3 Day Nagarkot Trek

The Nagarkot trek was an amazing experience! The hike took me through beautiful landscapes, charming villages, and peaceful forests, with breathtaking views along the way. Reaching Nagarkot and witnessing the sunrise over the Himalayas was truly unforgettable. The trail was enjoyable, not too difficult, and a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. A great choice for anyone looking to experience Nepal’s natural beauty without an intense trek. Highly recommended!

As well as taking us to a great viewpoint of the Himalayas in Nargakot, he took us around the historic city of Bhaktapur which we really enjoyed!! We can highly recommend this tour company and the guide, Ram!! 😊
