  • Kathmandu Valley Rim Trek reviewer 1
    · September 11th, 2025
    This trek revealed a side of Kathmandu Valley rarely seen by tourists, with peaceful trails and authentic village life. Nepal Social Treks ensured a smooth experience with expert guidance and genuine local interactions. A refreshing blend of nature and culture away from the city buzz.
