If you’re seeking a quick and enchanting way to catch a glimpse of Mount Everest from Kathmandu, our Nagarkot Day Hiking adventure is the perfect choice. Situated at an elevation of 2,195m, Nagarkot is a serene hilltop just 32km away from Kathmandu. It offers a tranquil escape with stunning mountain views and an opportunity to immerse yourself in the authentic village life of the Himalayan foothills. The Nagarkot hiking trail, though easy, promises an exhilarating experience.

The adventure begins with a scenic 1.5-hour drive from Kathmandu to Nagarkot. This option is ideal for those with limited time or who prefer a more relaxed trek instead of a high-altitude expedition. From Nagarkot, you’ll be treated to a panoramic view of the Himalayas, ranging from the majestic Dhaulagiri in the west to the iconic Mount Everest in the east. Don’t forget to bring binoculars for an enhanced view of Everest! Throughout the day, you’ll be far away from the bustling noise of Kathmandu, fully immersed in the unhurried lifestyle of the villagers.
