Beyond the town of Madhuban, we enter into a narrow pristine valley ascending 300m on a superb trail to reach the summit of Kathmandu Valley’s eastern rim known as Lakhuri Bhanjyang. This is probably the oldest route east out of Kathmandu Valley, connecting the ancient cities of the valley with Panauti. What a grunt! But the views of the Himalayas are more than compensate. From the saddle, the descent is on switch-backed jeep track. After an hour and a 500m descent, we come to Sisneri, a quiet valley village.
