Deosai Biking Tours

Bicycling on the winding roads of the Himalaya, Karakoram, and Hindukush valleys would heighten your experience as you will have an occasion of a tidy uphill paddling and then abruptly ride downhill, passing through alpine forests, open valleys, along the rivers and lakes and lush meadows. Meet friendly people on the way as you may be offered a local taste of tea and perhaps food. We can arrange your bicycle tour with a van to follow you so that you may climb aboard the vehicle in case you are tired or the weather disallows you to continue bicycling.

This trek is for real mountain bike freaks, physically well-prepared people! Experience in mountain biking is a must.
