Not so sure Dipendra. There are some steep places - and you'll need to carry the bike, not just push it along. You might need a porter or two just for that. A good friend of mine did Mustang recently on horseback starting from Jomsom and back, and apparently it was excellent fun.

Thank you for the information.

Namaste Dipendra. I'd guess you might be able to ride your bike up as far as Jomsom, if the monsoon hasn't washed out the road, but don't be surprised you your way is blocked. And if you do make it up as far as Jomsom then I would respectfully suggests you should leave your bike there and visit Mustang on foot, if you must ride then get a horse.

Thank you oli , how have you been?

There are some steep trails and some really narrow scary parts.

I doubt that ACAP will,let you through with a bike.

In the winter you can probably ride along the river, but you will have to cross the river (knee deep) many times. It's not possible in the autumn after the monsoon.
