THE TRUE HIMALAYAN SINGLETRACK HOLIDAY; THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAILS IN THE WORLD

Ever thought it would be possible to ride your bike form the top of a Himalayan peak? How about mule shuttles?

Sounds like every mountain bikers dream?

During Bike Altitude’s Himalayan single track adventure, the tour of the Annapurna, you can be one of the lucky few to ride in the world’s highest mountain range, the Himalayas. Our base will be at the foot of the 10th highest mountain in the world, the Annapurna (8,091m) and we will spend 14 days riding some of the world’s best and least well-known mountain bike single tracks. To let us make the most of the local riding, the Annapurna mountain bike holiday is fully catered, all-inclusive.

Riding down some of the worlds highest single tracks is hard work; that’s why the local guides supply mules to carry your bikes up these picturesque mountains. Obviously if you don’ want to take advantage of this wonderfully original way of shuttling enduro mountain bike tracks your don’ have to, there’s plenty of climbing to be done as well!

Discover not only the amazing single track to be ridden in Nepal, but explore the local customs and cultures in the numerous visits that our guides offer. Chill out by the lake on the rest day; or for the more sporting; take your bike and go explore. What are you waiting for; stop dreaming, start riding on what is surely to be a trip of a lifetime.
