Kathmandu Day Hiking - Namo Buddha (Stupa) to Dhulilkhel Village in Nepal

The Kathmandu Valley rim is one of the finest places to enjoy day trekking in all of Nepal. Located so near Kathmandu, it is well above the noise of the Valley as the spectacular Himalayas come into view. The Sacred Alpine Day Trek takes you from one of the three most holy Buddhist sites at Namobuddha and covers a wonderful walk to the magnificent city of Dhulikhel. Situated on the top of a hill facing the Himalayas, its views are impeccable to behold. The journey begins early as you are taken by private car to Namobuddha to see the place where the pre-incarnation of Lord Buddha offered his arm (and his life) to a hungry tigress to save her young.
