Chitlang Hiking Overview
Chitlang is a small paradise about 22 km south of Kathmandu valley. Picturesque beauty of Chitlang offers peaceful day in the nature and wonderful landscape. Chitlang Day Hiking has become a popular day trip for those who are in Kathmandu. You can do this trip as a day tour or an overnight trip staying in Chitlang.
Hike to Chitlang village offers a pleasant nature walking experience that exceeds your imagination. To start the hike, we arrange pick up from your hotel and drive you to Thankot, the point to start the trek. It is better to have a light breakfast before starting and pack a day lunch. The hiking is steep uphill on the first half upto Chandragiri and later it descends all the way to Chitlang.
The stunning sceneries of lush forest, Kathmandu valley and the Himalayas in the north takes your breath away. Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture the charming views. There are various meadows to graze the cattle around the village. Different temples with artistic creation, pagoda roofs and unique craftsmanship offer fascinating charm.
You have to be pretty fast to grab the spectacular places in a day trip, but a couple of days will be superb. The local people and their lifestyle are remarkable. Then you can hike to Indrasarovar if you want to return to Kathmandu on the same day. It is the largest man made lake that serves as the reservoir to generate hydroelectricity.
Mountain Delights Treks and Expedition arranges numerous day tours and hiking packages around the Kathmandu valley and Chitlang hiking is one of them. We recommend you an overnight stay in Chitlang. For more details, please feel free to contact us.

My partner and I booked a 4-day Annapurna trek through Mountain Delight's Thamel office, and the whole experience was excellent. The booking process was personal and flexible. We got a detailed day-by-day itinerary upfront, there was no issue when our friends cancelled last minute, and the team arranged a same-day reschedule when I got sick on our first day in Pokhara.<br>The trek itself (Tikkedunga → Ulleri → Ghorepani → Poon Hill) was stunning, and our guide Geli Sherpa went above and beyond throughout. When we decided to change our return route on day 4, he reorganized the plan and all the bookings on the spot without missing a beat. Our porter Nabaraj Dhaunya was steady and reliable the whole way too.<br>Highly recommend Mountain Delight for trekking in the Annapurna region, and ask for Geli if you can.

We had a wonderful 5-day trek to Tilicho Lake with Mountain Delights. What impressed me most was how smoothly everything was arranged. Transportation, accommodation, and daily planning were all taken care of. It allowed us to simply enjoy the mountains and the experience.

An unforgettable trek with breathtaking views throughout the journey. Our guide was patient, experienced, and always had a smile on his face. The final hike to Tilicho Lake was challenging but incredibly rewarding. I would happily travel with Mountain Delights again in the future.

Everything about this trek was fantastic. The booking process was easy, communication was clear, and the arrangements were professional from start to finish. The scenery around Tilicho Lake is hard to describe; it has to be seen in person. Definitely one of the best trekking experiences I’ve had.

Had an amazing time on the 5-day Tilicho Lake Trek with Mountain Delights Treks and Expedition. The whole trip was organized really well, and everything went according to plan. Tilicho Lake was even more beautiful than the photos. The mountains, landscapes, and villages along the trail made this trek unforgettable.

Exceptional time in Kathmandu
Oct 2023 • Couples
Thanks to Mr.Sandip Simkhada and his team from Mountain Delights Treks & Expedition, we had a wonderful and exceptional time in Kathmandu.
Our highly professional tour guide Mr.Jayaram with Mr.Narayan as driver get us to all the amazing and beautiful places in and around Kathmandu full of history, culture and tradition.
Unforgettable impressions we had when we watch the sunrise at Nargakot to see the peaks of the Himalayan Range emerging in the sun.
Also amazing was the paragliding experiance, soaring like an eagle above the Chandragiri Hill with full view on the Himalayan and landing at Chitlang Resort.
Thanks to the flexibility and good organization of Mr.Sandip we were also able to play a nice round of Golf at the Gokarna Forest Resort Golf course.
Unfortunately our time in this amazing country was limited, but we are sure to return in the next possibility.

Balthali Overnight Trek
Jun 2018 • Friends
Awesome trek. Starts with a visit to the Buddhist Monastery at Nomabuddha, where you can meditate and enjoy some lemon tea. Next, you hike up to Balthali. You can opt for a long or short version. We did long both days, and it was only about 3 hrs each day. We got some really awesome views, and the hike the second day was my favorite because you go through all of these small hillside towns through rice terraces and corn fields. Jaya is a great guide. He is very knowledgeable and flexible. Would recommend to anyone looking for a short weekend trip outside Kathmandu!

Exceptional support and a pleasure to work with
I cannot recommend Mountain Delights Tracks and Expeditions highly enough. When I suddenly needed to change flight tickets and struggled to find accommodation in Kathmandu, Caramal and the team stepped in immediately. Always responsive, always helpful, and always calm and solution-oriented – even in a stressful situation. Their dedication, reliability and genuinely friendly approach made a huge difference for me. It was truly a pleasure to work with them, and I felt supported every step of the way. An outstanding company with people who really care.

Fantastic adventure and Well organized
Me and my husband had a fantastic trekking tour to Everest Base Camp (EBC) from Lukla and back with mountain delight trek. The guide Tilak was very helpfull and kind and full of positive energy and we enjoyed his trekking all the way. Also the porter was very helpfull and kind. We experienced the shepard culture and the shepards are so polite and they have a great hospitality. The Nature is so besutifull and the mountains are amazing. We Saw EBC on a sunny day and I could imagine the trekking to the summit of Everest.
It was an adventure I Will remember for the rest of my life. I will recommand this firm to do the trekkings in himalaya as you can trust this experienced firm 100 pct.

We used Mountain Delight Treks to trek Everest Base Camp
We used Mountain Delight Treks to arrange a 14 day tour to Mount Everest Base Camp and around. Mountain Delight Treks is a very professional company and they know their business to the smallest detail. As part of their business they lend out important gear as sleeping bags, very warm down jackets and more to make the trek as comfortable as possible. And it is all quality gear.
Furthermore, the company’s owner, Ram, is overseeing everything and following all treks on a daily basis. It is clear that Ram and Mountain Delight Treks are doing their outmost to give their clients the best possible experience.
It is also important to mention our guide Tilak. He really did his outmost to make the trek as great an experience as possible. He was up early, worked late and was constantly explaining what we saw and passed on our way. It was also his initiative to change the route back due to a heavy snowfall. We could not continue along the planed route. Instead he arranged visits to several small villages “off route”. This was in itself a very interesting part of the journey. We met so many kind local people and got some very unique experience.

Trekking in Langtang Valley
Would highly recommend Mountain Delights. We had an amazing time trekking in the Langtang Valley. Our guide, Dipak Nepal, did a fantastic job and made everything run smoothly throughout the trek. We didn’t have to worry about anything. Our two porters were also incredible. We would love to go trekking with Mountain Delights again in the future!

Poon Hill and ABC trek
I can really recommend Mountain Delights. We did a 9-day trek to Poon Hill and ABC and the whole experience was great.
Right from the start, Ram was super helpful in the office, giving us clear info and a lot of time to help figure out what trek suited us best. Our guide, Geli Sherpa, was a great guy, very professional but also shared so much about his culture and even joined in on our card games in the evening. Our porter, Peam Sherpa, did an amazing job and we were so glad to have him with us.
The best part was Geli’s expertise. He noticed the weather was shifting and suggested we reach base camp a day early. That easy change gave us "crazy good" weather and an amazing sunrise and sunset. Even when our flight to Pokhara was 3 hours late due to weather, they handled everything so smoothly that we never felt stressed.
The whole trip felt very personal and safe. I’m already looking forward to my next adventure with them!
