A day hiking from Kathmandu: Phulchowki Hill

Embark on a breathtaking hike up Phulchowki Dada, Nepal's highest hill, through lush forests with vibrant flora and fauna, culminating in stunning panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley.
Your adventure begins in the early morning as you set out from the base of Phulchowki Dada. The initial path winds through charming villages and terraced fields, offering a glimpse of local life. As you ascend, the trail leads into dense, verdant forests teeming with diverse flora and fauna. The air is filled with the songs of birds, and if you’re lucky, you might spot colorful butterflies and rare bird species like the spiny babbler.

Further up, the forest opens up to reveal spectacular vistas. Take a moment to catch your breath and admire the sweeping views of the Kathmandu Valley below. As you continue climbing, the vegetation changes, and you’ll encounter rhododendron trees, especially stunning in spring when they are in full bloom.

At the summit, standing at 2,762 meters, you are rewarded with panoramic views of the Himalayas, including peaks like Langtang and Gaurishankar on clear days. The serene beauty and tranquility at the top are perfect for reflection and photography. Enjoy a well-deserved rest, perhaps with a picnic, as you soak in the stunning surroundings.

The descent offers a different perspective, allowing you to appreciate the changing light and shadows over the landscape. By the end of the hike, you will have experienced the natural beauty, rich biodiversity, and cultural tapestry of this magnificent region.
