Chisapani to Nagarkot Panoramic View Trekking from Kathmandu, Nepal

Nagarkot Nature Trail - An Incredible Short Trek in Nepal
The journey from Shivapuri to Chisapani to Changu Narayan spans 3 days, offering breathtaking scenery and cultural experiences with stunning sunrises and sunsets near Kathmandu.

Nepal is renowned for its spectacular treks. However, if you believe that experiencing the majestic beauty of the Himalayas requires a trek lasting two weeks or more, reconsider. The Ideal Short Trek in Nepal spans just three remarkable days, showcasing snowcapped peaks and the hidden culture of the Himalayas.
The trek begins just north of Kathmandu in Shivapuri National Park, a hidden treasure in the Himalayas that marks the northern boundary of the Kathmandu Valley. The park is home to bears, leopards, deer, and more. Traverse the lush hills before entering the jungle. As you ascend, the snowcapped peaks to the north will captivate you with their stunning beauty. The first day concludes with an overnight stay at Chisapani, a traditional starting point for treks in the past. Enjoy delightful guest houses and delicious food as you rest for the night.
The following day, trek along the northern edge of Shivapuri National Park, enjoying mountain views throughout the journey. Follow the northern rim of the Kathmandu Valley eastward to reach the summit of Nagarkot Hill, the perfect spot to witness magnificent Himalayan sunrises and sunsets. Nagarkot offers excellent hotels with a diverse range of cuisines. Watch the sun set over the snowcapped peaks before retiring for the night.
In the morning, rise early to witness the sunrise over the Himalayas. From the top of Nagarkot, you can see four of the 8000+ meter massifs, including Mt. Everest on clear days. From there, embark on your final day’s trek to the ancient village of Changu Narayan. This village is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in its entirety. At its highest point stands the oldest Hindu temple in the Kathmandu Valley, dating back over 800 years. Observe traditional Newari craftsmen working in wood and stone as they have for centuries. Today’s trek is about half a day, offering views of both the snowcapped peaks and the beautiful green Kathmandu Valley below.
