MEET THE JOURNEY
If you're

ready to add more thrill to your riding life
Nepal's Hilltop Discovery will get your juices going.
It's a 1200 + km loop connecting some of Nepal’s finest hilltop stations. While heading out to the East we will return back from the West cutting across Nepal’s lush green midhills, sailing down to the steaming lowlands of the Terai and Chitwan National Park.
It combines everything Nepal has to offer: twisty bends, quieter roads, changing altitudes (2,500 m max), steep descents, offroad, captivating views, charming people, ancient cultures, and some serious wildlife along the way. This ride is classified as primarily moderate, with some challenges that will provoke your comfort zone. You require resilience and a quench of boldness as you undoubtedly encounter a number of first-time-evers on this dynamic ride.
This ride is our attempt to combine challenging women's adventure riding with rewarding community encounters as an integral part of your blissful riding experience.
INFINITE DISCOVERIES
A JOURNEY THAT FUELS YOUR SOUL
SCRAMBLING THE HILLTOPS
Nepal is jam-packed with summits. Some need axes and crampons to reach, others you can ride up to and marvel at the dazzling landscape from a safe distance. And that’s where we’re going.
As you ride on, you will quickly notice how your confidence starts building with the help of the entire group. And by the time you come back to where you started you will no longer be the same rider you were when you left.
A JOURNEY THAT FUELS YOUR SOUL
RELISHING LOCAL COMPANY
Our aim is to weave local encounters, culture, and traditions into our ride that will touch your soul. Meeting the locals, particularly women, is one of the most remarkable aspects of our journeys in Nepal.
We ensure you have many occasions to meet and socialize with women and their communities as we ride along.
Exchanges that will grant you valuable insights worth more than memories.
A JOURNEY THAT FUELS YOUR SOUL
ENJOYING WOMEN CAMARADERIE
Riding in a team of women is a unique experience. For many, it’s more authentic and encouraging as we cheer each other on while breaking through limiting disbeliefs and fears along the road.
And they exist for most of us.
But strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming those things you think you can’t. And celebrating it together.
