What's this trip about?

    If you enjoy Mountain Biking and wish to experience as much of Nepal as possible in a short time then this package is an excellent option. In this tour, you'll travel along little-used dirt roads away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Only a short bike ride away lies a delightful world of wooded slopes, small villages, hidden temples and the views which include all of the snow-peaked peaks of the Nepal Himalayas – from Makalu to the Annapurnas providing some excellent, easy to semi-technical single track riding along old jeep roads. During these five days, we will experience all of the sights, sounds, tastes and smells that makeup life in Nepal’s ‘Middle Hills’. We will visit the historic cities of Patan and Bhaktapur, hill resort of Nagarkot with its sunrise view of the entire Nepal Himalaya and the temples, monasteries and picturesque villages tucked away in the forests along the way. We are so close to the bustle of Kathmandu, but so far off the beaten tourist trail.

Itinerary

Day 1 : Classic Trail Patan to Panauti

In the morning, we begin with a classic 50 km mountain bike trail through Thamel to Lubhu, climbing up the deteriorating track to the quiet Newari villages. It's a photographer's paradise due to the view of richly colored villages against a backdrop of snow-capped mou...

Day 2 : Panauti to Dhulikhel

In the morning, we ride through the trail and climb up to Dhulikhel or a more adventurous track which goes more steeply up through terraced fields to the Buddhist pilgrimage temple of Namo Buddha and then down to Dhulikhel. This involves a ride of about 35 km. Our camp at Dhulikhel offers fantastic sunset views of the great chain of the Himalaya. Overnight in Hotel.

Day 3 : Dhulikhel to Nagarkot via Bhaktapur

Today, we cycle downhill towards the medieval town of Bhaktapur, where we will explore the historic temples and courtyards. The afternoon is a steady series of switch-backs up onto the main ridge, where we find another spectacular vantage point at the hill-station of Nagarkot. Overnight in Hotel.

Day 4 : Nagarkot to Chisapani

We continue our ride through the trail in the morning with a sea of cloud in the valley beneath us and we can look beyond this to a mountain panorama which stretches from Makalu to the Annapurnas. The riding terrain is also superb as we slowly make our way along an ol...

Day 5 : Second highest mountain Shivapuri of the valley

Today is the final day of your mountain biking tour. We take the opportunity on our final day to climb the valley's second highest mountain Shivapuri 2732m, before descending back to Kathmandu on one of the best downhill rides in the area through Budhanalikantha. From Budhanilkantha, you'll be transferred to your hotel in our private vehicle.
