Balthali Village.
Located
southeast of Kathmandu in Kavrepalanchowk district, Balthali is a perfect
weekend getaway destination for those who want to escape the city noises. It is
not as mainstream as Nagarkot or Dhulikhel. This is a good thing because you
will not be distracted by droves of visitors spoiling the tranquility of the
place offers. The
village is surrounded by visual delights of lush green terrace farms, orange
plantations, pine forests and wild flowers in full bloom. Can’t forget the
amazing view of sunrise and sunset with the hills covered by what looks like a
blanket of fog is absolutely breathtaking. The place is a breath of fresh air
for its visitors.
Balthali
is easily accessible in and around Kathmandu valley. First it’s an hour and a
half bus ride from koteshwor to Panauti. From there you can either choose the
60 minutes hike or take a private vehicle. It is recommended to take an off
road vehicle due to the road being bumpy and under construction. And if you are
seeking more thrills there is also a mountain bike trail from Lakuri Bhanjyang
to Panauti. Many resorts are located here which provides great hospitality to
its visitors.
