Himalayan Mountain Biking in Kumaon
Villages, forests, stream crossings, chai breaks, and views that make you stop pedalling just to stare. Mountain biking in Kumaon is not a race. Our MTB tours are a slow, joyful Himalayan cycling adventure — exploring a landscape that most people only see from a car window, cycling through it, you finally see it whole.
Through villages, forests, stream swims, chai snacks breaks, always smiling co bikers, ever changing spectacles. What more can we say. Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of cycling in the mountains.
Wildrift Adventures takes you through guided MTB rides in Corbett’s Kumaon country, Sattal lake side adventure, ancient forest paths, winding through remote village settlements, and windy slops. The rides also slice through Corbett’s Kumaon terrain, the Kotadoon valley, the Sattal lake, old forest tracks, and the Himalayan foothills, giving you nonstop adventure & super fun.
Wildrift amateur and pro bike rides are more than just the sport. Each ride is built around certain themes/moods. (You also have a ride your dream ride: just let us know what it is and we will create one)
Why Mountain Biking in Kumaon is Different
Kumaon has trails that most cycling maps don't show. Wildrift Adventures' MTB tours follow the Himalayan landscape — through forests, river valleys and villages that move at their own pace, making it one of the most rewarding mountain biking experiences in Uttarakhand.
Biking Themes
The Ramganga river Valley basin has various side valley trips with very remote village settlements along the smaller rivers that end up in the big blue central river.
Water Cycle
These rides take you to various water bodies in the Corbett region –lakes, dams, streams and ponds to explore the aquatic specific animal and bird life.
Chasing the Hornbill and the Blue Magpie
Cycling rides in these birds habitat looking for them, their nests and their signs and sounds. Of course we will explore their general habitat and forest homeland and their playmates.
