Chill Out Ride – 8 Days

An ideal loop that comprises the best towns of Nepal catering diverse highlights

Justifying the name of the trip, “Chill out Ride” is one of our most fascinating two-wheeler trips that circumambulates Nepal’s most popular urban destinations. During the circumnavigation the ride at times stretches along the thrilling serpentine Highway at other times speed away along the straight roads of lowland plains. With our gear, machine and our mates, we exit out on our Royal Enfield Bikes from the buzz of Kathmandu to serene and peaceful Bandipur, a typical Newari Village that caters amazing view dominated by Himalayas to its north. Making our way past quaint villages and highway towns, with the backdrop of snowy Himalayan peaks, we head towards Pokhara. Lying on the banks of Fewa Lake, beneath the shadow of the Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and the Machhapuchre (Fishtail) Peak, Pokhara is one of the most favored destinations in Nepal. Ride to the highlighted landmarks of Pokhara on your bikes. After a day in Pokhara we drive to Tansen, the summer resort of central Nepal. The most thrilling section of the ride is between Pokhara and Tansen, which involves extremely snaky road with high cliffs up and down the road at 180 degrees. From Tansen we head towards Lord Buddha’s birthplace, Lumbini. After a spiritual experience, the wilderness of Chitwan beckons and we head forth to Chitwan National Park for some fun and frolic. Obviously, the culture of Tharus apart from mild jungle activities will entertain you in Chitwan. With our minds filled with delightful memories we make the final leg of the journey and return to Kathmandu.
