KATHMANDU VALLEY
PHULCHOWKI HIKING
Fishtail Tours and Travels offers Phulchowki Hike where you can climb the highest hike of Kathmandu Valley, Phulchowki which is situated at the highest point among the surrounding hills of Kathmandu Valley rims at an altitude of 2,750 meters which is one of the perfect places to see vegetation (Botanical Garden) and bird watching. The trip starts from Kathmandu by the drive to Godawari, i.e. 14 km away and 45 minutes of drive. We hike for 3 to 4 hours to the top ridge of Phulchowki, the small hill region that is recommended for its quiet surroundings, skyline views of the surrounding landscapes, and snow-capped mountain views in the distance to the far northwest. Its beauty is augmented by the presence of a botanical garden where we can observe the rich display of hundreds of different species of flowers, plants, trees, and herbs. On the top of it, we can observe the wide-angle panorama views of mountains and Mt. Everest ranges, Cho–Oyu, Gaurishanker Himal, Langtang Himal, Ganesh Himal, Mt. Manaslu to Annapurna range towards the far west. The place is rich in vegetation in spring and summer exotic flowers like rhododendrons, magnolia, orchids, and wildflowers. On return, we hike downhill for approximately 2 and a half hours and visit the garden which offers a variety of flowers, plants, and herbs.
