The capital city of Nepal, Kathmandu Valley, is an oval bowl surrounded by forested hills with terraced agriculture. Legend says the valley was once a big lake until the Bodhisattva Manjushree raised his wisdom sword to slice a passage through the valley walls, draining the water and creating the first settlements. Over the years, Kathmandu has historically served as a pivotal hub on a longstanding trade route that linked the Indian subcontinent with the Tibetan Autonomous Region and China.

The trail plunges into the tranquillity of dense jungle environments, providing opportunities to encounter rare and endemic species of wildlife and a vibrant array of avian life. Along the way, discover the rich cultural tapestry of the valley, with visits to ancient temples and serene Gompas that reflect the spiritual heritage of the region. This trek is more than just a physical endeavour; it's an exploration of the natural beauty, cultural richness, and rural life that define the Kathmandu Valley.
