The Himalayas of Nepal

A big thank you to the H+I team in Nepal! RJ, Nishma and Ram went above and beyond to make our trip a memorable one. The highlight of this adventure really is the Mustang Valley and it was fantastic to be able to enjoy it whilst somebody else took care of the admin associated with it from the entry permits to looking after the bikes at the end of a long day riding.

Additionally, in the weeks before the trip, Mandil and Catherine, needed to make some last-minute changes to the itinerary (due to the state of the Nepali airline industry) and they did so in a timely fashion, making difficult decisions and communicating early and often with us guests.

Thank you H+I for a memorable experience! Hopefully we can join you again sometime soon in the future!

The Yeti Nepal Gathering was an amazing trip!

I am very thankful for all of the coordination and assistance that was provided by Victoria and Chris at H+I HQ. Victoria was always available to answer questions, coordinate logistics and assist in the process of preparing me for an adventure half way around the world. I felt extremely prepared with their assistance. This organization is top notch…they put together an exceptional trip in one of the most beautiful places on this earth with an elite team of guides to lead us.

The guides were amazing. There is no chance that you could ever coordinate a trip which included such a massive host of logistics, multiple cultural experiences and amazing mountain biking without these folks. Special thanks to Mandil, Rajesh, Nishma, Ashish and Arun. They are the best… Quality individuals who are incredible riders. They were kind, patient and effectively dealt with every “curve ball” thrown at them (and believe me, I threw them a few!). hey worked tirelessly to make sure we were all having a good time.

Special thanks to Nat Campbell and Yeti cycles. Being involved with a Yeti Gathering in Nepal was the adventure of a life time. Yeti makes an amazing bike. I believe that your organization is passionately committed to researching, designing and manufacturing the best mountain bike in the industry. Importantly, I also feel that you deeply care about your customers and their experience with your bikes. Due to the above reasons, I will be a life long Yeti rider.

If you are interested in experiencing one of the most beautiful countries in the world, with some of the most amazing culture and Mountain bike riding…this trip is a great choice. You will be provided with a seamless mountain biking, cultural and sight seeing experience of a life time. Thank you to the crew I rode with (you all are the best!) and to all involved in making this trip happen.

Wow - what a trip! I've been referring to this trip as the metaphorical mandala... A journey to nirvana. I echo Mike's review that despite all the unexpected weather-related upheavals, both the crew (Mandil, Arun, RJ, Nishma, and countless others) and the client group made this trip fabulous. The team worked incredibly hard behind the scenes every step of the way and Mandil's charisma and connections not only kept the group energy high, but also eventually landed us in the Mustang valley to experience the humbling, thrilling magic of riding under the towering 8,000m peaks. This team is so dedicated to making this a great experience - combine that with the culture of Nepal, great people to share the experience, and challenging yet spectacularly beautiful rides.... And you get magic... Not to mention countless memories to take home.

Also big shout out to Victoria for her pre-trip organization and rapid responses to my emails, especially given my last-minute booking.

Such an awesome trip! My review is about our amazing crew, led by Mandil, that forged on as we dealt with the most challenging weather in October that they have ever seen. All of our internal flights (except the exit one) cancelled again and again, but Mandil managed to get us up to the Mustang area beyond all hope.

To me, this is where the value of a great company like H+I comes in. If we were on our own, or with countless other tour companies, we would have missed the epic rides near Kagbeni, with the culture, the views, the people. When we arrived up in Jomsom and Mandil posted on social media, so many of his associated tour operators were like, "How the heck did you get up there?", because we were alone in making it.

Beyond the heroics, we had superb accommodations, great food, fantastic rides, and a great group of folks to hang with. Mandil, RJ, Arun and Nisma took care of everything for us and it made the trip amazing!

This was my 2nd trip with H+I, having gone to Slovenia in 2019. This time I convinced 2 work colleagues to join me in Nepal for what I positioned as a "trip of a lifetime". The trip proved me right.

Because Covid shut down international travel for so long, ours was the first H+I trip to Nepal in ~ 2 yrs. It went logistically without a flaw and the guides (Mandil, RJ and Arun) picked up right where they left off. Pre-ride accommodations in Kathmandu were top notch and airport pick-ups were a welcome touch after long flights. We started our riding journey in Nargakot - put our bikes together there at the hotel and rode from there the first 2 days. On the first day's ride I noticed bushes and tree limbs had been recently trimmed along our trail. Yes - the H+I team did this - as preparation for our trip! One of countless "little things" H+I did to make this trip so amazing.

From Nargakot we moved on to Bhaktapur, Jomsom, Kagbeni, Kalopani, Pokhara and ultimately back to Kathmandu. Accommodations in each town were a perfect fit for the location and provided opportunity for sharing the day's stories over a meal and a cold beer. The riding each day was challenging but so rewarding, and we reached our highest altitude of the trip on day 6 at 4300m. Temps were moderate and we never had to ride in the rain. Our bikes were well taken care of and serviced in the evenings before the next day's ride.

Our group of 6 riders bonded quickly, making the ride more enjoyable and creating enduring friendships. And I cannot come up with enough superlatives to describe the country of Nepal. The scenery was spectacular, the locals warm and welcoming, and the experience overall is unmatched. Days after returning home I'm still telling myself "yeah, we did that".

So...if you're considering your own "trip of a lifetime" in Nepal, prep hard on the bike and leave the rest to H+I.

Nepal remains an iconic destination for mountain biking and I like mountain biking, so its always been a goal of mine to get there. I was luckily enough to go and I could not recommend H+I for the trip more.

This is logistically not the easiest of places to get around and notably get bikes to riders at the right places. Despite this Mandil and the team delivered and in many more ways to make an unforgettable trip. The teams dedication, passion, organization and patience really showed.

Yes I went for the mountain biking but I don’t think I was prepared to really have such a amazing trip, on a number of levels from the culture, landscape, people, which of course makes Nepal great. I just hope I can return sometime to Mustang.

Wow! What a fantastic trip. Lots of support and pre-care from Victoria at H+I before the trip. Followed by amazing and very interesting guides in Mandil, RJ and Arun. We were also very fortunate to have a group of riders that were tremendous fun.

The trip is worth it just to experience the Himalayas and the people. Pair that with the way the trip was put together, how we were looked after, questions/issues responded to, and the trip was first class.

Amazing memories for a lifetime! Highly recommended.

Upon returning the most common question is, How was it? My simple answer has consistently been, " Everything I had hoped for". I always wanted to see the big mountains with my own eyes and combining that with mountain biking made it perfect. I thought for sure some details will be hard to arrange but that was not the case with super guides Mandil and RJ. They were amazing at adapting to the personalities in our group of six. We found common ground in our ridding, interest, jokes and significant time we spent together. We probably asked over a 1,000 questions but the responses from Mandil and RJ were full of excitement and information.
The trip is so well designed in terms of when we move on, time spent ridding and time spent taking in the amazing country and people of Nepal. Daily briefings set the course for the day ahead or what to expect when we awoke the next day.
I ride a lot and have been able to see and ride some awesome places around the world. Although not as many as Mandil, this trip nailed it. A perfect combination of biking, scenery, culture and awesomeness.
I can't thank Mandil and RJ enough for creating a " bubble" of amazing days, nights and a trip of a lifetime.

If this is your first H+I trip, i would recommand Nepal.
Not only the peaks around this country but also the local culture, landform, vegetation change and your new friends.

instead of monotonous terrain, Nepal trail change day by day when you follow Mandil team, you will experience wet and slippery DH trail, after long and steep climbing on local fireroad, and you will roaming around the local village at lower altitude ;

You will climbing in the morning at Mustang valley on dry and rocky terrain, stunning scenary and windy weather awaiting after the climb, what accompany you is loose switchback along downhill and shiining peaks.

Landscape keep changing everyday and you will feel you are riding different places on the earth, the fact is Nepal terrain are changing so quick along the trip. The loneliness will surrounding you when you cycling those mountain.

What you found in this trip is not only the exciting track, also your new friends. We from 5 different continent and gather in Nepal, share the stories and skill, discover fun along the track, push the bike puffy together at long steep climb...
Those friend from Australia, Scotland, Utah, San Francisco, Alaska, Canyon, include our guides from Nepal and me from Singapore experencing the adventure together,
Those made unforettable memories in my life, even when I flashback those amazing photos, laughing sound still ring around my ear.

While you are enjoying the amazing trip, Mandil's team include Rajesh and Suman they will provide you instand solution for every difficulty or machanical issue along the trip, together with strong logistic team with seamlessly travalling experience. Like Brint mentions: Plan your own Nepal trip might a bad idea 🙂

It’s now two months since I arrived back in New Zealand from our adventure in Nepal. I’ve delayed posting this deliberately, so I could be sure that I didn’t write the review in the afterglow of what felt like an amazing trip, and to ponder whether it was as good as I thought it was at the time. On reflection it wasn’t as good, it was better… so much better. I was pinching myself while I was there, and I continue to have to pinch myself to remind me that I really was in Nepal in November 2019. I still look at the photographs in disbelief, and they really don’t do it justice.
Nepal has been on the bucket list for the thick end of 50 years. Ever since reading, as a child, of the great expeditions to this remote and mystical place. For many years it was trekking that I thought about until moving to New Zealand and, 15 years or so ago, discovering the joys mountain biking. Early in 2019 the germ of a plan started developing for a father and son trip; a celebration of a graduation and marking an imminent birthday of significance. Nepal just had to be involved and after research H+I stood out as the obvious choice for the tour.
Roll on 1 November 2019, arriving at Kathmandu airport, emerging from the chaos with our packs and bike bags to be greeted by the irrepressible and engaging Suman. It immediately felt right and that it was going to be a good trip. The riding group gradually assembled at the hotel, ready for the off; an eclectic bunch if ever… the magnificent seven!
The next 12 days were spent with a great bunch of people: both us tourists and the guides. Mandil comes across as laid back and easy going; this veneer hides his consummate professionalism and impeccable attention to detail. This was an essential element for the success of the trip: everything was always under control, the logistics perfect, the accommodation superb, the choice of trails outstanding and the guides seriously world class. Ah yes, the guides: RJ Ripper and Suman two of the nicest, most humble, fun, caring and professional young guys you could ever hope to meet. Nothing was too much trouble for them, giving up a dropper post and swapping a wheel being just two examples of their support for the riders.
I always expected to be challenged by the riding, that was one of the attractions. So yes, I was the crash test dummy on the first day, and yes riding at 4300 metres is quite exhausting… there were indeed one or two Zen moments, focusing on the journey being much more important rather than the seemingly distant destination. In all honesty though, those moments were far outweighed by the times the destination came, disappointingly, way too soon. With the support and encouragement of my guardian angels, RJ and Suman it was always enjoyable, my confidence increased, and skills improved throughout the trip.
I’m not a spiritual person but there is indeed something special about the high mountains and the simplicity of life in that part of the world. It’s not every trip you get to spend time in a converted Buddhist monastery, still with its shrine.
Lasting memories will be: riding through small villages, high fiving young kids on their way to school, spinning prayer wheels to spread the mantra, hurtling down a dusty mountain road passing motorbikes, cars, buses and trucks, remembering to pull up my buff to avoid eating the yak poo flung up from my tyres.
So, thank you Carl, Dan Joerg, Mandil, RJ, Sherief, Stephen, Suman, Sylvain and the HI Crew for helping to make it the trip of a lifetime.
The only challenge now is… where next?

Our mountain bike trip to Nepal with H+I was one of the most unique experiences of our lives. My wife Pip and I decided to do the tour for our honeymoon and it was an adventure that surpassed all expectations. We mountain biked all kinds of amazing terrain, from lush rainforests in the foothills to moon-like, high alpine deserts surrounded by towering white-capped peaks. The mountain biking catered to a variety of levels and while everyone on the trip was a strong rider, it certainly didn't feel like you had to be a 'pro' to have a great time. When we were planning the trip, I remember that at one point, we thought maybe we could organize it ourselves (man, would that have been a mistake!). Nepal is no easy place to adventure, but H+I makes it feel that way and takes the challenge out of all of the complicated travel logistics. They know the secret trails, have access to the best lodging/accommodation, and have the right local knowledge to make sure everyone feels safe and taken care of.



While the mountain biking alone would have been enough to give H+I 11 out of 10 stars, the best part for us was the people. The guides, Mandil, Suman, and RJ were second to none and went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a best in class experience. Our group was also awesome, consisting of a diverse set of riders hailing from Scotland, Australia, Singapore, Kenya, California, Utah, Alaska, and beyond. It was like a more fun version of adult study-abroad (but you adventure outside instead of read books). We can't wait for our next H+I adventure and are already planning where to go next!

I got in Nepal primarily because of my best friend whose dream was to MTB in Nepal. I couldn’t let him alone on this trip, so I was his chaperon. Having spent most of the Spring and Summer on a sailboat, I was unsure if I was capable of following the group as my training was limited to a 2-month period prior departure. It's worth to note that this was my first biking trip as well.



In the weeks leading to Nepal, Victoria at H+I did a great job to answer my numerous questions. She’s not pointing you to a FAQ page, but genuinely caring that you’re well-prepared with detailed, personalized answers.



At the moment you set foot in Nepal, one of the world’s poorest country, you’re left in the hands of Mandil and his team. Self-confessed with ADD — which probably explains his incredible multitasking abilities — Mandil shines early on as being curious and interested to learn about everyone. He’s on top of every details of this trip and he’s making sure that you’re being cared in style and luxury, just as if you’d be in one of the world’s richest country. Food and lodge will keep you fit and alert for the riding to come.



The riding in Nepal is not for everyone. If you think you’re awesome, think again. Mandil, RJ and Suman are the best riders in Southeast Asia and you’ll see how average you really are. Fortunately, they’ll patiently wait for you to catch your breath after every climb. If you’re not really up to the challenge, they'll find you alternatives ways to go up. They’ll fix your bike after you crash (or replace failed parts with some from their own bike). They’ll share tricks and stories and inevitably, you’ll be a better rider at the end of the trip. And if your wear spandex, they’ll really make fun of you.



More than just a MTB aventure, this trip is more of a journey in time and space. You’ll be blown away by the sheer cultural diversity of Nepal. Kathmandu, Pokhara and Mustang are very different regions and each will seduce you in different ways (without even resorting to HE massages). People, landscapes and buildings are incredibly photogenic. Your Instagram friends will be amazed by your talent at taking pictures — even if you don’t have any.



Was the trip worth it? Absolutely. In fact, you’d be crazy not to go. It would be like missing a date with the most gorgeous girl in town.

This was my first full trip with H+I and as expected, I was blown away by it.

The Himalaya's are truly jaw dropping and give you a new sense of what a mountain is. As the days go by the views get better and better. You'll truly feel like you are being taken on a journey of Nepalese culture, riding through farms, villages and ancient cities is something truly special.

The stand out part was flying in to the Mustang, the scenery is jaw dropping and the flight is kinda crazy, you feel as though you're brushing by the mountains.

The trails are very varied from big mountain to tight in the trees and each have their own character, adding to the trip but if I'm honest the Mustang has to be a ride on every Mountain Biker's bucket list.

This review wouldn't be complete without mentioning the professionalism of the team guiding us through the rugged terrain, we couldn't get over the level of detail they went too to ensure we had everything we needed and if you didn't already know then Mandil, Suman and RJ rip on a bike.

There are no shortage of good times and I've gone home with some incredible memories.

This trip is not a normal bike tour, it is really a trip of a lifetime. I have done a lot of trips in different countries, but these one is really incredible. I expected cool trails in a spectacular landscape, but these trip is so much more. From the minute Suman picked me up at the airport, everything was just perfect. Accommodation, transfers, bike transfers, food etc.

The trails where really amazing and every day different, so it is really hard to tell which day was the best. It is really hard to describe to somebody who was not on the trip what makes these trip so special. These are all the little amazing details every day. Big thanks to RJ for your unbelievable job with the camera. The pictures are just awesome. Besides mountain biking you can start a second career as a photographer. And thanks to RJ and Suman to take care of the bikes over the 12 days. It was really cool to ride with the two best Mountain bikers from Nepal. Besides biking it was really nice to meet all the extremely friendly people in Nepal.

Big thanks to Mandil, RJ and Suman for the best MTB trip I have ever done.

As you will see from all the reviews, and cliché as it may sound, this is a whole experience rather than a simple mountain bike trip.

I did not know what to expect starting out. I knew there would be incredible mountain views, some crazy altitude and the epic flight in Jomsom. I was not quite so prepared for the unique riding through the villages, the amazing food and really high quality accommodation. Despite all the travel to the different places Mandil and his team never missed a beat, whether it was shuttles or booking spas, the trip was so smooth it allowed all of our group just to focus on the moment. This is particularly impressive considering the crazy roads, insane traffic and inevitable delays at the various airports. Not once were unsure of what was happening.

As for the riding, it is hard to describe without being there. Again, I did not know what to expect but the team outdid themselves. I certainly could not imagine there would be so much quality single track in a place where mountain biking is not (yet) a massive thing. It all just kept on getting better and better! There is always the question of "what was your favourite day?" but everyone struggled to pick just one. Each day of riding is so unique that it is almost impossible to compare. You really have to see it to believe.

The opportunity to ride these amazing trails was matched with the opportunity to ride with probably the two best mountain bikers in Nepal. Watching them have fun on their bikes and shred the trails was an experience in itself! And at the end of the day Mandil and the whole team, from the guides to the drivers, maintained a high level of professionalism. It really was the trip of a lifetime. There is so much to this trip that you cannot ever hope to fit it all in words. A massive thank you to H+I as well as Mandil and the team.

When I registered for this bike trip, the bar was set really high. I expected nothing less than awesome views & bike. Well - my expectations were exceeded.

It is hard to describe the experience we had over those 12 days of biking. Of course, the views are awesome. Of course, we had great days of riding, always different from one day to another. But this trip was so much more.

The experience we lived during this trip is truly memorable. Nepal has a rich an interesting culture that we got to experience. Food. Temples. Living & riding in small remote villages. Having a tea in a lost village of Mustang. High fives to children as we ride in their villages.

The logistic & support that Mandil put together is also very impressive. The food & accommodations were perfect. But all the magic that happens behind the scene so we do not have to worry about anything is quite something. In all time we had 3 awesome guides with us - Mandil, RJ & Suman - in addition to the support crew to take care of transportations & all. RJ & Suman did magic a number of times to fix mechanical problems that are bound to happen in such a trip. Always with a smile. We simply had to ride and have fun.

I did a few mountain bike trips around the globe. This one is in a different league.

A big thank you to Mandil, RJ, Suman, the support crew & Catherine from H+I.

There is a reason why this ride consistently gets 5 star reviews.
Quite naturally I had a lot of anticipation leading up to trip, and H+I do an amazing job of trying to describe and prepare you for what to expect, but the truth is from day 1 exceptions where blown away daily.
Since returning, I have been consistently asked what was my favourite part of the trip, and what is a seemingly a simple question is actually quite difficult to answer because the whole experience is something that trumps any expectation I had coming into this.

The MTB ride in Nepal has every flavour of trail you can imagine, from grunty climbs, technical and flowy descents, to mindlessly fast drops. It's a mountain bikers paradise, although that perhaps is superseded by the natural surroundings which are breathtaking. The riding crew catered for all the skill levels within the group, which I was thankful for particularly with my tendency to crash a lot.

Mandil and his superstar support crew made everything seamless, and they are such a personable team. From accommodation, meals, transfers, and pre-ride briefings, everything was very well organised….. all I had to do was Eat -> Sleep -> Ride -> Repeat.

In short, this trip would be an undersell if it was just a Mountain Bike ride. This trip is about experiencing the Himalayas….. the people, the culture, and the natural wonders of such a sacred place, and all shared with other enthusiast riders from all over the world. A lifetime of memories.

Thanks H+I,Catherine, Mandil, Rj, Suman (and the other guys behind the scenes) for creating and sharing what is a true life experience.

Yes, of course the MTBing is amazing. It is Nepal, the Himalayas, what did I expect? Highlight for me; the 30mph singletrack descent that takes you onto the spine of a ridge like you are on Red Bull Rampage (but is actually rideable by pretty much anyone, even me with my vertigo, just...).

The extra things I didn't expect:

- The quality of the accommodation & food. The spa hotel & pool in Pokhara, the 3 nights in a 300 year old Buddhist monastery & all the care that Mandil and team had put in to make sure that the accomm & food was far above normal local tourist standards.

- The guides; Mandil, RJ and Suman were awesome. How often do you get to ride with a group with 5 national MTB championship wins? Their riding was unbelievable and inspiring.

- The flexibility of the trip. Great descents for the skilled, but the vast majority rideable for the low-average skilled MTBer and no pressure - walk it if you need to. The climbs - enough to feel like you have got some exercise, but plenty of uplift in the van planned into ensure that this was still very much a holiday.

- Yak-donalds. No I didn't. But its just the fact that I could have...

- The local people, villages, monasteries, yaks and chickens with no road sense - so much more than 'just' the spectacular 8000m+ peaks.

A truly awesome trip for any MTBer.

It took a while to come down from this trip and we will be talking about it for a long time. Absolutely loved every day, each one so different from the last. Thank you Mandil and your amazing team for your support and for creating so many incredible memories that will be with us for years to come.

Incredible from start to finish. Awesome riding set in the most stunning scenery you can imagine. The climbs are really worthwhile for the views and epic descents.

The trip is organised so seamlessly it appears effortless and gives you a chance to unwind and fully focus on the riding and culture. Hats off to Mandil and the team - they really know what they’re doing and nothing is too big an ask.

I can't recommend this trip enough and haven't stopped talking about it to all my biking friends. It's a once in a lifetime experience that shouldn't be missed!

The Nepal trip is an absolute must do! Having done the New Zealand trip with H+I previously I knew to expect big things, but Mandil and the crew managed to step it up another few notches! Incredible variety of trails and scenery, highly professional team looking after us and our bikes, and a pretty awesome group (#bestgroupever)!

The rides were a good mix of ascents and downhills - while some of those hills really get the lungs going, you can be sure the descent at the top will be worthwhile. I was also surprised by the variety of trails - some tight and technical, others wide-open roads that last for hours and that any gravity rider would find fun. And you get straight into the good stuff - the first day is fast and challenging and really sets the tone for the rest of the trip!

Mandil and his team’s experience shines through on a regular basis - be it seeing RJ casually build a wheel ready for the next day of riding, or the seamless itinerary that rewards you with a rest day at just the right time. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure all you have to worry about is riding your bike, and make it look effortless at the same time. Plus Mandil’s name dropping always makes for a good story!

Haven’t been able to stop carrying on about the Nepal trip since I’ve been back (or showing-off the Instagram photos!) - highly recommend this trip for any rider after their trip-of-a-lifetime!

If there were extra stars I would give 100! WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW INCREDIBLE THIS TRIP IS!...Not only do you get VIP service to some of the most remote and gnarly mountain bike trails in Npeal..(think surrounded by Everest size Mountains hiking a bike on a trail with a sheep herd traffic jam).

Mandil, Sumon, RJ Ripper, and Raj are my favorite people. They will make you laugh, but make the trip so seamless behind the scenes. They were so mindful of our safety and enjoyment that they always went out of their way to make sure we were having a good time and still coming home in 1 piece. They pay attention to every detail and the entire trip is beyond expectations. They pack every thing you can think of into 2 weeks.

There's no way you could even experience 1/10th of what they show you if you weren't in their hands. You get to ride with the top riders nepal has to offer on the best trails while eating unique and delicious flavors and of course drinking Everest & Sherpa local beers.

I came home 2 days ago and I am officially an H+I addict. THE BEST way to experience a country and have the time of your life. #bestgroupever.

One of the greatest trips of my life! Hard to explain how lovely everything was from start to finish. The guides, culture, scenery, and riding all surpassed my expectations. Coming away from this trip a more skilled rider, and with a whole new set of friends. This trip needs to be at the very top of every mountain bikers destination list. Truly was the "best group ever!"

HUGE thanks to H+I and the entire crew in Nepal for making this trip so wonderful!

This was a bucket list trip and I can tick the box with the fattest green marker I can find!

It is a very well thought through itinerary in which biking on different trail types, culture, regions and accommodation choice just add up to a superb overall experience and memories for a lifetime.

We had "the best group ever :)". Fun on and off the trails. The guides are super friendly, helpful and skilled. If you go on this trip you will ride with the best mountain bikers in Nepal as guides.

Look at the pictures, if you think it looks great: go there. In real it is at least double the sensation!!

Mandil and the entire guide staff were incredible! We hit mindblowing trails, learned about and saw so much of Nepali culture, ate amazing food, and had a ton of fun with the group.

This was by far the best tour I’ve ever been on and the only way to do Nepal if you love mountain biking!!

This trip was highly recommended to us by some other H+I'ers that we have traveled with. So, we knew it had to be really good.

When you book a trip with H+I you see the photos, videos and read the itinerary. Justifiably you get quite excited about the trip. Even with the hype H+I still is able to over-deliver! This is our third trip in fourteen months with H+I and the Mountain Bike Nepal tour did not disappoint.

The trip was a true feast for the senses. Incredible views, medieval villages and great local food were on tap every day along with well thought out and super fun riding. One ride in the high mountains of the Mustang you might see yaks before launching into what seems like an endless descent. A few days later riding in the forest near Pokhara you might see monkeys crossing the trail!

Mandil has this trip perfectly organized. He did an outstanding job with his team of RJ and Ram to make the trip run seamlessly.

Just another H+I trip of a lifetime!

After having heard from several fellow travellers on previous trips that Nepal was their favourite adventure, expectations were naturally high. As usual though, the H+I adventures lived up to all of them!

The trails varied from technical to fast and flowy, from dry and rocky to forest soil or steps - and often seemed to last forever! All of it set before a massive range of mountains so majestic to take the last bit of your breath away when finally reaching the top of the climb! Plus, I've never in my life ridden with a group of monkeys before!

Apart from the riding, there were a lot of cultural things to see, remote villages to explore, and local food to be enjoyed. The accommodation and organisation was top and Mandil, RJ and team did a great job. Simply H+I!

Nepal was my sixth H+I adventure so it is fair to say that I am already a big fan and could easily real off a list of superlatives to describe my trip.

They definitely deserve the 5 star reputation that they have built.

The organisation beforehand and during was, as ever, top notch and the trails, oh the trails. With 8,000 metre peaks as a backdrop. Simply amazing. A mix of beautiful scenery, local culture and great company, Mandil and RJ both did a tremendous job of introducing us to Nepal and the variety of trails it has to offer. They ranged from technical rocky sections or Nepalese steps, to fast flowing trails where serious speeds could be reached. The descents were incredible and so, so long, worth every ounce of effort required to get to the top and more. The accommodation and food was superb, even though at times we were staying in quite remote areas. Just one final detail to sort now, where to go for my 7th trip??

As ever, I have no doubt H+I will have the answer.

Just back from the H+I October tour to Nepal, I can say this was not just an MTB tour right out of the very top draw, but a really outstanding multi-faceted holiday, and enjoyable in so many different and unexpected ways. We learnt much about Nepal, fell in love with the people, the gentle, largely Buddhist culture, the healthy and invariably delicious meals and the well-fed stray dogs and sacred cows which seem to populate every street of every town and village along the way. Go with the idea that it’s really not ONLY about the riding, it’s so much more…. but then the riding IS something else quite special as well.

The riding is very varied, from deep green woods and sunken river beds to wide open spaces so vast, so imposing and so colourful you will wonder if you are still on the same planet. Technically varied as well, from a few decent rock gardens and steep-ish and rooty trails on riding days 1, 2 and 8 to switchbacks and long and flowing trails during the scenic Mustang valley days. It is by no means all downhill and expect to be pushed on the big ascents even if you are very fit. If you worry about being not fit enough, don’t, the guides will talk and walk with you for as long as it takes.

The three guides led by Mandil are outstanding riders but more importantly really friendly, supportive and amusing, both on the trails and during the down time afterwards. Really, really hard not love this one and go back again!

Awesome organization, an eye for detail in everything and great value for money. Just loved it from start to finish!

When my husband initially brought up the idea of mountain biking in Nepal I didn't know what to expect. I knew it would be beautiful and challenging but this trip is way more than just mountain biking. Mandil and his team do an extraordinary job making you feel at home from the moment you land. From our warm welcome at 2:00am after traveling for 24 hours. To ensuring that every logistical piece connects perfectly!

They were even able to find my husband's garmin after he lost it deep in the woods! The culture, food, & trails are one in a million! If you're ready for an adventure that will open your eyes to what "big mountains" truly mean then don't think twice! We only live once and this is a trip you don't want to miss!

A huge thank you to Mandil, Nish & RJ! You all did an outstanding job! We are so excited to book our next H+I trip! I am sure it won't disappoint!

After almost a year of looking forward to this trip and building it up in my mind, it definitely did not disappoint. While the riding was awesome, this trip was more about the whole experience of Nepal and the Himalayas. Riding through villages and getting high fives from the children was a high point. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming it's hard not to love this country.

The logistics of the trip were so well planned by H+I that I barely had to think - I could just sit back and enjoy the scenery and riding. The accommodations were all top notch and the food was superb. I especially appreciated the beautiful and tasty cake that arrived after dinner on my Birthday. The H+I team really takes care of their customers!

Thank you Mandil, Nish, + RJ for all the fun, as well as for wiping the blood off:-) What a blast. South America next???

The H+I Nepal trip is absolutely the way to go. Lots of people go to BC, Colorado, the Alps, but on this trip you’ll be off Himalayas in the Mustang region of Nepal: the roof of the world. The 3 guides on the trip: NIshant, RJ, and Mandil are world class. They are expert riders and mechanics. But more importantly they are so much fun to ride with and they are all smiles. This trip had no logistical flaws.

H+I was always ready waiting for us, accommodations were fantastic (especially the coolest village in the world: Kagbeni), food was excellent, and it was everything I could have asked for.

Great pictures, great memories, and great riding.

After Scotland’s Coast to Coast, we put our trust in H+I for Nepal. Their organization and logistics made the decision simple and Mandil’s team on the ground in Nepal was so well run, even our flights were on time. Mostly...

Smooth operations aside, the trip is expertly crafted to contrast the chaos of Kathmandu with the calm in Nagarkot. The subtropical forest and rice patties around Bhaktapur with the windswept Mustang Valley and hanging glaciers of the Annapurna region.

Hundreds of photos and none will convey the shear scale of the Himalaya, the steepness of terrain or the power of the wind. They will show incredible sights, happy riders, and the face of winded exhaustion approaching the top of Lubra Pass.

Let’s not forget the riding. Euan undersold the riding to us while we were in Scotland. The trails were spectacular. From the rooty drops of Nagarkot to the wide open speed runs of Lubra, each trail had its own character and challenge. Yes, we all walked something. Sometimes up, sometimes down. We crashed, we laughed, we bled a little, but that is why we are out on mountain bikes away from the confines of a tour bus.

Of course there are also the people. The Nepali people were warm and welcoming. We always felt safe for ourselves and our gear. Mandil is amazing. A great guide and rider, but also a wealth of global pop culture which kept meals, shuttles and tours entertaining and educational.

The support crew had our bikes and luggage ready, always on time and in the right place. RJ and Nish had our backs on the trail for fast tube swaps or maintenance between rides.

Lastly in the people department are the types of individuals H+I attracts. While each group will have a different makeup and character, you find yourself building friendships over the course of the trip. Shared suffering on the climbs and post descent survival adrenaline seems to help with those bonds.

All in all, another amazing adventure thanks to H+I.

Every mountain biker should ride in the Himalayas, and the best way to do this would be with H+I - simply superb and exceeded all of my expectations.

Every aspect of the trip was really well organised. From initial contact with Catherine at H+I HQ's right through to the final transfer back to the airport. Amazing trails (a "bit" like the Peak District), a chance to witness local cultures, and great support throughout the trip. The Lubra and La Thoronga days being particular highlights of the riding, amazing single-track descents after a hard earned ascent, but also really impressed with the trails in the Kathmandu Valley and Pokhara.

Great guiding by Mandil - as he said at our last evenings meal it was like riding with friends rather than a guided tour. I've had previous experiences with other companies whereby unfortunately it felt as though you were just trying to tag along with them on their own personal ride - definitely not the case though with these guys. Much respect too to RJ, Nish, and the rest of the crew who handled all of the logistics - how they got everything to run like clockwork and so smoothly is beyond me.

Amazing food and accommodation in amazing locations. The accommodation was a particular highlight - I had imagined that we would be "roughing it" to a certain extent but all of the accommodation was a pleasant surprise - either very nice hotels/resorts or the lovely old monastery in the Mustang befitting of the surroundings. It was also great to have Mandil to point us in the right direction for the little things such as the laundry facilities in Pokhara.

I would highly recommended both this trip and H+I, and am looking forward to checking out the H+I website to see where my adventures may take me next.

NEPAL, 8-19 OCT 2018: Two years in the planning, and as what I have now learned is most properly called a "roadie b*tch", I dreamed of riding in Nepal and coming face-to-face with the highest mountains on the planet, the unique culture and landscape of Nepal and its wonderful people and trails which would thrill and challenge in equal measure, as a once-in-a-lifetime trip.

Well H+I has ruined it... because it was, by such a distance, the best adventure I have experienced that I will be back riding with H+I again. And again. And again.

I can't thank enough trip leader Mandil, super-guides RJ and Nish, my beloved rented Banshee, Catherine, Donald and the entire behind-the-scenes operation, and the amazing group of like-minded adventurers with whom I shared the Mustang trails. Yukon, Slovenia and New Zealand, here I come.

Surpassing all of my expectations. Wonderful trails in a backdrop that just takes your breath away. From riding through villages that look like they haven't changed for the last 500 years, to descending over the Lubra Pass on dry and dusty trails that go on forever. Fabulous food, first rate accommodation, knowledgeable and flexible guides.

An adventure I will never forget. Most highly recommended. Special thanks to Mandil and RJ for making the trip such a special one and for providing some great photos as mementos of our journey.

I can’t recommend this trip enough. It is so much more than a mountain bike trip. As well as riding in the highest mountains in the world you are immersed in the culture of a truly wonderful country. The food and accommodation was spot on. Mandil, RJ and the rest of the crew just make life easy, altogether a very well organised and professionally run tour.

I would definitely book again and would not hesitate to book a different tour with H+I.

Few weeks after the trip and I am still amazed of how fantastic it was. Everything was so perfectly organised... All you need to do is focus on having fun.



Great guides, great trails, great food, great people, great experience. If you are a mountain biker you should definitely put this trip on your bucket list.



And yes, it is as beautiful as in the pictures.



Thanks guys!

Nepal has long been on the list of must-ride destinations and my trip with H+I Adventures was the perfect way to enjoy this beautiful, colourful country. From the moment we landed, the focus was simply on soaking up the experience and having fun! Mandil and team were nothing short of excellent and the trip format was an ideal way to experience everything from the foothills to the remote Mustang region. Huge thank you H+I Adventures!

Hands down the BEST mountain bike tour company in the world. H+I sets the standard for international mountain bike travel.

A top notch company with top notch staff. They go above and beyond to ensure you have the best possible experience. I booked my Nepal mountain bike trip with H+I and it was one of the best trips I've ever done. Here's to more adventures with H+I!

WOW - what a trip!! From the lush green hills surrounding Kathmandu to the dusty trails of the Mustang Valley, this ride has it all.


The rides are exhilarating and the scenery is to die for!! The overnight accommodation is ideal and the food is delicious.


We were lucky enough to be joined by H+I owners Euan & Cat on the ride, who along with our friendly guides Mandil, RJ & Nishant, they made this trip an unforgettable experience.


A big thank you to Nishant for lending me his special edition MTB in my hour of need !!!!


H+I are a fantastic friendly and professional company and I can highly recommend them

By far the BEST trip I’ve EVER done on two wheels!!!
From start to finish everyone at H+I took care of everything and made it just an EPIC journey and adventure. The riding was incredible and hugely rewarding, the scenery just breathtaking.



I made a lot of friends on the trip and it was a journey which will be deeply ingrained in my mind forever!!
Experiencing Nepalese life and seeing first-hand how friendly everyone is, experiencing food, sights and sounds from Kathmandu to the Mustang Valley was just truly EPIC!! I will definitely be doing more trips with H+I and will be ticking off lots from my bucket list in the process!!



I would just like to say a HUGE thanks to Euan, Cat, Mandil, RJ and Nishantshah. Those guys looked after us every step of the way and it was just epic fun all riding together, tearing up every downhill and riding at the limit (sometimes over it!) was what made the trip truly special to me.



A great challenge and a proper adventure. Can’t recommend H+I and Nepal enough!

Best MTB adventure trip of the many I've done through the years. The guys at H+I take you deep in the Mustang valley in Nepal..through hidden and nearly inaccesible trails where only a reduced and select group of bikers (mostly professional athletes) have ever ridden. Their knowledge of the terrain and their local guides are second to none and every last detail like food, lodging, logistics is meticulously planned to make a one of a lifetime experience. There was only one thing that I didn't like about this trip...When it ended!

I've traveled a lot around the world, but few places match Nepal. Especially the Himalayas! To ride in this environment was really awesome, and H+I with Mandil made sure the riding would be anything but boring! But this trip was about more than just the sensory experience and awesome riding, it was an adventure riding trough local villages, "high-fiving" local children as we rode trough, sampling local cuisines, and even learning about local customs and Nepalese Buddhism. Very much recommended for a holiday out of the ordinary!

I wish I could give Mandil and the team a 10 instead of a 5, I could not have asked for anything more and they went above and beyond the entire trip. The knowledge of the guides, their riding ability, professionalism and character were outstanding. I would be honored to ride, hang out with them anytime and hope to see them again in the future.

It was awesome and I hope to do it again. Thank you H+I for making it happen.

I had high expectations of this trip - they were met many times over. Each day provided something different, an outstanding view, an incredible ride, a new cultural experience. Each day was so intense, and yet so well planned. I've enjoyed a lot of amazing 'holidays', but this is one of the best and it will certainly be one of the most memorable.



The riding begins in a beautiful cottage high above Kathmandu - an oasis of calm after the noise and dust of the city. Days two and three offer some of the best riding - great single track, combined with the pleasure of riding through Nepali villages and paddy fields. But, already we were being shown some 'sights' - a buddhist stupa and the Durbar square in Bhaktapur.



An early morning flight took us to Phokara and a well deserved rest. The hotel is great and the rest welcome. Next day an even more dramatic flight took us to Jomsom and the lower Mustang. We were suddenly in the high Himalaya - it felt remote and wild. We experienced our first bridge crossing, and then three days of startling views and challenging single track. Each day absorbing in different ways, challenging riding, challenging situations and beautiful settings. Eventually our ride ended at Beni and a transfer back to Pokhara.



The riding was intense, fun and memorable. The cultural experiences were not added on, they were an intrinsic part of the trip. The guiding provided by Mandil and his assistant, RJ, was brilliant. They are skilful, knowledgeable, professional and continually smiling.



We followed this trip with a short trek. It was worth doing, and it was enjoyable, but it showed us how good a trip we'd experienced. Many of the villages on our trek were full of teahouses - the villages on our ride were 'real', full of normal villagers going about their lives. We had great views on our trek, but nothing like the views on the ride. We had great experiences on our trek, not least the experience of doing something on our own, but nothing like the shared experiences on our mtb ride.



It's nearly fifty years since I first hitch-hiked to Chamonix in 1969. I've had lots of amazing experiences each year since then, but this topped them all. An extraordinary holiday, well planned, well conceived and brilliantly led. Magic!

It's hard to find words to adequately convey both the substance and magic of this trip. The days of riding are sequenced in a way that maximize enjoyment and fitness, while upping the ante on scenic wonders in a continually jaw-dropping progression. Mandil and his assistant guide, RJ, were professional, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and inspiring; they helped us all to grow as travelers and mountain bikers.

Not only was the riding excellent from a cyclist's perspective, the cultural immersion was genuine. We weren't tourists on a bus staring out at locals- we were riding through the villages and daily lives of the Nepalese, sharing joyful moments with their children and learning about their customs, beliefs, cuisines, and lifestyles.

There is no way to pick a favorite moment when recalling this trip- each day brought us new wonders, rewards, and appreciation for living life to its fullest. This tour coordinates complex logistics in a way that no solo traveler could ever accomplish.

It was an incredibly good value, and I hope to return another year for more breath-taking Himalayan cycling with H+I.

Sitting at the Hotel Tibet decompressing from the awe-inspiring last nine days. I lost count after day 4.

The trip is exceptional: well planned, very well executed and stunning start to finish.
The guiding (c/o Mandil Pradhan) is a credit to the H+I team and the incredible crafting of the journey, the integration with local culture and the riding… well what can I say... it would just be more adjectives and superlatives!!!

I've done Guatemala, Utah, Azores and Slovenia over the past five years and this is tied for first place with Slovenia. An exceptional trip all-round. This is the mountain bikers' mountain bike trip of a lifetime.

H+I are the gurus of guiding! The trip to earthquake rattled Nepal was nothing short of epic, these guys know the country's they guide in because they have locals on the ground but also because they have the modern methods & systems to make it a special experience. I've booked again!

What a great once in a life time adventure and vacation. Not only I got to ride on a great bike trail with majestic views but to also experience the people, towns, and culture.

I highly recommend this trip

5 Stars

Set your rad meter to high and get on this trip. Right now Nepal needs you. Over the last 8 months the people of Nepal have endured earthquakes, fuel and gas shortages, yet still remain as steadfast as the Himalayas surrounding them. The spirit and heart of the Nepalese is something that we all need to experience, and what better than from the saddle of your bike with the amazing folks from H&I. Don't for a second hesitate to do this trip........it's that good!

I've always wanted to visit the Himalaya's and to have the opportunity to do it on a mountain bike only made this experience that much more amazing and memorable. From the moment we arrived, it was obvious we were in very capable hands. Mandil and his staff had all the details taken care of. The accommodations were excellent and exceeded my expectations. Each day of riding always seemed to better than the last, which is mind boggling in and of itself. Being able to ride through small villages high up in the Mustang valley and witness the culture of the people is priceless. Simply Incredible. Well done!

The experiences on this trip were nothing less than amazing. The tour strikes a perfect balance between travel comfort, adventure, riding challenges and culture emersion. The staff was amazing. The local guides are inspiring riders and Mandil is world class in his ability to organize a great trip and deliver excellent service along the way. If you have ever dreamed of seeing the Himalaya up close, and you enjoy riding a mountain bike, I don't think there's a better to experience this magical place!

Utterly amazing, from the pre-trip organisation to every last detail on the trip outstandingly put together. Mind blowing experience of a spell bounding country. Best way to have experienced Nepal. H+I's standards of trip logistics are second to none, we will definitely be booking another trip with you.

What an outstanding adventure, what brilliant riding, what fantastic guides, what seamless logistics...what more can I say!

From the great trails around beautifully ugly Kathmandu to the indescribable cultural experience of riding through the Himalayan communities. Great food, excellent accommodation, 2 amazing and 1 absolutely incredible internal flight, all transfers....one of the best and most perspective enhancing experiences of my life. Stop reading. Book. Go.

What can I say; everything in this trip was even better than my expectations- which were pretty high to start with.



The accommodation was great.

The culture was awesome.

There was so much food I don't think I finished a meal the whole time- even though the food was great.

The guides looked after everything, right down to which seat to sit on when we got on the plane to get the best view.



And the riding was AWESOME. Mustang was just another word so much more impressive than any of the videos or photos can show. Kathmandu had some great tracks and some great descents.



Was just 12 days of an incredible trip.

This was an awesome trip no questions about it. The logistics were seamless, the guides fantastic and the riding, oh boy the riding. Simply the best I've ever undertaken.

It's not for the feint hearted at times what with hairy jeep rides up mountain pass and some pretty interesting small plane flights but every heart stopping moment is replaced by an even better welcome at the other end.

Some of the climbs were tough esp at altitude but we acclimatised well and i would rate the 'big climb day' as one of my favorite days.

Accommodation and food were basic but warm and dry and everything we needed at the end of the day.



If you are looking for a mountain bike adventure not just a holiday then sign up. You wont regret taking this trip.



Thanks to the Team in Nepal, Mandil, Suraj, Arjay, plus the other support staff for an unforgettable time.

Best trip I have ever taken. The people, the food, the riding...all top notch. If you are on the fence about booking this trip, just do it - it is impossible not to love it. There is no other experience quite like it!

I promise, your heart will not be big enough to take in all the happiness this country and its people have to give. Riding though the Himalaya mountains and its villages was a double win situation. We had a blast riding our bikes and at the same time put huge smiles on peoples faces who were enjoying watching us having fun. Namaste Nepal, I'll be back.

I was genuinely surprised at how everything was better than what I had imagined. All the accommodation was brilliant especially in the Mustang valley considering it is so remote there. Some really great food too.

When it came to the riding the trails were awesome, the climbing was tough at altitude and my fitness was not the best in the group, but the guides did not make a big deal as long as you could keep moving and keeping some pace and it given the rest of the group the chance to take photos. When the trails came to pointing downwards though I had massive smiles on my face, looks of deep concentration and on a few occasions a face full of terror. All three of the guides were brilliant on a bike and that made for a lot of fun as you can really open it up and shred down the trails.

I am so glad I decided to book this holiday, a great group of people, not just the customers, the guides and the drivers and I would definitely like to ride with everyone again.

It was way more than expected...trails, people, guides, food, accommodations, culture...impossible to beat that....probably best way to describe it: I woke up every day with a huge smile on my face (and that at 6 in the morning)!!

I could never have imagined I would experience the best trip of my life! Shredding across landscapes I would only usually see in my wildest dreams! Being dipped into what can only be described as the most friendly and kind hearted country I have ever experienced! And to meet what can only be described as friends for life.... Sounds cheesy but 100% true! Was looked after from start to finish and felt priviladged to experience what I did. I wouldn't change a single day! This was more than just riding and culture; meeting best friends was a massive bonus.

All in all, our Nepalese experience ranked at number 1 for mountain biking and cultural experiences. The food was superb throughout and the guiding and logistics by H&I Adventures were near-perfect and seamless.

You will not be able to forget about this journey to one of the worlds most mountainous and exotic locals. From booking to arrival, logistics, food, bike repairs, accomodations, cultural interaction and of course mountain biking, everything was top notch. Mandel, Rocky, Snowmonkey and all the H & I staff ensured all went swimmingly. Nepal is such a gorgous and dramatic place as is but the combination of mountian biking makes it almost dreamlike. I cannot say enough good things about Nepal and the experience H & I provided. If your on the fence about this trip, just "book it". You will be joyful you did!

The trip went above and beyond anything i could have ever hoped to expect going on a tour like that. It ran very smoothly, the guides were fantastic. The food, locations, environment, people were all amazing, i doubt i could come up with any "real" suggestions to make the experience better.



The greatest experience on two wheels i could have ever imagined having.

I have to say I think the guide, Mandil really made the trip (along with Rocky, Snow Monkey, Robbie, and REM- yes these are real people...!) I thoroughly enjoyed their company (and humor!) and learned some great Nepali language and culture from them. They guided us through adventurous biking, insane plane rides, delicious food (way better than I was expecting!), unique accommodations, and amazing towns through the Himalayas and around Kathmandu. Nepal is such a unique place, I highly recommend it! The scenery is unreal, the culture is so rich and the people are incredibly friendly. Being able to experience on a bike made it even more rewarding!

This was my first guided mountain bike tour & it fully exceeded my expectations. The diversity in the biking from Kathmandu to Mustang was exciting & challenging, coupled with stunning scenery & unexpected adventure. I throughly enjoyed the Nepali culture, the delicious food & attempting to learn the language. The entire H&I Adventures staff, the comfy accommodations & the company of our new friends on & off trail really made this a trip to remember!

What can I say..... this was my first guided ride and from the very first email enquiry it all fell into place.

Catherine is an absolute gem and had all the answers to my questions with prompt and direct replies.

I'd recommend arriving at least a couple of days earlier and just settle into Kathmandu, it's amazing people and culture. Mandil even organised accommodation for me outside of the tour dates which was central &extremely comfortable. His local knowledge and rapport with all he comes in contact with is a must, things run smoothly.

Riding Kathmandu valley was a perfect start. The riding was a blast, nice flowy sections, technical climbs & descents.The Terrace house was inviting, comfortable and like home. We wanted for nothing.

This set the tone for the rest of the trip, each day was something new. The riding was a wicked, loved every minute. Pokhara, Jomsom, Kagbeni, Marpha and so many places in between and off to the side we didn't need to worry about a thing which enabled us to absorb as much as we could of the culture, history and the most humble and toughest breed of people on the planet.

And the riding, did I mention the riding.

I could go on for days about it!

If you are looking at these reviews to make a decision on whether to go or not go all I can say is 'DO IT'.

Mandil, thanks mate, look for forward to hitting some trails with you again.

Catherine and Euan, an absolute pleasure, you will see me for another ride, definitely.

Tough climbing & exhilarating down-hills, coupled with an immersion into a fascinating and amazing cultural, this trip has to be one of the most memorable vacations we have ever taken!!! Thank you Mandil and H&I Adventures for an experience that will never be forgotten.

Thank you H&I Adventures. We had the best time in Nepal. Epic scenery, rich culture, wonderful food, remote villages, historical cities, hot springs, great company. The mountain biking was thrilling and challenging and off the beaten track. A bit of everything from prayer flag strewn valleys and jungle to breathtaking Himalayan moonscapes. We would never have made it as far as Kagbeni without your extra help arranging bespoke travel arrangements for us so thank you all for making this trip of a lifetime possible for us.

What a great way to do a trip in Nepal! We did our share of sucking air on the high elevation climbs, but the trip is set up so well to acclimatize it wasn't such an issue. And the descents made those thin air climbs well worth it. We went lured by stories of awesome mountain biking in a beautiful place and those stories proved to be right on. But it wasn't just about great fun on mountain bikes. The cultural experiences added so much and made for such a full, well rounded trip. A trip of a lifetime for sure!

If you love the idea of riding some awesome trails in the Himalayas then this is a must. If you also love the thought of mixing this with a cultural experience unlike any other then even better. Every day is special in its own different way making this without a doubt one of the best adventure experiences you'll ever have.

Ride in the shadows of the Himilayas from rainforest to baron wastelands it feels like riding on mars. If you really want to see all that Nepal has to offer and I mean ALL book it!



The most amazing trip you will ever do!
