Read moreCombine Nagarkot scenic panoramic trail with the Nagarkot nature trail in a two to two and a half hour circuit walk. Started at Hotel Country Villa. Followed main road north for a few hundred metres to Unkai resort. Follow the path on the left side of Unkai resort down the spur until you reach the dirt road under the high voltage electrical tower. Take a right turn and follow the track south. There is the potential for panoramic views east provided there is no smog. Visibility was poor for me. There are lots of birds to been seen along this section of the walk. When you get close to Nagarkot you will see more larger buildings. At the first fork in the road take the right fork and start climbing towards the town. You will pass the primary school and then keep climbing until you reach the main road. Follow the main road north for a short distance and you will see the secondary college on the left. The nature trail starts on the left side of the road after the secondary school. There is a sign there. Follow the nature trail in a north westerly direction for about five hundred metres until you see a trail climbing up the hill on the right hand side. Climb up this trail and it will take you back to the main road. Follow this north for a few hundred meters to arrive back at the starting point. Two hours with plenty of stops for bird watching. You can see my route on Alltrails app under the Nagarkot to Kattike...
