About this activity

Nagi Gompa is a Buddhist monastery located in the hills north of Kathmandu, Nepal. It is a popular destination for day hikes due to its beautiful scenery, cultural significance, and accessibility from the city.

The hike to Nagi Gompa starts from the town of Shivapuri and takes around 3-4 hours to complete. The trail is well-maintained and offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and forests. Along the way, hikers may encounter local villagers and wildlife such as monkeys and deer.

Once you arrive at Nagi Gompa, you can explore the monastery and its surrounding grounds. The monastery is home to a community of nuns and offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu. Visitors can learn about Tibetan Buddhism and participate in meditation sessions.

After visiting the monastery, hikers can either return to Shivapuri or continue on to other nearby attractions such as the village of Kapan or the Buddhist stupa at Boudhanath.
