You will be picked up from your hotel in the morning and taken on a drive to Sundarijal. From here, we start our hike through the Shivapuri watershed and wildlife reserve to Chisapani coming across the first settlement on the way at Mulkharka inhabited mostly by Tamangs. Then heading down the ridge through oak and rhododendron forests we arrive at Chisapani where we will stay at guesthouse for the night.
In the morning, we have our breakfast and set off on our hike to Nagarkot. As we walk for two and half hours, we come across a place called Chauki Bhanjyang from where we continue on our trail to Nagarkot. One of the most popular destinations, Nagarkot is famous for the mesmerizing sites of sunrise and sunset. On a clear day, we can see the Himalayan range stretching from Dhaulagiri in the west to Everest in the middle to Kanchenjunga in the east. This view of the Himalayan range takes your breath away. In the evening, we will witness the awe-inspiring view of sunset.
We start our morning with the charismatic view of the first rays of the sun falling on the majestic Himalayan range. As we return back to our hotel, we are served hot breakfast to fulfill the need of our hungry tummy. Once our tummy is satisfied, we set on our hike to Changunarayan Temple, one of the most famous and oldest temples of Lord Vishnu in Kathmandu valley. From here, we will be taken back to Kathmandu marking the end of our three days hike.
Myself and my wife took a 4 day trek with Arjun from Bharat Adventure. I can't recommend the company highly enough. It was our first visit to Nepal and our first trek. We were immediately comfortable with him and the plan. At once he made us feel special and part of the journey for him, not just 'another western tourist couple'. We worked hard too! For him I think it was easy.... Sadly my wife picked up a bug and need to be 'rescued' by motorbike, Arjun handle this perfectly and made her feel that it was all going to be OK, which thankfully it was. This episode showed him for what he is. A kind caring, genuine young man. I would only use his services again, if I manage to get back to Nepal. Please, if you plan to trek, use his company.
