Mountain Biking in the Tamang Heritage Trails of Rasuwa, Langtang

One of the nearest destinations from Kathmandu, Langtang, Rasuwa, is one of the most beautiful destination Nepal has to offer.

Its easy access, close proximity to the capital and unparalleled beauty of majestic mountains dotted with quaint villages rich in culture makes it a nature lover’s delight.

The mountain bike race is the first of its kind in a region that has remained untouched for decades. Tourism for Rural Poverty Alleviation Program (TRPAP) has been a frontrunner at using a ‘hands on approach’ to transform tourism as a proactive force to bring about a change. Himalaya Expeditions is also guided by the same principle “development through tourism”.
