"Magnificent Travels through Nepal & Tibet"

Brilliant day hike in Kathmandu

We spent the very best full day with Dawa, Pema and Traveltimes Treks! We recommend them wholeheartedly to you! Their knowledge, care and enthusiasm is just fantastic. We hiked Shivapuri Peak, 2732m, in Shivapuri NP, a challenging climb with magnificent views. Before the hike we visited a shrine of the sleeping Buddha and on the hike visited a monastery school, a water shrine to Shiva and had masala tea with the enigmatic holy Baba! The flora and fauna were beautiful and varied, with many birds and monkeys at the lower levels. We loved the enormous oak trees and the scented orange blossom plants. Dawa provided delicious sandwiches and fresh bananas that we ate overlooking the majestic views from Shivapuri. We will always remember this special hike. Thank you so much Dawa and Pema!
