Chisapani-Nagarkot is a short and easy 3-day hiking trail for beginners to explore around Kathmandu valley of Nepal with the stunning view of the Himalayas is one of the most popular short trek destinations around Kathmandu, located just 12 kilometers north of the main city.

This trek is very popular among people of all age groups and for those who prefer to trek in Nepal but are worried about time limitations; this will be the best option. As Nagarkot hike is also known as Shivapuri and Sundarijal hike, it is a diverse trekking trail that helps us to reach different trekking destinations and is also the gateway and exists point of Gosainkunda, Langtang, Helambu, and Melamchi trek which is a week-long trek in the Himalayas.

Passing through the dense forest of Shivapuri National Park and Tamang villages mixed with culture and nature, we will be able to encounter different flora and fauna and also a marijuana plantation that exists just close to the capital city of Nepal.

The trail is easy compared to another short trek of Nepal but is diverse in terms of the view of nature and different ethnic settlements. The trail passes through Shivapuri National Park of Nepal, which is one of the very famous watershed areas and the main resources of drinking water supply to Kathmandu valley. The park lies between the temperate and subtropical climatic zone, rich in flora and fauna.

Shivapuri National Park is a protected area, so different army checkpoints do exist to maintain its conservation project. It is also one of the religious heritage areas for both Hindu and Buddhist followers, as different hermitages from different periods of time came here for meditation, and among them ‘SHIVAPURI BABA’ is one of them. Above all this conservation area is the source of the Bagmati and Bisnumati rivers of Nepal, a highly sacred rivers.

Furthermore, different subtropical hardwood, pine, oak, rhododendron, etc are grown and the park is blessed with an abundance of different species of butterflies and birds, so Shivapuri is also a popular destination for Bird Watching and in terms of wildlife sloth bear, jungle cat, monkeys, leopards, deer, etc can be seen. So to protect all these army checkpoints keeps their eyes on visitors’ records.

The trek will lead us to Nagarkot, a popular touristic destination for the sunrise and sunset view and also of the Himalayas, then will be descending towards Changunaraya, a village situated towards Bhaktapur, which is also a World Heritage Site with popular Changunarayan Temple. The trek program ends by driving from Changunarayan towards the medieval city of Bhaktapur for a day tour and finally ends with an hour's drive to Kathmandu, the main city.

Best place to assist trek

I have completed 14 14-day Annapurna trek with Discover Altitude.
I was born and raised up in a metropolitan. The materialist surroundings are around me from the day I opened my eyes. But, something was always lacking inside. Every single day, I wanted to go away from all this. Later on I explored that my inner being resided in nature i.e. mountains, Himalayan, forest, etc. Then I searched to go for a mountain expedition.

In a random search, I contacted Discover Altitude and booked the earlier mentioned trek.
Throughout the trek, the people from Discover Altitude were very cosy and friendly. Especially, Kumar sir and Basu swami were compassionate more than a human can be expected for. They behaved me not as client but as a friend whom they had known for a long. All the arrangements and the food they provided were very hygienic and according to my preference.
Thanks to the whole team of Discover Altitude.

Amazing Everest Heli tour and Chitwan Safari with Discover Altitude Treks ..

I am thrilled to share my incredible experience with Discover Altitude Trek's Everest Base Camp Helicopter tour and Chitwan Safari. Both adventures were beyond my expectations and left me with memories that will last a lifetime.
Embarking on the Everest Base Camp Helicopter tour and Chitwan Safari with them was a privilege beyond words. The helicopter tour granted breathtaking aerial views of Everest's splendor, impeccably guided by Santosh. The Chitwan Safari, a mesmerizing jungle encounter, offered close wildlife encounters and seamless accommodations. Santosh's exceptional leadership and meticulous attention to detail ensured a flawless experience. Discover Altitude Trek's unwavering commitment to excellence and the team's passionate dedication made these journeys truly extraordinary.

Solo female 8 days trek in monsoon - a bit crazy but safe and def happy. Amar and Krishna ROCK

Organizers Kumar and Santosh - are kind, accessible, responsive, attentive, helpful, and hard-working people, Amar guide and Krishna porter - were like my brothers, I’m grateful for the experience shared with these two on my 8 days hike, it had a lot of difficulties due to monsoon but in a good company all becomes an adventure, because in the end, especially in the Himalayas: no pain no gain?!

2 day private tour Kathmandu

To see and experience Kathmandu in just 2 days including a sunrise in the Himalayas and a slaughter ritual is a challenge. But with Kumar, it works in a relaxed atmosphere. He feels good where your interests lie. This makes the experience even more intense in a relaxed way.
I can recommend him.

Attractions in Kathmandu

Although my helicopter tour to the Everest base camp fell through due to unforeseen weather conditions, both Santosh and Kumar were very helpful. They not only ensured my refund for the cancellation but Santosh went the extra mile, helped us get around Kathmandu, and recommended places for us. They both possess immense knowledge not just about Nepal, but also about Bhutan and Tibet. They offer unique experiences and are passionate about what they do. I highly recommend them, whether you are looking for tips on getting by Kathmandu or planning your trek to the Everest base camp. These guys are your go-to! Responsive, transparent, and very good prices.
