DETAILS
Mountain biking in the winter season is a great activity for the adventure loving people. In winter heavy snow falls and the whole region is packed with white blanket. Sometimes roads are blocked also. But the roads are often cleared by the local authorities like PWD. So the bycycling can be done easily in the lower parts of the valley. In the winter there is not much hustle and bustle on the roads. So one can bike around and explore on his bike with ease. For that one has to approach to the snow camp in seobagh, which is near to the snow range and is also connected to the main highway. From the base camp one can take the bycycle and go to the recommended tracks with proper gear and information. It is good to trek on bycycle because you can see the surrounding more perfectly than travelling by a vehicle. Cycling in the snow covered mountain routes is absolutly a lifetime experience. Cycling in the winter gives you warmth from cold and filters your lungs without any sweat or hard work. Mountain biking is good sport which makes your health better with the fun of riding bike in the Himalayas. During the mountain biking expedetion the camp will be held near snow line or in between the snow. So one can enjoy snow even in the base camp. To enjoy precisely the person should have proper winter gear (warm jackets,lowers, glubs etc.) as well as the mountain biking gear. The gear should be properly brought because of the safety of the person. All and all one should come and enjoy the winter in the lap of Himalaya.
