Nagarkot sunrise tours are one of the most popular short escapes from Kathmandu, suitable for travelers who want to admire panoramic Himalayan views, peaceful landscapes, and beautiful sunrise scenes. The 1 night / 2 days package offers a relaxed getaway with a comfortable stay on the ridge of Nagarkot, famous for its outlook over the Langtang range, Ganesh Himal, Dorje Lakpa, and even Mt. Everest on clear days.
Day 1: Kathmandu to Nagarkot (drive 1.5–2 hrs)
Your tour will start with a scenic drive from Kathmandu
towards Nagarkot, passing green hills, terraced farms, and local villages.
Arriving here, you will check into your hotel and have lunch with stunning
mountain views. The afternoon is free at leisure, exploring nearby walking
trails or visiting the Nagarkot View Tower for spectacular vistas. Later in the
afternoon, drive to a beautiful spot to catch the sunset over the mountains
turning into gold. Overnight at a hotel in Nagarkot.
Day 2: Sunrise View – Return to Kathmandu
Early morning, walk or drive to the viewpoint for the
highlight of the tour: sunrise over the Himalayas. As the snow-capped peaks are
touched by the first rays of the sun, the whole skyline dramatically lights up.
After you have enjoyed this magnificent view, proceed back to your hotel for
breakfast. Later, checkout and drive back to Kathmandu. Optional stops on the
way include Bhaktapur Durbar Square or Changu Narayan Temple.
