This short supported ride links Chitwan, Pokhara, and Bandipur on mixed highway and dirt, with lodge or hotel nights rather than a remote expedition. You get jungle-edge roads, lakeside riding, and a hill-town finish. A supported bike, Chitwan, Pokhara, and Bandipur are enough to feel Nepali roads.
Helmets, layers, and a gravel brief come before the first throttle day. The last highway sector returns you to Kathmandu. A lakeside night and a hill-town dawn sit between the jungle and the highway home.
Before the first throttle day, our office team walks you through the Enfield 350 test ride and the unwritten highway codes on the Tribhuvan road via Daman and Hetauda. You'll ride to Chitwan with luggage in the support van, then take the canoe, jeep safari, jungle walk, and Tharu evening that we book with the lodge.
We'll hold the Pokhara lakeside night and the Bandipur boutique stay so the Phewa morning and the Newari ridge sit between highway days. Your guide shares the next fuel and hotel plan each evening on this sealed highway loop.
Our team will be present at TIA to welcome and transfer you through our private van to your hotel in Kathmandu. Take a refreshing shower and explore the area around the hotel. Once all our bikers are gathered in the city, our guide will give you a brief about our short motorbike tour in Nepal program, meals, and travel days.
You can do some retail therapy if you like, after which we will meet our beautiful Royal Enfield classic 350 and take a small test ride around. Rest your bodies, for we have a long, exciting ride to do tomorrow.
Our short motorbike tour in Nepal will commence very early in the morning with an exciting journey towards the southwest of Kathmandu along the Tribhuvan Rajpath (Highway). Instead of a shortcut and more direct approach, we have deliberately chosen the longer and more intricate route that is splendidly scenic. Along with an extra dose of adrenaline, you will also be able to breathe in the greenery of the Nepali hills.
From Kathmandu, we will travel towards the velvety hilly entrance of Nagdhunga. The long tarmac road will be very peaceful now, with only friendly passersby sharing a warm Namaste.
After an action-packed tour, we have an action-packed activity today in Nepal’s first National Park, Chitwan. Since spotting the wonderful animals of the park will be maximum in the early morning hours, we will also start our action early and go on a big game search in an off-road jeep for around 4 hours.
We may see crocodiles, deer, rhinoceros, bears, peacocks, monkeys, and maybe, who knows, the royal creature: Bengal Tiger. We will also visit the elephant farm and play with the very naughty but adorable elephant babies.
In the afternoon, we will also canoe down the Rapti River, which is amazingly made from a single tree trunk. There will be a high chance of seeing the crocodiles lying on the banks, along with some marvelous aquatic birds.
After a full, jam-packed one-day Chitwan tour, we are now ready to get on our trusty ride once more and head to yet another very gorgeous Nepali city of Pokhara. From the hot Terai air of Chitwan, by the end of the day, we will be breathing in the coolest Himalayan breeze of Pokhara.
But first, another royal Highway of Nepal, the excellent Prithvi road, will carry us on comfortably from Narayanghat, Bharatpur, and Tandi to Muglin. The Kathmandu Pokhara Highway will be our next companion, leading the way beside the Marshyangdi and Seti Rivers to Pokhara, the premium city that hosts three of the 8000 m high Himalayas, including Annapurna.
Today is going to be one of the most remarkable days on our short motorbike tour in Nepal. Bright and early, we will set out on our foot to hike the 1600 m elevated green slope of Sarangkot Hill to see the Himalayan behemoths of Manaslu, Dhaulagiri, Lamjung, Fishtail, and Annapurna.
Then, calculating the available time, we can go on to discover Bindhyabasini Temple, Seti Gorge, Davis Falls, and the Tibetan Refugee Camp. Or, we can simply take a one-hour boat ride over the beautiful waters of Lake Phewa that reflect the Fishtail reflection on its glass-like surface.
After we see Pokhara, it's time to give continuity to our short motorbike tour in Nepal with a journey towards Bandipur. The Prithvi Highway this time will carry us onward through Dumre to the town that lies like a silk scarf over the cliff.
It is time to bring our short motorbike tour in Nepal to a close with a long ride towards Kathmandu. The Prithvi Highway will once again lead the way, and shortly we will see the pious Manakamana Temple standing atop a 1300 m green velvety hill.
The Trishuli Valley will then whisk us further towards Thankot and then Kirtipur before we are back in the chaotic vibe of Kathmandu. In the evening, enjoy a farewell dinner hosted by our team at a local restaurant, accompanied by a Nepalese cultural dance performance.
Breakfast and then hotel check-out, after which our private drop-off vehicle will collect you from your accommodation towards TIA for your onward flight to your sweet home.
Fly into Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu unless the itinerary uses another regional hub. Airport or hotel pickup can be arranged when you share arrival details ahead of travel.
Briefings cover road or domestic travel to the trailhead. Build buffer time before onward international flights in case mountain weather shifts the schedule.
Twin or double rooms in a comfortable Kathmandu hotel cover your first nights and your return from the trail, with breakfast on those city stays when included in the package. Briefings happen at the hotel, and airport collection from Tribhuvan is available when flight times are shared in advance.
Family-run teahouses or lodges line the route with twin beds and a shared dining room. Rooms get simpler and colder as you climb, with shared bathrooms common at higher villages. Hot water, Wi-Fi, and charging are paid at the lodge when offered.
Stable trekking weather most often falls in pre-monsoon spring and post-monsoon autumn. Monsoon cloud sits lower on the hills while winter brings ice on steps above village level.
If your dates sit in winter or monsoon, pack rain and cold layers and accept that flight or pass days may move by a day when safety requires it. Weather can shift daily plans, so your guide keeps a steady pace with regular breaks.
You should be comfortable walking several hours a day on uneven paths with a daypack, including steady uphill sections as you gain height. Hill training and longer weekend walks in the months before travel help your legs and lungs on uphill trail days.
Hill training, stair climbing, and longer weekend hikes in the months before travel help your legs and lungs, even when acclimatisation days are built into the route. Break in boots before you fly and carry a light daypack on practice walks.
Guided trekking with licensed leaders, lodge nights on the trail, meals as described for walking days, and permits for the regions crossed are included when they are part of this trip. Domestic flights, porters, and airport transfers apply only when they are part of this trip.
Domestic flights, road transfers, porter support, and airport transfers apply only when they are part of this trip. Permits for the regions you cross are arranged in Kathmandu or Pokhara when included.
International flights to Nepal, visa fees, compulsory travel insurance, personal trekking clothing, snacks and drinks outside included meals, and tips for crew are not covered. Hot showers, Wi-Fi, and battery charging in lodges are usually paid locally when offered.
Charges for hot showers, Wi-Fi, or battery charging in lodges are paid locally when offered unless your trip notes say otherwise. International flights, visa fees, and personal insurance stay outside the trek package.
Hotel meet in Thamel is typical; send flight numbers so pickup can meet you at the international terminal. Allow a little extra time after the trek before international flights home in case mountain roads or flights move.
Rest day buffer after the trek helps if Lukla or helicopter sectors slip by a day. Trail conditions are checked each morning before the group moves.
Guides set a steady pace and watch for headache, nausea, or dizziness as you gain height. Your crew would rather wait for a safe window than rush marginal weather.
Tell your guide early if symptoms appear so tomorrow's stage can shorten or descent can start before conditions worsen. Thamel hotels are the usual meet point; drivers need flight numbers to meet you at the international terminal.
Jeep or bus days to the remote trailhead are arranged when they are part of your package. Your guide confirms departure times at briefing.
Motion sickness medicine helps on winding mountain roads. Shoulder weeks need an honest weather call before high passes or dawn viewpoints.
National park or restricted-area permits apply depending on the valleys you cross. The team arranges paperwork in Kathmandu or Pokhara when you provide passport copies and trek dates.
Keep copies in your daypack for checkpoint stops. Your crew would rather wait for a safe window than rush marginal weather.
Families join when children can manage the daily hours and terrain on this specific route. Pace and daily hours can be adjusted on private departures, though that may extend the calendar.
Ask our Kathmandu team if you are planning with younger walkers. Private departures can shorten daily hours, though that may add a day or two to the calendar.
Comprehensive travel insurance that covers trekking to the highest altitude on your itinerary, medical evacuation, and helicopter rescue when applicable is essential. Many standard policies exclude high altitude by name.
Read the wording before you travel so you can adjust cover if trekking above 5,000 metres is not named. Many standard policies exclude high altitude by name, so read the wording before you fly.
