Day Hiking. Nagarkot to Changunarayan. Afternoon drive back to Kathmandu
Changunarayan - We will get up early in the morning and take the private bus to catch a sunrise. You grow your anticipation with the crowds on the viewpoint platform. There are always a few dogs sitting on the top of the path to the viewpoint platform, patiently waiting for the sunrise. When the snowcapped mountains stand out from the dark, you will want time to stop. After breakfast in the hotel, we will check out the hotel, and start a day hike from Nagarkot to Changu Narayan, taking a downhill trail through terraced fields and passing stone houses. Enjoy the quiet Nepali countryside views and learn about local life and culture. We will drive back to Kathmandu after lunch at a local restaurant in Changu Narayan.
