Chisapani

Chisapani (2,160 m) is a 5 to 6-hour uphill hike from Kathmandu. A 45-minute drive from Thamel to Sundarijal and a hike via the beautiful village of Mulkharka, Chisapani is one of the nearest and best Kathmandu Valley Trekking routes. The village also offers the best views of the Annapurna, Everest, Manaslu, and Ganesh Himal ranges, as well as a closer look at the Langtang range. Also, it’s connected to Nagarkot as a second-day itinerary of the Kathmandu Valley Hiking.

How to Reach Chisapani from Kathmandu?

Every 10 minutes, a local bus departs from Ratnapark for Sundarijal. If you choose the local bus option, it is roughly a 45-minute drive and a 5-6-hour hike up to Chisapani via Mulkharka. However, during the dry season, 4×4 pickup trucks and local jeeps can also drive up to Chisapani. But it’s only used for the transportation of food and other goods necessary for daily needs. For convenience, you can drive to Sundarijal in a private car or a private jeep if you are in a group.

Born and raised in Gorkha, Nepal, I am proud to call the Manaslu region my home! I have been in the travel business for over a decade from being assistance guide, leader, to being a manager. And finally today I am the founder of NEST Adventure. So you could say I know my way well enough in the Himalayas, especially in some of the off-the-beaten-trails in Nepal like Manaslu, Kanchenjunga and Mustang! I am passionate about travelling and I strongly believe that seeing the world shouldn't break the bank (at least not too much!). I have backpacked to over 15 countries in Asia, Central America, USA, Canada, one-third of Europe, the Caribbean Islands, and Latin America. I studied in the UK and moved to the United States. During that period, I had the opportunity of working with multinational companies which taught me how to deliver quality customer service in the business. As a world travelling backpacker myself, and travel expert for the Nepalese Himalayas, I started writing about my own country. Which I would love to share with you. In case you required free information about Nepal or join a group with our existing departure, (particularly If you are a solo hiker for the restricted area) please do not hesitate to visit my office in Thamel. We are located in the centre of Kathmandu called Thamel. I am happy to share a cup of Nepali tea and free information. Our team at NEST has earned 5/5 star ratings on TripAdvisor. Don't forget to visit our customer feedback page on TripAdvisor. If you believe our expert team can be helpful in planning your next trip to Nepal, then please do not hesitate to contact me at nestadventure@gmail.com. I am also available 24x7 on WhatsApp  +977- 9851052042. If you are interested to know more about my travel journey follow me on  Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
