Monsoon Trails of Shivapuri

Traversing the ridges of Shivapuri National Park in the height of the summer monsoon is a lesson in patience. The trail ascends steeply through dense rhododendron and oak forests, enveloped in heavy mist.

The damp air brings vibrant green life to the forest floor, though it demands vigilant attention to wet rocks and muddy trails. Standing at the crest of the ridge, the view of the valley is entirely white—a quiet, absolute envelope of fog.
