Overview
Nagarkot sits on the eastern rim of the Kathmandu Valley at 2,175m — just 32km from Thamel — and on clear mornings offers one of Nepal’s most panoramic Himalayan views, encompassing eight mountain ranges from Dhaulagiri in the west to Kanchenjunga in the east, including Mount Everest. This 2-day package drives you up in the afternoon, stays overnight at a mountain resort with valley views, then wakes for sunrise before trekking 4 hours down through terraced farmland to the medieval city of Bhaktapur.
