This circuit through Nepal is excellent especially for those who do not plan any more demanding trekking, but would still like to walk at least a little and enjoy the views of both the world's highest mountain, Mount Everest, and the Annapuren ridge. At the same time, they got acquainted with the historical monuments in the country and enjoyed the beautiful Nepalese nature.

1st to 2nd day

Kathmandu and surroundings

In the first days, you will get acquainted with Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Patan and other historical attractions in the Kathmandu Basin. The inspection of the entire basin will take approximately five days, so it is ideal to divide it into two parts. The first after arrival and the second part before departure. So at least the sights will not „tire you“.
