic downhill walk towards Changunarayan Temple, the oldest temple in Nepal, dedicated to Lord Vishnu.
