Ranikot has got potential to attract Kathmandu hikers but lacks infrastructures

Ranikot, a place that blends historical significance and natural beauty, is situated about 2,000 metres above sea level near the border of Bhaktapur and Panauti. Of late, Ranikot has become one of the favourite travel destinations for many visitors.

Mainly, after the lockdown, people who were confined to their houses visited this place to inhale fresh air and enjoy the natural scenery. Not only this, but widened roads also contributed to making this place one of the popular routes for hikers.
