Pedal Nepal - Cycling Nepal and the Annapurna Circuit

This is a video of a solo bicycle tour across Nepal and the mesmerising Annapurna Circuit. All of this was shot on a GoPro Hero 5 and edited by me and my good pal Varun Mehra.
The tour spanned 40 days, I crossed the Thorung La Pass at 5416metres altitude and covered a total distance of about 1500+kms. I began my journey in Siliguri,West Bengal and finished in Banbasa,Uttarakhand via Kathmandu, the Annapurna Ciruit and Pokhara.
The route can be found here - goo.gl/EiMWoU
I made Pedal South in March 2017 and I hope to keep the Pedal series alive with another tour in August 2018. Follow me on Instagram at abhiiyer7 for related posts!

[@abhiiyer7]

Glad you find some inspiration :) Good luck,

[@santiandres5177]

Looks fucking amazing, might cut out the first bit if I were to replicate it, start at Kathmandu for the better roads and to cut out the unnecessary bike walking

[@abhiiyer7]

[@aceeeed]

A f*cking top video!

[@katrinschoen7560]

OMG, awesome video!! .. but now I've just started to ask myself: why the hell do I wanna do the same in about 7 weeks :-))

[@abhiiyer7]

You'll know why when you've made it over Thorung La at 5416metres! :p Thanks for watching, Katrin.

[@prashantsh]

Fucking Legendary!

[@gaunle6542]

Omg man you did it all on a bicylce it was hard for me to even go 2000km on motorbike❤️❤️

[@abhiiyer7]

Thanks, hukkamaker! Well I had 40 days to do this so there was no hurrying :)

[@fernandocardoso4272]

Dude normally i dont watch those videos posted in reddit but enjoyed yours! F great trip you had! Thank you. ps where are 4:04 and the lake next scene at 4:07?

[@abhiiyer7]

Hellooo! Thanks for your comments. The lake is Tilicho lake which is a side trek from the main Annapurna Circuit. It takes 2 days to get back to the AC, but I highly recommend it if you have the time. Also helps with acclimatizing the views are STUNNING!

[@AlexBaldini]

Well done sir, you got it!

[@abhiiyer7]

Thank you Alexandre! :D

[@NeerajSainiTheBoss]

[@abhiiyer7]

Thank you buddy. And aah, I am not too sure about that. I reckon it would be raining then but a quick google search should set you up!

[@surabhiyadav4959]

And how's the #wanderlust helping so far in meeting equally interesting people? Kudos for the feat!
