About The Trip

Though comparatively to the trans Himalayan biking this trip is much easier with less passes and less per day distance coverage, but it gives one of the best inside into the villages and hills with meadows, jungles orchids and huge rivers. You will visit to remote villages still un-aware of the modern world and forests till untouched. The entire area is dotted with very ancient small religious shrines and temples. Simple people with smiling faces will happily offer you spring water and fresh apple from their orchids. Try the wild trout fish for dinner in Tirthan valley. Some of the areas are very photogenic so be with a nice and small camera all the time. Interaction with village people is all the way when ever one comes after miles and days.
