Nepal's diverse terrain is a mountain biker's dream. Mountain biking offers an environmentally sound way of exploring this magnificent country, its landscape and living heritage. Because this is a Spartan, laborious mode of travel, it is also considered the way to travel by the 'purists'. There are plenty of dirt roads and trails in Nepal to meet every mountain biker's wildest fantasy. Mountain biking is also recommended if you wish to explore the urban centers such as Pokhara and Kathmandu valley. Imagine, if you will, a ride through lush green rice fields, through hamlets, up and down the hillside, along the riverbank, around temples, past the street roaming cattle, along the highway, you name it. Through snow, monsoon downpour, wonderful light effects, or fierce head winds, depending on place and season. The adventurous souls may plan extended trips to such exotic locales as Tibet, Namche Bazaar, and western Nepal. You could even do the entire length of Nepal across the plains. What you can or cannot do on mountain bike is limited only by your imagination.
Annapurna Circuit Mt. bike tour passes through a variety of different landscapes, from lush sub-tropical rainforest, deep valleys and cultivated fields, to wooded alpine and high desert. We visit many different villages, meeting the local hill tribes and enjoy frequent spectacular views of massive Himalayan peaks, including the Annapurnas and Manaslu. To top it all, the crossing of the Thorong La pass (5,416m) is a challenging ascent, surrounded by some of the most magnificent mountain scenery in the world. After a day of sight-seeing in Kathmandu, we travel overland to Besisahar, where we begin the biking anti-clockwise around the Annapurna Massif. The trail climbs gradually, allowing us to acclimatise to the high altitude, as we travel along the Marsyangdi Valley. After the crossing of the Thorong La, we descend to Muktinath, one of the most important pilgrimage sites for Hindus. Descending down the Kali Gandakhi river valley, with its panoramic views of Machapuchare (the "Fish Tail" peak) and Tatopani.
