Mountain Biking

Mountain Biking forms an important part of adventure tourism in Darjeeling. The natural terrain of the mountain region affords the adventure lovers with an exciting range of biking trails to choose from. This experience, which is more in the nature of sport, is great fun as the rider can come face to face with the people in the countryside and to pause to talk to them or to savour the scenic grandeur of the landscape or the beauty of flora and fauna.
