Hiking experience from Shivapuri to Nagi Gumba to Baghdwar

About this experience

Shivapuri-Baghdwar trek is the best short, easy and memorable trek from Kathmandu that is as equally scenic and rewarding as any other treks in the Himalayan foothills. This starting point for this trek is Budanilkhanta, the base of Shivapri Hill. You will be picked from Hotel and drive till the national park entrance. The trail climbs past Nagi monastery through the forest to Baghdwar with shrines and hermitages. From there another 40 mints climb takes us to the Shivapuri hill top with panoramic view of Ganesh Himal, Jugal Himal and Manaslu Range. Shivapuri hiking will take about 8 hrs and we will climb about 900 m in the rim of Kathmandu.
