Tilicho Lake mountain biking tour in Annapurna, Nepal

I had the most incredible experience touring the Annapurnas by mountain bike, and I cannot recommend this team highly enough. Our guide Loxman was exceptional , incredibly knowledgeable about Nepal, the mountains and the culture. Each morning he gave a clear daily briefing, and before every technical section he stopped to explain the terrain and what to expect. I always felt supported and well-guided. The porters were unbelievably strong, kind, and always ready to help with anything. Jagan handled the booking, customized the itinerary (ensuring we are properly acclimatized), and arranged all the logistics and transport , even in Kathmandu. When my bike bag was lost by the airline, he stepped in to help, making what could have been a stressful situation completely manageable. And to top it all off, they even surprised me with a birthday cake , such a thoughtful and memorable gesture! If you're considering a mountain biking adventure in Nepal, look no further. This team is professional, caring, and truly committed to making your trip unforgettable. Highly, highly recommended! 🚵‍♀️🇳🇵✨

The team at PMBA were great and had plenty of experience running these multi day MTB adventures They responded quickly to negative events such as crashes and client sickness and ensured it didn't impact the trip for others. Safety was always a priority with regular briefing on road and traffic condition. The team didn't push you beyond your ability and were happy to hike a bike when the track got too narly All in All a great adventure, definitely not easy but very rewarding If your in Pokhara and want to do some MTB rides definetly looks these guys up

Last April, three of us biked the Annapurna Circuit from Jagat via Thorung-La Pass to Jomsom. The highlight of course was reaching the Thorang-La Pass at 5416 meters. Our tour leader Laxman Sunar was a suburb guide. We were all over 60 years old and enjoyed every part of it. Happy to recommend Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventure.

Myself and a friend rode with Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventures for a total of 7 days in 2018. We are both experienced mountain bikers and were searching for as much single track as possible. From the first email with Jagan this company was very professional and knowledgeable; they are truely passionate about mountain biking. We rode: Kathmandu, Pokhara X 2 (different trails), and from Jomsom to Thorang La Pass. The highlight by far was the Annapurna circuit area - beautiful single track. The biggest positive I can say about this company is that they are flexible to your needs. They picked me up at the Kathmandu airport and dropped me off when the trip was done. I was with my wife but she wasn't planning on riding bikes. They took care of her as well and made sure she was included in any shared meals or vehicle transfers. As we got riding we wanted to adjust the itinerary and Jagan and his crew made it happen no problem. They really went above and beyond to make our trip custom to our needs and riding level and ensure we had a good time no matter what. The bikes themselves were also good quality. We had a few minor mechanical issues along the way but the team made sure to solve the problems and keep the trip running smoothly. My friend and I both rode new Giant Trance's and were comfortable. The vehicle we rode in was also safe and reliable and the staff members were a treat to interact with. We can't say enough good things about the staff, they were all very friendly and helpful. You can tell this group is passionate about cycling and promoting the sport in Nepal. I would not hesitate to ride with Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventures again. They are great people, they have some of the best gear in Nepal, and they know their way around the various regions to get you to the type of trails YOU want to ride. I look forward to meeting with them again in the future and seeing how the company has grown and expanded. Contact Jagan and go ride your bike! Ride on.

I had an excellent support from Jagan in every aspect of my mountain biking adventure in the Annapurna region. The information and advices I was given before deciding became true and important. I really appreciate the time Jagan spent with me before I did the decision. And more important, that he did not push me to do anything beyond my capabilities. The bike they prepared for me worked seamlessly during the 7 days my adventure required. They put new brake disks, brake pads and tires. They provided me with a set of tools also. I rided from Beni to just above Muktinath in four days. From there it took me three days to arrive in Besi Sahar. The route itself is amazing, but is not for the inexperienced. Both mountain biking skills and mountainering skills are neccesary for this route. The mud, the step and the rocks made it impossible to ride the bicicle during large part of the uphill, therefore you need to push it for hours some days. A rain jacket, thin gloves and thin hut where important to avoid cold around the Torungh La pass. All in all, is a great experience for those who love mountain and mountain biking.

NAMASTE! We came to Nepal to ride the Anapurna circuit and we decided to rent bicycles from Pokhara MTBAdventure. The cost of rental was comparable to airplane bike-transportation fee, but it was much more convenient to get the bikes there in Pokhara. I was negotiating everything with Jagan about a month before we arrived. Finally, he delivered the bicycles, hired porters and organised required documents - everything was perfectly done and Jagan occured to be a very cool guy, Although we have been riding for 9 days in very demanding terrain, the bikes have done the job preety well, we didn't have any serious issues during the tour. Also the porters, who took care about our backpacks, were very helpful and friendly. All in all, it was an unforgetable tour in beatiful Himalayas. Thank you Jagan and Pokhara MTBAdventure team for making it possible!

Me and a friend spent 14 days with Pokhara Mountain biking Adventure. We rode around Kathmandu, Pokhara and parts of the Annapurna circuit up to an altitude of around 4300m, just below Thorong Pass, and back down to Beni. We took our own bikes from the UK, although PMB had bikes for hire. Make sure you bring spares. If you run anything not very standard 5 years ago, there isn't a postal system in Nepal so they wont have it! The staff were welcoming and friendly, knowledgeable of the areas and flexible with plans so could do all we wanted to. We were shown the best places to eat, accommodation was always comfortable and exceeded expectations. The organisation was slick, everything was sorted out for us. All we had to do was ride our bikes on some of the best trails In the world. Beware the Shawl lady in Muktinath, she has no mercy and you won't leave the town until you have a shawl for every occasion. If you sunbathe at 3000+m you are going to be very burnt even in 20minutes, also around the circuit If in doubt of what to eat, have a yak burger. I would like to say a big thank you, to Dhan and Jagan and all the rest of the staff at PMB who I would call my friends, and can't wait to see again. Sam W

Best bike shop in Nepal!! From start to finish, the service was incredible. Jagan and Anil supported me through the entire process, from bike rental to transportation help, route suggestions, and general advice. I did the Annapurna Circuit solo, and I was a bit nervous heading into it alone. Jagan and Anil were super supportive throughout and made me feel safe, comfortable, and well-prepared the entire time. I stayed in touch with them throughout my 8 day ride and they were always quick to respond and genuinely helpful the whole way through. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the bikes. I had no issues at all with my bike over the 8-day rental. I will definitely come back again!!

I have incredible great adventure with Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventure (Nepal Mountain Bike). Specifically with Dhan & Mangal on Annapurna Mountain Biking circuit, this May 2024. Jagan, who is the boss has organize my trip right after my 15 days of EBC trek, to follow right after my trek. And because of my date, I was alone with Dhan, the guide and Mangal the porter. The company which also has a bicycle store front shop in the center of Pohkara, is super convenient to do cycling in that region. I felt so confident of the company and taken care of completely. Not to elaborate on how wonderful the trip was in the 15 days Mountain biking trip I just have, I can highly recommend how if you like to undertake a hassle free cycling adventure in that region, you should email to Jagan any question of your plan. I can vouch for them, for they are professional team and very caring to make the best of your holiday adventure in Nepal.

I have just completed the Annapurna circuit MTB ride with Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventures and it was the most incredible trip. Well organised the whole way, the team were just incredible, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We were in a group of 12 most hired bikes which were reliable and made things easy not having to bring my own. The group had people that hadn't ridden MTBs and they completed the ride, so if your up for an adventure of lifetime go for it, you won't regret it.

We set off for a 15-day adventure on two steel frame mountain bikes rented from Pokhara Mountain Bike Adventure. The bikes had hydraulic discs brakes, 60mm tyres, one chainring in the front and a big cassette in the back - perfect fit for the muddy, stony, icy and steep route of the Annapurna Circuit. The service was professional and the staff very friendly and helpful. Santa and Jagan even provided us with additional spare tubes on the way, as two were not enough due to our reckless riding. 100% recommended.
