Mountain Biking in Nepal: A popular way of travel
Why Mountain Biking in Nepal Is a Top Way to Travel?
Introduction
Mountain Biking in Nepal is another of the best ways to experience rural scenery, life, and riding. Most mountain bike trails go through farm villages and towns, including their ancient heritage. Mountain Biking has become a popular way of travel in Nepal among younger generations, and the number of riders is increasing, along with the distances they travel.
Mountain Biking tours range from day trips to 3-4 days in and around the Kathmandu Valley. These trips show you another side of Kathmandu: the real lives of villagers and villages that shape the country’s culture, history, and scenery. Some biking trips climb steep uphills and offer fascinating mountain views from the ridgelines that rim the Kathmandu Valley. The never-ending scenes unfold into a panorama of snow-capped mountains from Annapurna, Manaslu, Ganesh and Langtang Himal, and Jugal Himal, and Mt. Everest towards the far eastern horizon.
Beyond Kathmandu Valley, we organize Pokhara to Kathmandu on the back trail, avoiding the main highway for a week; Lhasa to Kathmandu biking with North Everest Base Camp in Tibet biking for 1,100 kilometers taking 12-15 days, and biking around the Annapurna crossing Thorong La Pass at 5,416 meters, an overwhelming biking trip for two weeks. Other famous trails are Peekye Peak 7 days, Kaligandaki Valley (10 days and Upper Mustang 15 days.
