Start the day by leaving Kathmandu and driving towards Nagarkot. Nagarkot is about 1.5 to 2 hours away from Kathmandu. From Kathmandu, we will drive through places like Bhaktapur, where you can catch glimpses of local culture and architecture, before continuing up winding roads towards the hilltop. Along the way, the route takes you through scenic landscapes of lush green hills, terraced fields, and small villages as you ascend towards Nagarkot.
Once we have reached Nagarkot, visitors are greeted with panoramic views of the Himalayas, including peaks like Mount Everest on a clear day. There are several vintage points around Nagarkot, where you can spend time observing the landscapes and appreciating the peaceful surroundings. In the early evening, we can go for a short hike to Nagarkot Durbar or Changunarayan. After a day of exploration and relaxation, we will return to Kathmandu and spend overnight in Kathmandu.
