Overview
Are you in search of a day hike destination around Kathmandu valley and still in dilemma about where to pack up your bags? Well, do not worry! We offer you the most pleasant and beautiful Nagarkot day hike. Nagarkot is possibly the best place to have a short hike around Kathmandu Valley. It is about 32 km away from the Eastern side of Kathmandu city. One day Nagarkot hike offers superb mountain views along with the taste of Newari culture in Sankhu.
Sankhu is a historical Newari town located in the northeastern part of Kathmandu Valley about 17 km far away. It offers a panoramic nature trail walk with wonderful views of the exalted Himalayan range along with elevated views of nature. The ultra-fresh Himalayas air and crystal-like shining snow-covered Himalayas sight are the plus points of this hiking trail. It is said that this town was a separate kingdom before the Malla Dynasty in Nepal. Nagarkot Day Hiking through this trail can be beneficial to adventure seekers mostly as the path passes through the green forest covered with blossoming flowers, steep hills, and a lofty nature view. Following this trail, we will again reach Bajrayogini (Khadgayogini) where you will get a good chance to observe historic Durbar Square (Layaku). Then after we will head towards our actual destination passing through local cultural villages. After walking for about 3-4 hours we will reach at end of our journey i.e. Nagarkot.
Reaching this place at approx. 2,175 meters you will spot a stupendous sunset view behind the majestic mountain. From the view tower, you can grasp spectacular views of different peaks such as Annapurna, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Langtang, Jugal, Rolwaling range, etc. which can surely leave you with incredible premonition. After witnessing an amusing view from the hilltop of Nagarkot you can rest for a while then our vehicle will pick up you and drop you at your hotel safely.
Overall your hike to Nagarkot will leave you with an awe-inspiring occurrence. However, if you have some extra days for this hike, you can see our 3 days Chisapani Nagarkot trek.
