Epic Mountain Biking Trips in Nepal
Nepal is a must-visit for mountain bikers, as it has some of the world’s best flowing single trails, gnarly switchbacks, and challenging rocky trails that test your limits. And let’s not forget about the breathtaking views of rolling green hills and lofty mountains.
The best part of Nepal’s mountain bike trails is that they are close to Kathmandu. So if you’re on a short trip to Nepal and still want to go mountain biking, the routes around Kathmandu will offer you a fantastic adventurous trail, so you can enjoy the beautiful landscape around the Kathmandu Valley. The trails around Kathmandu Valley offer accessible courses that amateur cyclists can handle as well as challenging routes that require a lot of technical skills.
If you’re up for a more significant challenge, the trails at the mountains, with rugged terrain and thinner air, are where you should head if you want to test your limits both physically and mentally.
One of the best parts of mountain biking at a higher altitude is the breathtaking landscape that changes from lush green paddy fields to rocky, thinning vegetation. Along with the spectacular landscape, experiencing the culture and tradition of the different people living along the routes adds a little more to the unique Nepal experience.
Mountain biking in Nepal offers you a ride on beautiful flowy trails and rugged landscapes, joyful rides through tiny hamlets and streams, or the thrill of crossing over the famous suspension bridges and passing temples and shrines. You will also get to know some of the most hospitable and friendly people on the planet.
