The Chisapani Nagarkot Hike offers a gentle alternative to more rigorous treks, providing a peaceful retreat into the tranquil hills surrounding the Kathmandu Valley. This journey takes you through some of the most beautiful destinations near the valley, allowing you to enjoy stunning natural landscapes and pleasant trails that offer an escape from the busy city life. It’s the perfect short hike for those looking to experience the serene beauty of hilly Nepal. The hike begins with a day tour from Kathmandu, leading to Chisapani through the scenic Shivapuri National Park, a region rich in wildlife and natural beauty. After spending the night in Chisapani, the journey continues along forested trails to Nagarkot, a popular destination known for its stunning sunrise views. Nagarkot’s view tower offers a panoramic 360-degree view, where, on clear days, you can see the Himalayas stretching from Everest in the east to Annapurna in the west. After soaking in the incredible views from Nagarkot, the trek descends toward Dhulikhel, a charming town with beautiful viewpoints and occasional glimpses of the snowy peaks of the Himalayas on the horizon. The hike concludes in Dhulikhel, after which you will return to Kathmandu. For those interested, additional excursions to famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu can be arranged. The Kathmandu Chisapani Nagarkot Hike is designed for relaxation, ensuring that you can fully appreciate the journey without feeling rushed.
