What To Expect
Nagarkot
Nagarkot is the closest and the most beautiful Himalayan view point from Kathmandu. The 2,100 m hilltop offers a view of a wide range of the Himalayas. A day trip in the lush countryside unveils village lifestyle and countryside landscape view. A short walk is the best way to spend time in nature and learn about the local plants, birds and Tamang culture.
Nagarkot Panoramic Hiking Trail
A gradual downhill walk along the mountain ridge passes through the Tamang villages, farming terraces, temples and monasteries. The trail overlooks the sprawling Kathmandu valley with snow peaks towards the north. It passes through the courtyards of Tamang people and allows you to have a close look into their daily chores. Many of them make rice wine in their backyard. They grow all kinds of vegetables in their garden. Tamang follow shamanism mixed with Buddhism. They are believed to have migrated from Tibet 1000 years ago.
