Kathmandu Valley trek takes you along the rims of the Kathmandu Valley offering distant views of snowy mountains, and an idea of typical Nepali countryside life and ethnic culture. It is best suited for those who are traveling with children, and enjoy outdoor camping but who do not have enough time for longer treks into the high mountains. We drive to a trailhead at Sundarijal and gradually hike uphill to Mulkharka (1768m). On the second day, we walk along the valley rims with great views of mountains, then get to Chisapani (2194m) from where some superb views of the Himalayas and sunrise/sunset views can be observed. The next day we make our camp at Chauki. Likewise, the next day we trek along the way to Nagarkot(2020m), the best vantage point for mountains and sunrise views.

We did the Annapurnas sunrise + 2 days in Pokhara. The Annapurna sunrise was fantastic. The views are spectacular. Our guide, Amar Maga, recommended we change the initial itinerary and it was the best idea. We did a very beautiful trek with a fantastic accomplishment, Amar (guide) and Dawa (porter). 100% recommendable (trip + Amar + Dawa)

Memorable trip to Nepal
Just returned from one of the best trips of my life visiting the beautiful country of Nepal with a group of friends.Nepalese seem to be one of the most friendly and trustworthy people .Visited Kathmandu and then a tour to Pokhara ,trekking up to Pun hill to have a grand vista of Annapurna range. The guide, Amar was very supportive and friendly, and looked after all of us well. We had to change our trekking plans he was quite accommodative and got everything sorted out for us and did his best to make sure we had the best possible experience both culturally and in trekking. Safari at Chirwaan and we were lucky enough to have a glimpse of Bengali Tiger and a bear, and quite a few Rhinos. Now back home with memories to treasure for a life time.
