Mountain biking means climbing a mountain with
the help of a bike. Among the indian adventure
tour options, himalayas is the best choice for
mountain biking including ladakh, himachal pradesh
and uttaranchal. Himalayas mountain biking provides
a variety of choices from introductory biking
to ultimate challenge. One can see the most
exotic sights of himalayas through mountian
biking.
AREAS OF OPERATION/TIME
OF THE YEAR
Due to the number of options available, you
may choose your region of travel with the month
you are planning your trip for.
Ladakh
/ Nubra / Zanskar / Changthang / Kinnaur / Lahaul
/ Spiti
June-end
September
Stark, arid and with average altitudes varying
between 9,000-13,000 feet above sea level, these
areas provide a region for travel when the rest
of India is under umbrellas due to the monsoons.
Being in a Trans-Himalayan belt, these months
provide opportunities for high altitude trekking,
mountain biking, self-contained jeep safaris,
river rafting and an excellent insight into
the Buddhist and tribal cultures that prevails
in the remote monasteries and villages, still
pretty much intact from the modern world.

Dharamsala/Chamba/Kangra/Kullu
May/June, October/November
These areas provide trekking in mild alpine
terrain, along with some demanding routes. Dharamsala
is a base for Tibetan refugees in India and
is the start of some of the best treks in the
region, crossing over the high Dhauladhar and
Pirpanjal ranges into adjoining valleys. You
could be following a herd of thousands of sheep
over the high passes alongwith nomadic shepherd
tribes, the "gaddis". Click

Garhwal & Kumaon Himalaya (Uttaranchal)
May - November
Described by the early Himalayan explorers as
the most beautiful part of the Himalaya, this
area offers opportunities for travelers looking
for that little bit more. A lesser traveled
region, and a haven for trekkers and paddlers
alike, this region will give you an experience
which will not have very many rivals. We have
our rafting bases in this region for ten months
of the year. Click

Sikkim/Darjeeling/Assam/Arunachal Pradesh
April-June,October-February
Views of Kanchendzonga are brilliant along all
routes in Darjeeling and Sikkim while the state
of Arunachal Pradesh offers culture with a difference,
tribesmen in finery, remote monasteries and
a very different face to India. Visit Bomdila
and Tawang, the famous Kaziranga sanctuary in
Assam, drive through the quaint settlements
of Ziro and Daporijo or float and angle on the
Kameng river. Some of the wilder rivers in India
flow through this state and Aquaterra has the
distinction of all guides having been on the
major river descents the state has to offer.
