The Kathmandu Chisapani Nagarkot trek is one of the short and sweet trips to trek around the Kathmandu Valley. The tour is planned and designed, especially for those travelers seeking to trek around the terrains of Nepal and enjoy the beauty of nature within a very short time. The trek starts from the beautiful and evergreen place in the valley, Sundarijal which is just a few minutes drive from the capital city, Kathmandu.
Kathmandu Chisapani Nagarkot Trek Trip Introduction:
The trail pierces through Shivapuri National Park taking you through the big watersheds, rivers, and chirping sounds of beautiful birds. The trek offers you a very beautiful nature and village walk experience, a natural environment, and a stunning panoramic view of multiple mountains including, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Langtang Himal, Gaurishankhar Himal, and Mt. Everest too sometimes.
The weather around these places is mostly cool and windy. You get to enjoy the real boon of nature away from the hustle and bustle of the Kathmandu valley. Being away from the crowded valley, and hiking up to the top, you can experience a short adventurous trip through the trek. The animals and birds whispering around the places with the view of the whole valley from the top is a very rare experience.
