The most challenging biking tour in the world, this epic mountain biking adventure across 'The Roof of the World' covers a distance over 1,100 kilometers from the Tibetan capital Lhasa to Kathmandu, the heart of Nepal, crossing six high passes over 5000 meters. To make this trip even more adventurous, we have incorporated a four-days round trip away from the main Lhasa - Kathmandu road, to visit Rongbuk Monastery and the north base camp of Mt. Everest. Another brilliant part of this trip is the mind-blowing descent of 4,600 meters from the 5,050 metre high Thang La pass. We call it the world's longest downhill The trip is supported by a Nepalese camping crew, a mountain bike guide and a professional local Tibetan guide. The entire journey will be supported by a 4WD Toyota Land Cruiser and a support truck. We will spend 4 nights in Lhasa with the attraction of The Potala Palace and the Jokhang Temple and a free day for self exploration in Lhasa.

It was a pleasure to deal with Subin Thakuri, the agency's owner and leader. A young and bright Nepali I am proud to call a friend.
The Kangchenjunga trek I did with UAT was fabulous, thanks to my fantastic and dedicated guide Ang Phuri and his competent and also dedicated team of porters and cook. These guys bent over backward and went way beyond the call of duty to make sure I was alright at all times.
The Kangchenjunga region offers so much from great views of Himalayan giants to unmatched bio-diversity, wonderful inhabitants, fascinating culture and relatively few tourists, unlike the Everest or Annapurna treks that I also did in the past and who are very crowded these days. Kangchenjunga is the Himalaya's best kept secret, eastern Nepal is relatively isolated, some say it's like Nepal was in the early seventies before trekking became very popular, so go see it before it becomes as popular and crowded as Everest!
Not a day goes by without some pictures of Kangchenjunga appearing in my head, making me wish to come back to Nepal as soon as possible, for its mountain but also for its people.
It is very hard to go to Nepal and not fall in love with it...
Give it a try!

Subin Thakuri and his team from Utmost Adventure lead us on the most incredible and memorable trekking experience of a lifetime. Our 14 day hike through the Everest region in Nepal (from Lukla, across the Chola Pass, and to the Gokyo Lakes) was carefully planned to accommodated all 8 members of our walking group (ranging from 28-65 years of age). I could have never imagined spending this time with such caring, responsible, knowledgeable and fun trekking guides. I would highly recommend this trekking company to anyone wishing to experience this special part of the world. We visited the most beautiful sites, met the most lovely people, and came away with new friends, knowledge, and an overwhelming sense of achievement. In particular, I was most impressed with our guides attention to safety. Our Mr sherpa's were absolutely fantastic and managed to carry all of our luggage with smiles and singing voices. Thank you Utmost Adventure for everything you have done for us! I have absolutely no doubt that we will return for another 'Utmost Adventure' in the very near future.

Thanks to Utmost
I walked the Kathmandu Valley Trek in February 2010. All staff were highly professional & great company. The route was interesting & the staff knowledge very good. They are also very funny guys.
All accommodation was arranged by Utmost & of a very good standard. They also arranged a tour of Kathmandu to see Temples etc.
I have no hesitation to recommend Utmost to anyone. I even tasted their own cooking I live to tell the tale!

I got the chance to trekk with Temba around Annapurna for 15 days, it was an incredible experience, amazing mountain views, meet dozens of people on the way and had a lot of fun drinking some beers after long-day walking days and crossing the Thorung La at 5416m !!! The experience was unique and Subin and all the guys working in Utmost provided me with everything I needed and more. Absolutetly recommendable company and guides to trek around.

We have been trekking form Lukla to Everest Base Camp, Kalapathar, Chola pass and Gokyo and it was a great trip. On this trip it is very important to have a good guide, and we were very happy with this tour. We have had a good feeling about the way he guided us and everything went safe and great. You can have a good trust in this agency they will take good care of you.
We hope that you will have a good trekking and enjoy the big mountains and the beauty of Nepal.
