This day's unforgettable hike is organized out of the vibrant city of Kathmandu, ensuring its travelers have a chance to enjoy the picturesque view of this valley. The 5-hour walk goes from the peaceful hill town named Nagarkot to the culturally rich town of Dhulikhel, making this literally a nature lover's dream hike.
From here in Nagarkot, the panoramic view of the highest peak of the world, the Himalayas, can be seen.
The air is just so fresh—invigoratingly fresh from these cool mountains—that all feelings of weariness and stresses of week-long toils are chased away immediately. A little further up, the trail climbs up to a wide saddle view over the mountain ridges of terraced fields and snow-clad distant peaks. But perhaps, one of the most magical bits of this hike is witnessing the sunrise over the Himalayas from Nagarkot. It's something that's so great it can be described as almost once in a lifetime.
Making their way to Dhulikhel, one encounters some very charming villages. A rich cultural heritage is evident from those. Dhulikhel is a historic town that offers a glimpse of traditions and customs preserved for generations. It's the absolute heaven of nature lovers and bird watchers since it possesses wide varieties of flora and fauna.
The walk from Nagarkot to Dhulikhel is much more than a hike; it is an experience that reaches deep into the soul. You sum up the journey with indelible memories of natural splendor and cultural richness left in the psyche. It's just the right hike to offer seasoned hikers a good test or to anybody looking for a quick yet refreshing getaway that comes associated with beautiful views, exciting adventure, notable comfort, and a glimpse into Nepali culture.
