Nepal is overflowing with mountain biking possibilities, mountains and culture, and AdventureX have teamed up with Pokhara Mountain Bike Club to offer some of the finest mountain bike trips in the Himalaya. The trails offer scenic beauty as you pedal through villages, terraced rice fields, temples and monasteries, witnessing the spectacular views of the snowy peaks of the Himalayas and focussing mostly on off-road dirt trails where other bikers have not been.

Backed up by a support vehicle and staying in a choice of comfortable guest houses and hotels along the way, you will certainly get the most from this amazing expedition. The trip itinerary is flexible and can be tailored to suit your ability and requirements.
