Wheel and Wine: Cycling to Red Mountain Half-Day Tour

Red Mountain Estate, perched on a hillock overlooking Inle Lake, is the finale to a leisurely bike ride around Nyaung Shwe. Begin on two wheels as you ride through the small town’s sleepy streets, where trishaws, pedestrians and old trucks trot along at a relaxed pace. Continue to the outskirts, past farms and villages, before ending your ride at Red Mountain for a tasting of splendid red and white wines.

We will ride to the outskirts of Nyaung Shwe, where concrete buildings give way to their bamboo precursors. The streets become shadier and farms line the roads. Stop for photos and village visits along the way. A short uphill ride is the final leg before reaching Red Mountain Estate, a collaboration between local Pa-Oh and a French vintage. You’ll take a tour of their winemaking facilities before settling down at their hilltop restaurant for a tasting. Afterwards, cycle back to Nyaung Shwe.
