Few
people trek around the Kathmandu
valley. Yet it offers a rich insight into the lives, history,
culture and religion, together with the daily toil in the fields
of its inhabitants. The valley rim lies around 1000/ 2800
m and in the spring offers early flowering rhododendrons and
through the autumn and winter, wonderful mountain vistas which
can, from certain view-points, stretch from Everest in the east
to Annapurna in the west.
