Kathmandu Valley Hiking Tour
The Kathmandu Valley has many enjoyable day hikes or mini- treks that offer the rewards if wandering further afield serenity, an introduction to Nepalese hill life and dramatic mountain views. A Schneider valley map is helpful for navigating the trails and hills that ring the perimeter of the valley. A guide can be valuable where trails evaporate or multiply, and you may consider porters if you want to hike without gear on your back.
Nagarkot
Nagarkot is a good place to begin several days or a longer hiking. Clings to a 1985metere hilltop, far removed from nois and traffic pollution. A one – hour drive up the winding road from bhaktapur greets the fresh hill breezes and valley views east and west, eclipsed by one of the best close- range Himalayan vantage points from anywhere on the Kathmandu Valley. From Annapurna to Everest, the peaks seem no more than a days’s walk away. This sport is popular for mountain views particularly at sunrise and sunset. We can see among the 30 mountains above 6000m , Manaslu , Annapurna, Ganesh Himal and Langtang Lirung.
Kakani
Kakani is one of the most popular Mountain View at a height of 2073 meters (6801ft). An old retreat of the British envoys to Nepal since the mid 19th century, a delightful Raj style cottage at Kakni still belongs to successive British ambassadors to Nepal. Taragaon Resort is shared by the british ambassador’s private residence and a police training academy. From the terrace of this run- down hotel, Ganesh Himal and Langtang Lirung dominant the centre stage with Annapurna II and Himal Chuli, Lenpogang ( great white peak) and Gauri Shankar in the left and right wings. This is one day hiking tour trip from Kathmandu Valley.
