About the
area

Pokhara Enduro Race takes place at the Arba-Bijaya hill range 10KM east of the lakeside. The highest point of the Arba hill range starts at 1400 meters above sea level, a perfect launch point for the race. The hill range has thick sub-tropical vegetation and a network of Natural tracks making it ideal for Pokhara Enduro. The variation in terrain makes these trails a perfect destination for Enduro lovers. The two river systems fencing the eastern and western flanks of the hill demarcates the Natural endpoints of the race runs.
