Description

Immerse yourself in the countryside of Nepal, witnessing the culture, tradition, and lifestyle of the locals. Magnificent views of Ganesh Himal, Mt. Makalu, the Langtang range, and the Annapurna range
The Suirechaur-Kakani hike is one of the easiest, shortest, and most fun hikes to be on around Kathmandu. It lies in Nuwakot district at an elevation of 2,100m. It is a newly explored hiking destination, so there aren’t many people on the trail. This makes the hike more peaceful and serene without many people around. This hike is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the countryside of Nepal, witnessing the culture, tradition, and lifestyle of the locals.

The hike has a lot to offer, from magnificent views of Ganesh Himal, Mt. Makalu, the Langtang range, and the Annapurna range to the beautiful landscapes of Kathmandu and Nuwakot valley with traditional houses, gorgeous forests, and safe exploration. You can see various kinds of birds throughout the hike, and if you are lucky, you may also encounter a few wild animals. You can see lush green hills, land terraces, and magnificent mountains in the same frame. Therefore, it is a perfect place for people who love nature and want to be soaked in its goodness.

Outline Itinerary:
To embark on the hike, we will drive from Kathmandu to Suirechaur. Leaving the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu behind, we will reach Suirechaur in a 30-minute drive. After the drive ends, the real hike begins. We will walk for 20–30 minutes to reach the hilltop, Suirechaur. Suirechaur is a big open field, perfect for sunbathing in the winter and soaking in the beautiful views of the hills and mountains around.

After relaxing in Suirechaur for some time, we will start the second part of our hike. We will hike to Kakani from here. The hike from Suirechaur to Kakani takes a maximum of 3 hours at a moderate pace of walking. The trail is well managed and very beautiful, with lush green forests and amazing mountain views. We will walk through traditional Nepali villages, small restaurants, fish farms, and strawberry farms.

After the three-hour hike, we’ll reach Kakani and enjoy the beautiful sunset. The golden hour looks amazing from the hilltop. After the beautiful day, we’ll rest for the night. (For the day hike option, you will drive back to your respective hotel from here.)

The next day, we’ll have a healthy local breakfast and drive back to Kathmandu from Kakani.
