Nepal is renowned for its trekking trails, but if you want to get a taste of the mountains without embarking on a multi-day trek, this is a great option. Starting from the UNESCO-listed temple town of Changu Narayan, walk through beautiful rural land that’s close to Kathmandu but so far from its busy-ness. Glimpse the mighty snow-capped Himalaya beyond the edge of the Kathmandu Valley as you walk, and enjoy a beautiful sunset from Nagarkot.
