Kakani Day Hiking or Kakani Hiking is best day hike tour near Kathmandu. If you are thinking about a hike around Kathmandu then this might be the best route for you. Kakani village is just 26-27 KM from Kathmandu. The road is under construction so it is quite dusty to go there but during the drive, you will see the different trout farm. Driving to Kakani itself an amazing experience to see the landscape and beautiful hills. Once you just get the Kakani, Kaule you will encounter with magnificent and gigantic Langtang Range very clearly. The journey does not finish yet, you need to drive further 10 minutes to get the Kakani where you can see farmers have planted the strawberry crops.
Kakani day hiking is known as a Kakani to Gurjebhanjyang hiking which is 3 hours easy walk through the beautiful forest together with mesmerizing views of Langtang Himalayan range. The walking is so quiet as there is nothing you can meet on the way. Down from the trail, you would see the amazing views of the valley and green field. After hiking for 2.30 minutes you will arrive at Suryachaur which is also a very famous viewpoint near Kathmandu. Nowadays you can see people paragliding here. You can also do the paragliding here but you need to inform us ahead. Panoramic view of Himalayas is absolutely incredible from here. We do pack lunch here with the view of Himalayas. See the Kakani Hiking map by google for an idea

There are 2 Kakani hiking routes that you can do from Kakani. They both start at Kakani and ends in different places. Here are both routes short pieces of information of both of them.
This one is a very scenic and beautiful hike through the jungle with the beautiful views of the Langtang Himalayan range and the hiking is also pretty easy. In the end, you will arrive at the Gurje Bhanjyang from where you will take the car to Kathmandu.
on this hiking route you can not see the mountains but you will see the view of the Kathmandu. the hike ends at Bodeshowr Kathmandu. We do not recommend you to do this route for the Hiking
The day hiking is just a single day hike, however, we recommend to the hiker to start the hike early in the morning if possible. The best time to start the hike is around the 7:00 clock as it takes 2 hours to reach the Kakani it might be 9 o clocks. As the day get’s older the Himalayas also becomes cloudy so we better to reach Kakani as early as possible. You can take plenty of time there in Kakani and we can start hiking. The first part of hiking is quite tough as the trails climb the bit higher until the checkpoint. Then the trail is easier and more enjoyable. We stop at Suryachaur for the packed lunch or whatever we have. It is nice to spend a few moments here.
