Trek to Namo Buddha

After a lazy morning with a late breakfast amidst stunning views, you will head to Namo Buddha, one of the most sacred Tibetan Buddhist sites in Nepal. Today’s walk will be around three hours. Lunch will be served picnic-style along the trail.

You will arrive at Namo Buddha Resort around mid-afternoon. You can just relax and later head to the lookout point close by for a view of the stunning sunset. The resort is a sustainable, eco-friendly place that is famous for its excellent food—all organic and grown on-site. Day-trippers come from Kathmandu just for the food!

Trek to Balthali

After a delicious breakfast with a panoramic view, take a short walk downhill to the famous Namo Buddha Stupa. Although it’s small, it is extremely important to Tibetan Buddhists as it commemorates Siddhartha Gautam’s act of offering his body to a hungry tigress, which is said to have contributed to his ability to achieve enlightenment and, ultimately, Buddha-hood. A short walk above the stupa is the newly built Tibetan Buddhist monastery perched on the hilltop.

From here, continue walking through fields and orchards to the quiet village of Balthali, with a picnic lunch along the way. Here again, there are amazing views of the mountains, farmland, and villages.

Trek to Panauti, drive to Kathmandu

After one last breakfast with this spectacular view, start the trek to Panauti. Most of today’s trail is along a dirt road passing beautiful small villages and terraced fields. Finish at the Newar town of Panauti where you can explore before or after a delicious local lunch, depending on how quickly you trekked down from Balthali.

Panauti is one of the best-preserved Newari towns in the country and has been spared any earthquake damage over the years because of the popular belief that it is built upon a single, large rock. The town is built in the signature Newar style, with pink brick and carved wooden temples beside the river. After exploring, give your feet a rest by hopping into a car for the drive back to Kathmandu.

En route, stop at Bhaktapur, one of the three ancient cities within the Kathmandu Valley.
After touring Bhaktapur, continue to Kathmandu and check into your hotel.
