The Upper Mustang Motorbike Tour provides motorbikers with an excellent opportunity to explore the scenic countryside of Nepal and witness the breathtaking landscapes of the Upper Mustang region. This tour is designed for motorbikers who dream of turning every challenge into an adventure. Driving in Nepal is not straightforward, and the geographical structure and weather add to the challenges on the road. Nepal Excursion's motorbike tour to Mustang is planned through the scenic routes, and you will witness the natural beauty along the drive to Upper Mustang.

We recommend this tour for experienced motorbikers. The Upper Mustang Motorbike Tour begins in Kathmandu and follows the Prithvi Highway. During the ride, you'll enjoy stunning views of the Himalayas and picturesque landmarks of the countryside. Passing through small local villages by the Trishuli River promises to be an exciting adventure. However, driving on the Prithvi Highway presents significant challenges, as local drivers tend to drive very fast, requiring you to be both experienced and cautious. The main risks of this trip occur during the drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara and up to Marfa, particularly as you approach Marfa from Beni, where you must navigate through landslide-prone areas.

Upper Mustang Motorbike Tour Highlights

The major attractions of the Upper Mustang Motorbike Tour include breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural experiences. An exciting and scenic drive takes you to the forbidden Kingdom of Upper Mustang, where you can explore ancient monasteries, immerse yourself in Tibetan culture, and admire the stunning canyon of the Kaligandaki River.

Best time for the Upper Mustang motorbike tour

May through October is the best time to plan the Upper Mustang motorcycle tour. During this period, the scenery in Upper Mustang is stunning. Temperature-wise, it is ideal for any adventure trip in Mustang. However, you should prepare for rain during your drive to Pokhara and until you reach Marfa. You won't have to worry about rain in Marfa, which is in Nepal's trans-Himalaya zone.

Upper Mustang Motorbike Tour Cost

Depending on the package you select from your tour operator, the price of the motorcycle tour to Upper Mustang varies.
