Phulchoki is the highest hill surrounding Kathmandu valley with an altitude of 2750m from Sea level. This is one of the beautiful hiking in terms of vegetation in Kathmandu valley. After breakfast at the hotel, we drive 14kms for about 45mnutes to place called Godavari (Botanical Garden) with packed lunch Boxes. From the Godavari, we start our hiking gradually uphill all the way through sub-tropical thick forest for about hours. The magnificent view from the eastern part of Annapurna range to Gaurishanker in the east can be seen from here on a clear day apart from the breathtaking view of Kathmandu valley. After lunch and strolling around from sometime, we hike down following the same trail to the Godavari for about 6 Hours.
