Where does the trek to Chisapani/Nagarkot start and end?

The Chisapani Nagarkot Trekking, which offers a richness of culture, tradition, and natural diversity, starts from the small settlement of Sundarijal, located in the northeast of Kathmandu and famous for its quaint environment, natural beauty, home to a hydropower plant, and a popular picnic spot for locals. Through the stone stairs, trekkers then head up into the Shivapuri National Park and trek through dense forest with rhododendrons and varieties of other flora, watersheds and waterfalls, river dams and river banks, and occasional small settlements. Afterwards, we reach the beautiful Chisapani Village. The village with an inhabitation of Gurung, Brahmin, and Sherpa communities has mind-blowing sunsets and sunrises over the panoramic Himalayas (from Dhaulagiri in the west to Mount Everest and Kanchenjunga in the far east) overlooking the beautiful valleys and high hills.

As trekkers move from Chisapani, the journey continues towards Nagarkot. Nagarkot offers the splendid view of sunrise as well as Mt. Everest's. This hill station provides the spectacular view of Ganesh Himal (7,422 m/24,350 ft), Langtang (7,205 m/23,638 ft), Langtang Lirung (7,234 m/23,734 ft), Gaurishankar (7,134 m/23,406 ft), Dorje Lakpa (6,966 m/22,854 ft), and many more. Thus enabling adventure enthusiasts to have a quick escape from the bustling capital.

The hilly landscapes and terraced fields add a serene beauty to the trek. The Chisapani-Nagarkot trekking is also a gateway to the Langtang Gosaikunda trek and the Helambu trek.

Similarly, the trail of the Chisapani Nagarkot Trek from Chisapani to Nagarkot is gradual and easy through small settlements, tea shops, and lush landscapes. Further on the trail, explore the diverse landscape, interesting villages, and welcoming locals before reaching the temple listed in the UNESCO World Heritage Site List and one of the oldest temples in Nepal, the sacred Changunarayan Temple.

Do some prayers and walk around the premise, receive blessings from the gurus, and spend a time of relaxation in the Changunarayan temple. Visitors can spend time photographing the architectural grandeur, which showcases the intricate wood and stone carvings. As the exploration of the holy Changunarayan completes, return back to the Kathmandu Valley after this enriching, insightful, and entertaining trek.

Essential Information

Best Season for Chisapani Nagarkot Trekking

Most months of the year are suitable for trekking towards Chisapani and Nagarkot, except during the monsoon season, which lasts from mid-June to early September, and the winter season, which typically spans from mid-December to February.

The best time for a Chisapani-Nagarkot trekking adventure is during the spring season, from March to May, and autumn, which lasts from September to November.

During the spring period, most days are clear, with occasional light rain and snow in the late afternoon. While mornings and nights can be cold, the landscape is incredibly scenic, adorned with seasonal wildflowers, including tall trees to bush, rhododendrons, magnolias, and other vibrant blooms. Days are marked by clear skies, offering grand views of the snow-capped peaks, and the longer daylight hours in spring make it an ideal time to embark on this journey.

The next best season is autumn/fall to pre-winter, spanning from the middle of September to early December. Although mornings and evenings can be much colder during this time, and there are shorter daylight hours due to the approaching winter, most days are bright and clear, allowing for excellent mountain views and enjoyable walks. Occasionally, higher elevations may experience some snowfall.

Accommodation options in Chisapani Nagarkot Trekking

The place to relax and spend the night matters while individuals are visiting the Chisapani and Nagarkot areas. The choices for accommodation are found to have a mental effect after a tiring long day's walk. So, keeping that in mind, Trekking Planner Nepal has always kept accommodation options as a top priority. We only choose the best places with all the necessary amenities to provide the best service for our visitors despite the trekking season or trekking region.

In the Chisapani Nagarkot trek, the accommodation has various options that mainly depend on the budget. This means the options range from cheap teahouses if trekkers are on a budget to more expensive lodges or guesthouses. A brief description of the housing facilities is provided below:

Teahouses are the best option for those wishing to visit Chisapani on a budget. They provide basic bed and blanket facilities and are considered cheap. Do not expect electric blankets; however, a typical teahouse room has two single beds. The bathrooms in the teahouses are shared and located outside the room. Hot showers can be found, which mainly cost extra. Similarly, bucket showers, solar showers, and gas geyser showers are the options to choose from.

  • Lodge: These are more developed and expensive shelters than teahouses. Visitors can find double beds or single beds according to their needs. The rooms are warm and cozy, an incredible relaxation option in high altitudes. The best thing about the private lodges is that the bathroom is attached to every room.
  • Guesthouse: These are another excellent option for medium-range budgets. They provide comfortable rooms, which are well equipped with good amenities. The guesthouse offers attached bathroom facilities with hot shower options. If individuals spend extra, they can also pay for the heating system. However, the guesthouse itself provides warm and cozy rooms. Showers are either solar or gas geezers, which are also attached to the rooms.
  • Hotels and resorts: They are the best option for luxury travelers. They contain high-standard rooms with exclusive facilities. The room can be chosen according to the number of people, and these locations have a wonderful ambiance. The bathrooms are attached with hot shower facilities, all included in the room's price. This is why they are considered an expensive accommodation option in Chisapani.

Charging, Internet, and communication facilities during the Chisapani-Nagarkot Trekking

These are some of the most crucial prerequisites for any travel. Electricity, the Internet, and communication have become integral to a journey. Whether posting on social media, researching the area, or contacting loved ones, they are necessary. Thus, here is a brief scenario of the Nagarkot trek.

  • Charging: Most of the Chisapani Nagarkot region is well facilitated with electricity. Charging ports can be found in the accommodation place, while the cost of charging can vary according to the options. This means that only some service providers will charge for electricity. However, some may, and some may not. Similarly, individuals can find charging ports in their rooms. Still, sometimes, they are limited only to the hotel lobby, depending upon the place of shelter. So, it is recommended to carry extra batteries, power banks, or solar chargers to omit the limitation of electricity or charging.
  • Internet: Internet facilities are available in Chisapani and Nagarkot. Visitors can get a chance to use Wi-Fi in the accommodation places or any nearby prominent village. If individuals stay in teahouses, they need to pay extra to use the internet facilities. At the same time, the cost of Wi-Fi is mainly included in more expensive accommodation options. The connection might be optional to more substantial houses or higher altitudes. For those who wish to reduce the cost of Wi-Fi, it is advisable to take cellular data packs during the trekking period.
  • Communication: Communication networks work fine on the Chisapani-Nagarkot route. However, the web can be unstable at higher altitudes or in some sections, including forests or hilly terrains. Nepal Trekking Planner provides each of our valuable guests with a Nepalese SIM card with data packs that can be used during their stay in Nepal. Similarly, the SIM card is free, enabling them to use communication and internet facilities on a budget.
