★★★★★★★★★★3.3 · 3 reviews · 8 hours · from $61

Day trip from Kathmandu into Shivapuri National Park for hikes to Shivapuri Peak or Nagi Gompa, plus Bagdwar and big Himalayan views.

“Shivapuri Park is wonderful, with numerous trails tailored to the individual abilities of participants. A definite plus was the ability to pick up our group directly from the hotel. The guide tried to be very helpful, but she didn't always know how to navigate. She also talked way too much. We wanted to enjoy the park's atmosphere, but instead—inherently—we were focused on the guide's incessant chatter.”

A 3-day trek from Kathmandu to Chisapani and Nagarkot, plus Bhaktapur UNESCO sights, with forest walks, village stops, and sunrise.

“Our guide Prakash was great but unfortunately the trek was not. After hiking up the mountain through the forest we arrived in Chisapani and found that there were no mountains to see. In April the beautiful mountains of Nepal are not visible at all due to the dry season- no rain to break up the smog from surrounding cities that rises up and collects there.
