Nagarkot · Nightlife

Nagarkot has no bars or clubs. Dinner is at your hotel and the ridge is asleep by 10pm. That is entirely the point.

Every hotel has a bar and an east-facing terrace. Order a Gorkha beer and watch the valley lights come on.

At 2,195m with almost no light pollution, the ridge gives you a night sky Kathmandu can never manage.

In the cold months most guesthouses light a fire on the terrace after dinner. Ask when you check in.

The one genuinely useful bit of Nagarkot nightlife advice: sunrise is the event, so go to bed.
