Chandragiri Hills Sightseeing Day Tour

Kathmandu is a fascinating city, but many travelers miss out on the natural splendor of the surrounding valley. Enjoy pine-covered hills and sweeping, snow-capped views of the Himalayan range during this relaxing day trip to Chandragiri Hill. Hike up shady trails, grab lunch at a nearby restaurant, or lounge in the park. The tour includes tickets to a brand-new cable car for a scenic ride up the mountain.

• Swap the bustle of Kathmandu for fresh, pine-scented air and scenic hiking trails.
