8 Day Itinerary

Day 1: Kathmandu 1400m
Once you arrive at Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport we will pick you up directly from the airport and transfer you to your hotel. Amidst all the chaos lies ancient stories of warriors, rivaling dynasties and great spiritual masters. This legendary capital city is home to an eclectic mix of people, shops, restaurants, temples, stupas, myths and legends! *Remember usually flights are overnight so you should allow an extra day for the journey to Kathmandu.

Day 2 Syabru Besi 1400m
Familiarisation with the bikes and Nepali riding style. We ride north along the Trishuli River on a jeep track towards the Chinese border. Road conditions will be a mixture of paved and unpaved with some sandy sections. Syabru Besi is a small mountain village sat near to Gosaikunda and below Dhunche

Day 3 Gatlang 2337m
Today we cross mountain passes near the Tibetan border. Gatlang is mainly a Tamang settlement, an ethnicity which has strong roots in Tibet. The village is very traditional and daily life involves looking after the herds of yaks and sheep and subsistence farming.

Day 4 Gatlang 2337m
In the morning we wake up to a mighty view of Langtang Lirung* (7227m). We ride on the local jeep tracks through alpine forests up to Pangsang pass which affords superb mountain views of peaks such as Ganesh Himal*.

*Weather permitting

We retrace our route to Nuwakot. The town sits in a valley lower than Kathmandu. The old fort historically was a crucial trading point for Malla Kings of the Valley.
