Runners may run as they wish during the first two days of the Stage Race. Remaining days are free to run or walk. The Mt Everest Bike Rally follows the Stage Race course. It is the only bike tour in the world offering views of Mt Everest while riding at your own pace. A demanding day of uphill riding is rewarded by single track and mountain views.
Technical riders enjoy days of riding downhill jungle trails and through villages.
Rural roads allow riders of all abilities to enjoy Himalayan culture and scenery. Both running events and the bike tour are held simultaneously. Walkers are welcome and encouraged to join the trip. Walk at your own pace with a guide and enjoy spectacular views of peaks rising from Nepal, Sikkim, Tibet, and Bhutan such as Mt. Everest and Kanchenjunga, 1st and 3rd highest in the world. Jeeps support the running aid stations and bike riders so there is always a chance of getting a lift.
