Lhasa-Kathmandu mountain bike tour

    The most challenging biking tour in the world, this epic mountain biking adventure across ‘The Roof of the World’ covers a distance over 1,100 kilometers from the Tibetan capital Lhasa to Kathmandu, crossing six high passes over 5000 meters. To make this trip even more adventurous, we have incorporated a four-days round trip away from the main Lhasa, the heart of Tibet is dotted with world-renowned heritage sites and cultural relics, almost all of which are located at a walking distance. Take Jokhang temple, for example, it is considered to be the holiest man-made architecture in Tibet. Others landmarks are the Potala Palace, the Dalai Lama's former winter residence and monasteries, Norbu Lingkha, the Dalai Lama’s summer residence, and Ramoche temple. Many important Gelukpa monasteries such as Sera and Drepung are located in areas surrounding Lhasa. the north base camp of Mt. Everest. Another brilliant part of this trip is the mind-blowing descent of 4,600 meters from the 5,050 meters high Thang La pass. We call it the world’s longest downhill The trip is supported by a Nepalese camping crew, a mountain bike guide, and a professional local Tibetan guide. The entire journey will be supported by a 4WD Land Cruiser and a support truck.
