Annapunra Circuit by Mountain Bike
 This
extraordinary bike trip takes you to some of the most beautiful
places in the world.
There are lowland villages, dense oak forests, deep gorges, lovely
isolated hamlets, and the mighty high mountains.
Where do we bike? And there are friendly people, awesome cultures,
lavishly adorned monasteries, wild flowers, animals and birds. So
many things you may have rarely imagined.
Annapurna Circuit Bike Tour even more special with a side trip to Tilicho
lake they say it is the worlds highest located fresh water lake
but we visit simply for its beauty.
 We start biking from
lowland paddy fields, steadily gain altitude as we pass through oak
and pine forests that eventually give way to the high desert country
at Manang (3579m) and the descent is equally amazing and varied.
Strenuous biking is well rewarded at both low and high altitudes, on
the approach to the Thorung La (17,769 ft) as well as during the
descent from it.
Not recommended for beginners as well as for luxury seekers! This
is where, sometimes, your bike will be riding you.
