A fantastic weekend trip to Chitlang and Kulekhani Starts with a two hours or so drive to Chandragiri, from where we unload the bikes from the truck and start the biking after a short tea break.
It started with a quick check of the bikes before we started our downhill journey to Chitlang. Half an hour later, after visits of the trout farm and the village, we reached the famous French Cheese Farm at Chitlang. Had our lunch at the Cheese Farm while watching and understanding the process of making Goat Cheese. Post lunch, we continued the ride to Markhu and beyond to the campsite. Total ride distance was 22 kms, and, it was easy to moderate. Upon reaching the campsite, we had set up camp, and then went for a well deserved swim. On the second day, we took the kayaks to the water, and enjoyed the tranquil spot. Just before Lunch time, we packed up the camp, leaving no trace and started the drive back to Kathmandu
