THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM

Why the Mustang Valley?

The Kingdom of Upper Mustang was once a forbidden destination and now offers an immense opportunity to see and embrace the untouched lifestyle of the local people, inspiring social practice and authentic religious and cultural aspects of their lives.

This mixed with unique landscapes creating natural Himalayan biking trails. The Upper Mustang is a ‘bucket list’ adventure for mountain bikers from all over the world.

WHAT’S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE

  • Western organiser with 30 years local experience
  • Top local hand picked guides chosen for their experience and talent as mountain bikers / guides
  • Top mechanic that knows how to make repairs under the most difficult remote situations (often the difference between riding on or the end of your tour)
  • Return domestic flights (in Nepal) included in the Experience Package
  • Hand picked accommodation for authentic experience
  • Safe and reliable van for transportation
  • Best available fully suspension mountain bikes
  • Cultural background and local stories that enrich the experience
  • Local staff with contacts that can deal with situations and outcomes that make a difference to a tour

Why Nepal

Matthew Stewart talks with his uncle Peter Stewart about the long family history and association with Nepal and the inspiration for our Nepal Experiences Not Felt Possible

Experience Not Felt Possible

What is an Experience Not Felt Possible? We believe there needs to be more gained than ‘reaching a goal’ – the memories you make and the person you become on the journey is what really matters.

To achieve this, we believe it’s important to create an experience that fulfils the following criteria:

  • Meaning – the experience has to mean something to you personally
  • Sacrifice – the experience involves giving up something in your life
  • Acquisition – you need to learn a new skill or achieve a new level of fitness
  • Giving – there needs to be component of helping others
  • New Setting –  it’s about going to places you have only dreamed of

Our belief is that when you create an experience that fulfils the above criteria, it will become a memory that lasts forever.
