Experience story
See Shangri-la from the saddle on a guided outdoor biking tour from Songtsam Linka Shangri-la, with departures at 9:30 or 13:30. The roughly 2-hour ride follows a 14 km route from Hongpo Village to Dabao Monastery, crossing Jiansheng Bridge and rolling past plateau farmland, grazing yaks and Tibetan homesteads, with a hillside monastery as your turning point. The electric-assisted bicycles take the sting out of the high altitude so you can take in the scenery rather than fight the climbs. The price includes the bike, full gear, hotel pickup and drop-off, and lunch or dinner — plus bonus GoPro or drone footage of your ride. Minimum 2 people, maximum 6. Please reserve a day ahead before 20:00 at the front desk. Recommended for adults and children aged 14+.
