Hiking around Nagarkot

The ambience and facilities at The Fort have been created to help transform the stressed-out city dwellers into active outdoor fun-seekers. You’ll amaze yourself with your ability to hike, bike or boulder and still have the energy to read, swap your stories, roll and kick around your ideas or gain insight into the local culture and heritage or just chill in front of the majestic Himalayas. And all these happen effortlessly and spontaneously at The Fort. There are many options available depending on your level of physical fitness and the bend of mind. We used to run one of Nepal’s pioneering adventure organisations and our passion for the outdoors is very much alive.
