Kathmandu: Nagarkot Sunrise & Changu Narayan Hike

Start with Kathmandu Valley hotel pickup to Nagarkot View Tower for sunrise and Himalayan views, weather permitting. Choose Sunrise View Only with return to Kathmandu and an English-speaking driver; Group Sunrise and Changu Narayan Hike, a mostly downhill route through villages, terraced fields and forest with a suspension bridge and English-speaking hiking guide; Private Sunrise and Changu Narayan Hike, with private vehicle, pickup/drop-off and guide; or Private Sunrise and Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Duration is 4–6 hours, depending on traffic, weather and trail conditions. A packed breakfast box with bottled water, muffin, doughnut, banana and juice is included. Club Himalaya breakfast is optional. Changu Narayan/Bhaktapur fees, tips, personal expenses and unlisted meals are excluded. Pickup time is confirmed the day before, usually 4:00–5:30 a.m. The hike is moderately easy but includes uneven downhill paths. Wear comfortable shoes; sunrise and mountain views are not guaranteed.
