Adventure Tourism in Nepal has usually meant climbing, trekking and white river rafting. Another form of adventure tourism which gives you the opportunity to fit all these in while you move across the country at your own pace is mountain biking. Nepal offers some of the finest bike trails in the world and is rapidly gaining recognition for this. Millions of tracks amidst stunning mountain scenery, breath-taking descents and endless single-tracks make Nepal a mountain biker's paradise. Nothing can be as adventurous as wandering through the hills and trails of Nepal, taking in the sights of the towns and villages, terraced paddy fields and gurgling streams.

The Kathmandu valley is like a conduit for all of Nepal. Here visitors will find a virtual melting pot of cultures from all over the country. Originally, the valley was divided into three kingdoms, Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Patan. These three cities have fused together bringing the valley a rich assortment of temples, bazaars, artisans and their wares. A day trip to each just scratches the surface on the wealth of what visitors have on hand to explore and enjoy.
