Fikuri Hill Trekking is one of the recently discovered trails situated Northern of Kathmandu Valley. Fikuri Hill is not a common destination for tourists who come to Nepal from all over the world with very few numbers of people trekking in this area. This trekking trail is absolutely perfect for those who are keen to visit off the beaten trails and be close with nature without experiencing many people to interrupt you. During the trek, one will be able to witness extraordinary views of the mighty Himalayas including Langtang Lirung (7,234m), Ganesh Himal (7,422), Manaslu (8,163m) along with many other peaks. This region is inhabited by the Tamang Community and once we begin to hike on the trail we will be able to experience the unique culture, tradition and lifestyle of people living in this region.
Fikuri Hill trekking starts from Bhalche, a village approximately 5 to 6 hours drive from Kathmandu Valley. The trail then gradually climbs up in altitude through different types of flora and fauna along with unique and untouched landscapes in the direction of Gonga Bhanjyang. The path then ascends towards Singla (4,100m) and finally reaches Fikuri Hill (3,800m) where the white giants tower in front of us to welcome us with a pleasant view of the Himalayas. Fikuri Hill experiences a maximum number of internal tourists during Ekadashi (the eleventh day of lunar calendar). We then head towards Betrawati via Mangegaun.
