|
| Arriving into Kathmandu, you will cover approximately 515kms over the following 2 week challenge. Biking around the valley offers a great way to escape the city and connect with the local people and landscape. You will make contact with centuries-old Buddhist culture, fresh mountain air, nature trails and of course the greatest range of snow-capped peaks in the world including Mt. Everest. Leaving Nepal’s capital you head for Nagarjuna Forest, home to many ancient yogic caves before heading on to Shivapuri National Park. Here you can enjoy the serenity of Nagi Gompa Monastery, home to over 100 practicing Buddhist nuns. Further on in your journey your cultural adventure continues at Namo Buddha – the site of Buddha’s self-sacrifice. |
