On two wheels
Mountain Cycling
Mountain cycling shows the valley from a new angle: quiet roads through apple orchards, villages and forest, and climbs that earn their views. Easy rides follow the Beas on the left-bank road towards Naggar; harder ones climb the Rohtang road to the meadows of Gulaba, or the forest road up to Sethan. We pick the ride for your level and ride with you.
