Mountain Biking in Nepal
Nepal offers a great diversity of terrain with a varied
climate from the pleasant scenic rides of the tropical
plains of Terai to the subtropical valleys of the
middle mountains, to the more challenging Trans Himalayan
zones that lie in the rain shadow of the Himalayas.
About 48% of Nepal's population lives in the middle
mountains, which includes the broad shallow basin
of the Kathmandu Valley.
The inhabitant's form
a diversity of ethnic groups, a blend of the Indo-Aryan
and the Tibeto-Burman races. The only flatlands in
Nepal run from the east to west and lie in a narrow
strip of the southern Terai.
Nepal is the world's
number one adventure playground for mountain bikers.
From the flatlands of the Terai to the terraced hillside
farms, the vertical landscape soars towards the snow
clad peaks of the Himalayas, inviting you to share
the adventure of this awesome landscape. The tropical
lush vegetation is a rich contrast against the stark,
arctic regions where winds have swept, sculpting amazing
forms on arid valleys of the Tibetan plateau. Discover
yourself in one of the world's greatest wonders by
joining us on an exhilarating and memorable biking
adventure in the Himalayas.
Mountain biking is a tremendous way to see the exotic
sights of our kingdom such as the ancient routes of
Trans-Himalayan Traders and the rural village life
of Nepal. Here you will enjoy the timeless culture
and rich flora and fauna of our heritage as you explore
such wonders as the Kathmandu Valley, the monuments
or the temple complexes. Alternatively peddle at your
own pace along some of the hidden trails to the rarely
visited rural villages where you will see the warm
smiles of locals living the preserved, traditional
and simple life (on the verge of poverty, long forgotten
in the post industrial cultures of the world), that
is the style of Nepal.
